Finally, we come to the Red Wedding. This episode cover three major threads and delivers on two. Sigh…
A very cohesive episode with only three extended “threads” of narrative, allowing it to really focus on the characters we love…
This week we have the annual George R. Martin episode, written by the lovable bear himself…
Some of the best character work yet! This season is just too good…
Kissed by fire brings us some good hot fun…

Another week, another episode, and this one full of some great scenes from old favorites and new…
