But hot damn, did the actors (shoutout especially to Paddy Considine) ever rise to the occasion to bring life to their counterparts in the source material - and the writers, under the guidance of GRRM, really brought what was originally written as a history textbook to life.

And the thing is... this was all exposition to the good stuff.
Pulling word for word from the audiobook/book, making one sided perspectives more human, etc.


They did a great job.

I feel like that will happen sooner in the season. Perhaps in the first couple episodes.

And frankly, compared to some of the other stuff that's about to happen, it's just not that interesting from a storytelling perspective.

He will. He is too arrogant not to.

By killing Luke, I think he killed the last bit of the boy in himself. My prediction is that he'll be unambiguously villainous moving forward.

Really, the show is setting the canon - as long as GRRM is involved like he is.
That's true. Fire and Blood is an in-universe history book so there's lots of room for interpretation.

I can't be the only one who was pronouncing Cregan like Kree-gihn, right?

Instead it's pronounced like Megan.. don't like that at all.

His face rang a bell in the back of my head, but I never would have put two and two together there. Dude has range (/obv).

For me, it’s “You’ll have to find your dick first, Shamu!”

Took me awhile to get through all the episodes because after SNF I would generally fall asleep and had to get caught up which generally had me a few weeks behind. But I was sick last week prior to a vacation and got to finish the season. Thought it was brilliant! Can't wait for season 2.

Yeah that’s the opinion of most in here. Season 8 really punched us in the gut. Along comes this season and it’s like the best years of GOT. No Hardhome/battle of the bastards level episode yet but they have 3 more seasons to produce the best dragon fight of all time
