Game of F'ing Thrones: the F'ing Show

Aw, he's no fun, he fell right over.
Science is Truth for Life. In FORTRAN tongue the Answer.
...so I'm supposed to find the Shadow King from inside a daiquiri?

[spoiler]I always thought the only question was, "How does Jon become zombified?"
The best answer, I think, is that Milisandri does the same kind of magic that Thoros uses on Dondarrion that keeps him alive.
Or, ghost could lick the life back into him, like Nymeria did Catelyn; but I doubt that one.
I think, in the end, the Three Headed Dragon will be Daenerys, Jon, and Tyrion.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]My guess is Bran because he can ghost ride the dragon, Daenrys and Jon.[/spoiler]

Just for fun (no spoilers unless you simply have NOT watched the series): "Seth [Meyers] Brings Melisandre to a Baby Shower".
Some spoilers if you haven't watched the last season of "Game of Thrones": Meyers interviews Clarice van Houten (AKA Melisandre) on "Late Night".

Game of Thrones to get an official "aftershow" this coming season.
While there are plenty of similar shows/podcasts elsewhere, this will be the first one that that will be on HBO itself. The hosts--Andy Greenwald and Chris Ryan--have had their own GoT podcast.

And it was good. They also have a show called the Watch about TV in general. Those dudes are great and serve up good criticism. I'm stoked for the new show.

I don't care for Walking dead but it is nice to know that Hardwick has a steady job.
Not even duct tape will fix stupid, but it can muffle the sound.
Paul and Storm sing "Westerosi Pie" (after "American Pie" of course).
I guess I should include a warning that there are spoilers if one has NOT been keeping up with the HBO series.
Oh, avoid the temptation to read the lyrics (which are printed below the button to play the song) and just listen first.

37 minutes but who's counting
If a boat is a hole in the water you throw money in, do you really want your ship to come in?
That official "after" show for GoT will be on the Monday following each new episode on Sunday.
Be sure that if you do a program search for it that you tag the regular or the HDTV version rather than the Latino version for recording (or the Latino version if you prefer). I'm guessing that HBO must set up a Spanish SPEAKING version (also available in HDTV) which is the reason why this program isn't not immediately following GoT. I guess that unlike "Talking Dead" it will not be done live.

Who knew a necklace made such a difference.

It's all in the accessories. You should see what you can do with a simple scarf!

I didn't think the show was THAT bad. Sure, a lot of room for improvement like leaving comedy to professionals like Chris Hardwick and go MUCH lighter on the puns. I also get a sense that these guys may be under considerably more restraint than Hardwick is on "Talking Dead" and may be less free to speculate, on top of being a new show that must balance between getting too lost delving into GoT series history while staying current.
Perhaps further into this season, this show can get actors and writers and directors and other crew to provide behind-the-scene insights. Maybe they can indulge in live though remote interviews with such though there is the bigger problem of the time zone difference (7 hours between LA and Iceland to 9 hours between LA and Malta).
