Good guys lose in life. When we see that and feel the emotional sting from it, it should motivate us to be more vigilant in our fight for justice.

When the good guys always win, it gives us this false sense that justice is always served and we don't have to take any action.

*SPOILERS* Hayabusa Jun 2014 #4

It depends NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #11

no, I read an inteveiw with the show's producers. They asked for the extra time and got it. TeamPooka Jun 2014 #16

If they won't let them expand to 13 episodes WolverineDG Jun 2014 #18

I klnow you want more but there is a "quality vs quantity" issue at play here. TeamPooka Jun 2014 #31

true, you should always leave the audience wanting more WolverineDG Jun 2014 #65

Somebody on westeros.org NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #17

Nosy Rattlehead? Hayabusa Jun 2014 #19

No NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #21

but, NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #22

That better not be fucking true... Hayabusa Jun 2014 #23

Don't take anyone from Canada seriously Yavin4 Jun 2014 #26

7 minutes after 9 NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #24

They gave us Stannis early NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #25

It is going to go fast. Baitball Blogger Jun 2014 #27

Hmmm...Is Cersei taking it to an extreme to avoid an undesirable marriage? Baitball Blogger Jun 2014 #28

Powerful scene with the dragons. Baitball Blogger Jun 2014 #29

yes, it was NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #35

I cried the most at that part TorchTheWitch Jun 2014 #69

I'm glad you said it first. Baitball Blogger Jun 2014 #78

that was Varys TorchTheWitch Jun 2014 #81

God-fucking-damn it... Hayabusa Jun 2014 #30

Grrrrrrr............. Liberal Veteran Jun 2014 #32

I call BULLSHIT!!! Yavin4 Jun 2014 #33

No truth about Tysha from Jaime or Tywin Hayabusa Jun 2014 #34

that was disappointing NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #36

Not to mention I wanted "Father do me a favor, die quickly, for i have a ship to catch" Liberal Veteran Jun 2014 #37

Not having her appear at the end NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #41

STFU! Darth Vader is Luke's daddy?????? Liberal Veteran Jun 2014 #50

I think I'm more upset about Tysha NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #53

Yeah, the Tysha non-reveal was probably the worst now that I think about it. Hayabusa Jun 2014 #54

if Breaking Bad can carry go back to earlier seasons NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #55

I wouldn't have expected that in the show TorchTheWitch Jun 2014 #71

I think the point was emotions: Arya got to see someone doing what she always DebJ Jun 2014 #76

Do we presume now, that Arya is stonehearted? Baitball Blogger Jun 2014 #38

kind of NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #42

Yes, I do know who Lady Stoneheart is. But, the word applied to Arya being so Baitball Blogger Jun 2014 #43

yes NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #45

She can't do that...there's future plans for the hound* didact Jun 2014 #59

I hope so! Baitball Blogger Jun 2014 #64

Some of the rumors say NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #66

I still don't believe he didn't die TorchTheWitch Jun 2014 #70

His past life NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #80

I don't remember all that TorchTheWitch Jun 2014 #83

ok, I re-read the whole bit on the Quite Isle TorchTheWitch Jun 2014 #85

The significance of the horse is that it is really savage and vicious cemaphonic Jun 2014 #88

Yes - he wants people to think he's dead - that was my take anyway? didact Jul 2014 #93

So the priest decided to go along with Tyrion when he realized the king Baitball Blogger Jun 2014 #39

Yes NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #40

I'm betting Hayabusa Jun 2014 #47

good idea NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #48

Varys was never a priest TorchTheWitch Jun 2014 #51

Thanks for all your detailed posts. DebJ Jun 2014 #63

You're very welcome TorchTheWitch Jun 2014 #68

Yes. Your descriptive explanations are superb. Baitball Blogger Jun 2014 #73

Thank you! TorchTheWitch Jun 2014 #75

Yes, I think there was a list of potential new characters NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #67

And one final outrage: Bloodraven. Hayabusa Jun 2014 #49

I think the Bloodraven in the show was a lot closer to TorchTheWitch Jun 2014 #74

Lady Stoneheart was trending on twitter NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #52

Good read to why no LS warrior1 Jun 2014 #57

I've thought about that NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #58

So, Brienne dies in the book version of GoT? Baitball Blogger Jun 2014 #72

I think with George R R Martin it's never safe to presume someone is dead DebJ Jun 2014 #77

If he uses it too often, though NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #91

Whomever wrote this Hayabusa Jun 2014 #79

I'm guessing NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #86

I thought that having Arya meet Brienne was simply fantastic. DebJ Jun 2014 #60

well, if they do give us Lady Stoneheart NewJeffCT Jun 2014 #61

Well at least that would be SOME reasoning for Lady Stoneheart's ultimate decision there. n/t DebJ Jun 2014 #62

Without Lady Stoneheart, what do you do with Brienne? Yavin4 Jun 2014 #82
