Only thing that would make that meme better is if his nub was in the shot.

I shouldn't have looked in here. But are these seasons all from the first book? Just curious.

Jaime Lannister, a new part of the Channel 4 news team!

Despite the past two slow episodes, They're still the best thing on TV. Margery's mother or grandmother I can't remember which. She is easily becoming one of my favorite characters. I like that they're giving her scenes with all the heavy hitters. Tyrion, Varys, Tywin, Cersei and she outsmarts all. Except maybe Tywin since she gave in.

I didn't really think the last episode was all that slow, I mean there was a fucking bear fight.

Season 1 is book one Season 2 is book 2 and Season 3 is the first half of book 3. Next season will be the other half. Then the 4th and 5th book will prob be spread over 2 to 3 season then they've caught up with the book with the 6th one still not out yet and prob being a few years off still.

but their changing some elements aren't they?

 

[Rated R Superstar]

I wasn't sure, but at the same time haven't read the book so couldn't really say. My downloads just say based off the same book. I was pretty close to asking how so much can shit can be in one book.

 

[Ben]

There's been some character left off, but there hasn't been any huge changes. Biggest thing that's been different is Gendry getting bought by Mel from the brotherhood to bring to Stannis...in the books that never happens and the last we've seen of him he's still with the brotherhood.

 

[John McHenry]

That's potentially a huge change.

 

[Chris]

Yeah, I haven't read any of the books, but it seemed like they had something fairly big planned for Gendry after the last episode.

 

[Ben]

Personally I like the change as he does nothing in the books after they join the brotherhood.

 

[CaptainxBumout]

From what I hear, they're merging Gendry and another bastard together because not sure how many more characters the show can handle. I haven't red any of the books but I found it fairly obvious the red woman was going to leave to get Gendry the second she left Stannis. Maybe make another shadow baby idk.
