Because Daenerys took her dragons North of the Wall in season 7 to rescue the Westerosi Avengers.

I believe he’s suggesting that her dragons should have refused to fly North of the Wall but B&B just didn’t give a shit enough to stick to the established lore.

Ahh I forgot about that part of that disaster. Makes sense now.

You’re right. We saw him gagged. We only heard his muffled screams and the squelching of the blade cutting off his head, all while his horrified mother watched.

A family picture!

There’s one very intriguing monkey wrench that the tv show’s course of events for Blood and Cheese throws into play that the books did not.

Keep in mind that "the source material" on this one is a book that was written as a historical treatise by a Maester. So there are not first-hand viewpoints.

The show is actually providing more insight into motivations, for once, than books can. Kind of cool.

In the book it says aegon the conqueror flew his dragons to the wall but they refused to go father.

I did. The twins were small so I spent a lot of time holding a sleeping child and reading.

After watching S2E1 it was clear that I needed to go back and rewatch S1

Not sure if I was still suffering GoT fatigue/hangover or if I was watching something else that was more captivating to me, but man, I'm consuming S1 with much more engagement this time around

There's some necessary gaps, but the amount of ground they covered, while still keeping it high quality is much more impressive than I remember and likely gave it credit for

So glad I went back to binge S1, its an incredible season. Feel like I'm much more ready and excited for S2 now

I read the book when it was released. I quit watching season 1 about halfway through. I didn't think it was good.

Sounds like your taste in TV shows is as bad as your taste in professional football teams.
