Reactions to ep.1:
God I love Varys! I can't properly express how much I've missed seeing him in action. His two-man act with Tyrion is everything right now. Boo to the unnecessary nudity. I guess they're trying to even it out by showing man ass, but it's still unnecessary. Lancel looks completely different. I'm struggling trying to figure out if it's a recast. Even his voice is different. Stannis is such a fucking asshole! I hate how self-righteous his hypocritical ass is. I'm surprised they killed Mance so soon. Oh well.
I didn't really care for the Cersei flashback. They psychic (Maggie the Frog) was nothing like I expected. She looked a lot like Osha(?), the one that has Rickon Stark.

I have a hard time keeping track of all the names and I couldn't figure out who he was supposed to be. Apparently it is the same actor but, wow, he looks different. This helped me out a little: Game of Thrones: A Complete Guide to all the Unfamiliar Faces in the Season 5 PremiereI'm going to miss Charles Dance. Michel Huizman is unbelievably hot.

I've seen three eps already and have no willpower so I'll be watching the fourth tomorrow and then wait a month for HBO to catch up. No spoilers but this season is off to a great start!

I have zero will power, and stayed up until 4:30 a.m. watching all 4 episodes. So far, I'm loving Jon Snow, something, I never thought I would ever say. This is the first time I'm actually looking forward to the happenings at the wall. Loved Sassy Sam giving people the business in a certain scene. Margery snarking on Cersei is pretty great too. The amount of shade being thrown is astounding. I am sad that I have another month to see the next new episode, but...I regret nothing!

I'm staying away from the leaked episodes since I can never find one that isn't riddled with viruses.
Good for you, Jon Snow. Anything that steals Melisandre's thunder is fine by me. When she started speechifying AGAIN about the lord of light I so wanted Mance to be all, "God, just kill me already. I'd rather burn than listen to your bullshit." Melisandre bugs the shit out of me.
Grey Worm and Missandei need to learn how to get creative. Surely he has other erogenous zones if his junk is totally gone. If he really doesn't know why his buddies are going to the brothels, he needs to ask them. Missy is totally DTF and he should take advantage of that.
I think it is good that Varys and Tyrion are heading to Dany. I think bringing the characters together will make things better.

In previous seasons, I could tolerate Melisandre and even Stannis, but this go round? No way. I am completely over their bullshit. The sooner they both die, the better. At least the rest of the douchebags on the show acknowledge that they are full of shit, but between the Red Woman's speechifying, and heavy-handed seduction tactics, and Stannis trying to force everyone to like him/bow to him? No way. I've never seen the honor that people rave about in Stannis. I don't know why it bothers me so much all of a sudden, but it does. I guess because there's been no challenge, and thus no change with Team Red God. I need to see them humbled. Maybe if/when Melisandre tries to burn Shireen (that's being telegraphed pretty damned hard), he'll wake up, and choke her out. Right before he's killed by a white-walker. And Missandei and Grey Worm are my OTP on GoT. I'm so ready for some cuddling, or even some cunnilingus between them. There are ways around this kids. Figure it out.

Michel Huizman is unbelievably hot. [/random thoughts] <-----------Yes, he is. I don't even watch this show, but I heard that Huisman was in it now -- and naked. I may have to start watching.

Thanks to a little bird I watched the leaked episodes...and I really can't wait for episode 5! Love sassy Sam, he gives it and gives it GOOD. Jon is awesome. But I'm disappointed the writers passed up on delivering one of the most epic lines in the entire series:
"Edd, fetch me a block."
Conleth Hill and Peter Dinklage need more Emmys. Can't wait to see more of Dinklage and Iain Glenn together.
Poor Sansa. Poor, poor Sansa. I love that she's becoming a player but if there is any place worse than King's Landing for her to be, she found it.
Stannis has a tender moment (as tender as Stannis can get) that humanizes him. I was hoping they'd do something like this since in the books, for all of his faults, he loves his daughter.
Yup, Barristan's purpose in the story was to tell Dany about her family. Mission accomplished and...uh, oh...
The show is starting to set up for the Big Reveal of Jon's parentage because they were laying it on thick with the clues.

DON'T SPOIL ME, BRO! Seriously, SPOILERS ahead. Thoughts on tonight's episode: So Tyrion is a "shoot and reload" kinda guy. I figured he would be. The nudity equity has gotten much better, at least so far. Three sets of boobies to two shots of man ass. Shallow note: speaking of man ass, Michiel Huisman's is mighty fine. Those dragons are NOT happy with mama right now. Can't blame them. I wonder if this is the end for Mance or if they're going to follow the book's storyline. Time will tell. Man, they don't play do they? Respected actors or no-name, glorified extras -- GOT don't care! You are all toast. (Some, quite literally.)
