      Indeed, and even though it's slightly more deliberate in the series, it's the same motivation. It's not some formal torture or ceremony, it's because Khal Drogo, like everyone else, has just had enough of Viserys and his whinging.

        I've just finished watching it. Wow, what an end. I admit I'm usually pretty squeamish when it comes to violence on screen (when I went to cinema to watch Sin City all those years ago, I spent half of the movie looking away or with my eyes closed, LOL), but this crowning was so terrible that I couldn't tear my eyes off the screen. And Daenerys' last words sent chills down my spine. So dispassionate. Wow.

        Ned, Arya, Littlefinger, Bran - all were awesome as usual. I was actually relieved to have a week without Jaimie, but I really miss Jon now. Does somebody know if he will appear in the next episode?

        Also, isn't Cat's nephew annoying?

          I found him quite funny, actually.

            To be fair, Viserys was a complete bastard who threatened her unborn son, and that was just the last of many things. But yeah, Harry Lloyd's great acting really helped me feel sorry for him in his final moments, it was a horrible way to die. My Mum thought it was hilarious though. (I'm now scared of her. )

            Jon Snow has a lot of scenes next week. However I'd say, having seen the ep, that it's actually Jason Momoa who steals the show in episode 7, he has a fantastic scene where he just is brilliant.

            I dunno, I could relate to him when he wanted to here the rest of Tyrion's story about the Jackass and the honeycomb in the brothel.

              Yup. Awesome scene.

              Yeah! I wanted to know the rest of the story, too!

                Viserys had been declaring himself a dragon for most of the series and was being a total **** to Dany so I didn't feel too sorry for him. That and if he had seen her immunity to heat and fire, I think he would never have accepted it and tried to kill her out of jealousy. If Drogo hadn't disposed of him, I think Dany would have had to get rid of him herself eventually.

                I haven't watched episode 7 yet but I'm looking forward to seeing Jon and the Night's Watch boys again.

                  Sam Tarly is without a doubt my favourite character, he just cracks me up every time.

                    I watched episode seven - couldn't resist. It'll suck to wait a little longer for episode eight, given the epic cliffhanger and all, but I needed my fix dammit.

                        This is my plan as well. Plus playing the Witcher 2 should cover my dark fantasy needs in the meanwhile.

                          I was just going to write something equally dark and awesome. It passes the time.

                          Hah. Sam's so awesome.

                            I hate that little bastard Joffrey after 107 even more

                            after 106 I started to like Cersei, but again, after 107 I hate her even more. It's great how all characters aren't entirely good or bad

                              Indeed and even the good characters have their flaws. Ned might be a good man, but he's so hung up on doing the "honourable" thing that he'll let the Seven Kingdoms burn so he can say his honour was intact.

                                That Samsa girl is bloody annoying and Joffrey is really creepy-looking. I kind of want someone to strangle her.
