I think we should have a thread where we can discuss the show given that most of us probably watch (and are hooked to) it.

Keep it up to date with its screenings (about 12pm Mondays) but if you've read the books please don't "predict" the future.

Here's the preview for the next episode. Don't watch it if you're not current and don't read what I have posted underneath.

Spoiler:
So who do you think Tyrion will pick to fight for him? I'm guessing Jaime since Bronn has disappeared. Besides, Tywin would then be fucked as if he lost he'd lose both sons and therefore no heir.

Also worthy of talk is how far and deep does littlefinger's conspiracy run? Has he orchestrated all of the main storylines so far?

So upset there is only 4 episodes left this year and there is a 2 week hiatus between episodes 7 and 8.
[ADMIN EDIT: Put the spoiler bit in spoiler tags please.]

Spoiler:
I like your line of thought on choosing Jamie...
But I suspect something even more calculated. Remember he's a very brilliant strategist... and has been sitting alone in a cell with nothing but his mind to occupy him for the last however long that was. Planning.
For example, what would happen if he called Tywin himself?

As for littlefinger, I just hope he kills off that weird chick soon...

Well it all depends on motivation too. If
Spoiler:
Tywin and Cersai pick The Mountain to fight for the crown (as the preview as well as the title for episode 8 allude to) then Tyrion might be better off naming Oberyn the most vicious of all bisexuals to fight given him wanting revenge. As well as Jaime not standing a chance with only one hand.

E6 was one of the best episodes ever, more naked women and it would have been perfect

I must catch up.
Funny that he types his books on a 1991 DOS system using Wordstar 4.0 . No internet, no leaks.

they've really cut down on the # of naked women. and the ones they DO have tend to be not exactly 'hotties'.

shame that.
