Nice slam at the end... couldn't resist I bet. Now you feel better? Important? Almighty?

No. Just annoyed when you post the answer twice on two different pages and people still get it wrong. Plus I was really tired at work last night so that may have aided my frustration. I wanted to be at home watching it again on my couch.

Nope, that was the plan from the get go: Destroy their supply line, siege and make everyone at King's Landing starve, which is good but not as good as burning the Red Keep only and then grab all the marbles but whatever.

Right. You can't eat gold.

I haven't seen Dany's forces discussing their access to resources recently. But given the loss of Highgarden and Dorne, it seems like they should be concerned with that. Of course, their primary goal was more to weaken the Lannister forces, signal resolve and military credibility after some major losses (probably the biggest goal), and interrupt Cersei's supply line in the process.

Excellent on so many levels....now I feel some kind of way about Dany

I actually didn't even put together the connection between that scene, and his experience with the Mad King. Very well done, and it does add another layer of complexity to the scene, and to Jaimie's emotional state there.

Assuming things don't go off the rails from here, and despite there being more inconsistencies in this show, I can see Game of Thrones supplanting the Wire in my mind as the greatest show out there.

I get what you're saying but overtaking The Wire?

Yeah. I think this is probably a situation where the newness is affecting my objectivity. Littlefinger ain't got **** on Mayor Carcetti's keen manipulative powers.

Not for nothing, I know this a thrones thread but I am often so envious of people who have not yet seen the wire....great show, had it all
