All the changes from the book were fine with one quibble: They should have drowned Theon and then given him CPR.
I really liked this show until all hell broke loose with the war starting (Stark's death), now things are falling off for me.
I was disappointed at the lack of an Arrow to the Knee meme for Spartacus with the Egyptian. Something like...
"I was about to kill Crixus, until I took an arrow to the knee."
Can we get confirmation?Why? That never happened to Theon. Only the priests of the drowned god go through that ritual.
Can we get confirmation?
I agree, it is not shown happening to Theon in the books, but I did get the impression it happened to everyone, not just the priests. Has anyone else read the books and can comment?
GF and I agree first 2 episodes have been SUPER DULL. It pales in comparison to first episodes of S1 that hooked you right in. I hope some fun happens tonight.
Magic was, and is, a strong force in the weave of this story's fabric. How do you feel about the Wall and the Others?GF and I didn't like the last part of giving birth to a shadow creature.
It felt too 'fantasy' for us. Do you know what I mean? I liked the series so far as a serious period piece with a splash of fantasy, not become a cartoon LOTR.
Anyone else agree? Or explain the ending?

there is going to be a lot more magic going forward.
The Shadows / Stannis' children are key elements in the books.
I would think once you knew Dragons existed you'd have just switched channels if fantasy was not acceptable to you and 'her'.
I'm pretty sure I remember someone here saying that Stannis never got with the fire chick in the book. So, how the hell did he end up fathering the Shadows?
I don't think it showed them going at it but it was implied in the books.
