Maybe Loras will do a walk of shame?

[Ming]

I wouldn't have minded the lack of action if they had only let her make the walk of shame

At least I expected some rioting for not seeing Natalie Dormer walking around the streets nekkid...

Yes, most of the viewers were quite disappointed.

This whole season seems to be in a holding pattern. It's like they are using the whole season to set up the next season.
I WANT MORE ACTION!

Pretty disappointing that there was no bloodbath of the Sparrow guys after this buildup...At least I expected some rioting for not seeing Natalie Dormer walking around the streets nekkid...

The only thing I'm wondering is if the High Sparrow impressed King Tommen with his religious teachings or basically made him into his puppet because he knows Tommen is not Robert's son, but that of the "unholy alliance" of the Lannisters.

GRRM did another chapter reading from Winds of Winter. Don't click the link unless you want to read a summary.

Spoiler:

Euron Greyjoy really is a saddist on Ramsey Snow's level. He used to rape and abuse his youngest brother, who he now has imprisoned and tortures, plus he admits to killing three of his other brothers including Theon's dad. He also wants to marry his niece.

I felt very disappointed. Anyone else feeling battle-is interruptis?

[Dinner]

I think so but their timing is terrible as Lady Stoneheart was supposed to have been introduced shortly after the red wedding.

[Lorizael]

With the Riverlands plot coming up, I think this means we're getting

Spoiler:

Lady Stoneheart

The latest episode moved the story forward but wasn't all that interesting. Sam steals his father's sword and changes his mind about leaving her with his parents, Benjen Stark is coldhands, perky tits found her lost dragon, and the whole thing felt kind of boring.

[Buster Crabbe's Uncle]

She ain't ugly, no - a not-pale Princess Perky would look odd even with the hair bleach job, though.

[Proteus_MST]

She'd steal the dragons.

And use them on a crime spree through Westeros ...
and every non gay or eunuch person on Westeros will volunteer to be her next victim

[Buster Crabbe's Uncle]

She'd steal the dragons.

[Proteus_MST]

If Emilia Clarke ever has to pause for a longer time due to accident, pregnancy or whatever, PrisonBae might be the perfect person to replace her in her role (at least temporarily)

The story of black raven, the three eyed raven, still has my attention. He was a Targarian bastard, Hand of the King, he fought in the Dance of Dragons where the Targarians had a civil war which killed most of their dragons. He went north to join the Night's Watch but eventually became a greenseer for the CotF. He knew he was old, far beyond normal human years, and he was wedded to the tree with tree roots growing through his body (including his head with a root coming out of his lost eye) so he used his powers to find another greenseer to replace him and that was to be Bran Stark.

I noticed black raven did not want Bran to try to onfluence the past, maybe because Black Raven had once tried tp do so and ot had turne out bad. Black raven was the uncle to the Mad King who was said to hear voices when no one was there. Could it be Black Raven tried to talk to the mad king? To tell hom about the whote walkers and the need to burn the dead? That would explain the maf king's obsession with fire and "burning them all". So maybe Black Raven caused the mad king to burn Ned's father and brother thus starting off Robert's rebellion.

Yep. I've seen that video as well. An interesting theory, and I hope it proves true.
