Cool map that shows where most major characters have traveled in the series.  Bit confusing, but still pretty decent.

It is up to the most recent book, so contains spoilers for those still reading or only watching the show

I let these voices in my head
Influence me, to some degree
Now I'm not sure of anything

The maps in the books never quite give a proper sense of scale. That one does.

My fellow Game of Throners, I will see you in April.

What a finale.

SPOILERS
Locking Doreah in with Xaro was new. Well, the fact that she locked them in at all was new. I enjoyed it.

Brienne's returned brutality on the northerner rapist was excellent.

I expected to see the Red Wedding, but I can hold off.

The three horn blasts sent shivers down my spine.

You know nothing, Jon Snow.

The red wedding is still some way off.

That wont be til mid S4.  It was towards the end of Storm of Swords.

Edit: Or end of S3.

Yeah, I guess I was getting ahead of myself.

OH! OH! OH!

When Jaqen H'ghar was all like "Yo, arya, come with me." I'm yelling in my head "DO IT! GO! DO IT ARYA! GOOOOOO!" just as I did when I read it.

Well then, that's that for another year.

A proper spoiler question, not one you can go "Oh, I'll just click it. How much can actually be given away?" Answer: A lot.

One thing I don't understand now is how they are going to keep Theon hidden away for two seasons.

MEGA SPOILERS

Well, he wasn't exactly hidden. At least not from the reader. We all knew exactly where he was.

Also, Poor Jeyne.

Continuing mega spoilers...

Well yeah, but not until 'Dance With Dragons' when he reappeared. But maybe they will show his... umm... deconstruction over the course of the next few years.

Oh god, I hope not. That shit made me cringe as I read it, though admittedly less than or equal to as much as I did when I read about Ramsay forcing Jeyne to fuck his dogs.

You know I haven't either, but I love being spoiled.  Then I read Rhooja's and now I'm like WELP.  MAYBE I'LL JUST... NEVER READ AGAIN.

I assumed he was dead, until ADWD.  I dunno, I often don't pick up on the niche stuff, and often forget some of the big things (Eg. GRRM saying outright that Jorah was the spy on Dany in the first book).

At one point they offered uhhh Catelyn I think the skin from Theon's pinky finger, or something like that.  So I assumed he was alive and being flayed or otherwise abused, and just not mentioned because that happens a lot.

While I loved the ending it was a pretty crappy season overall. Now I have to read the books because I'm not waiting another year.

Well… I think the biggest unresolved issue with the end of the season is:

What am I gonna watch now?

I’d been hanging out with some friends every Sunday to watch thrones… they want to continue the Sunday night activity with true blood… but… er…  totally not my cup of tea.

I missed season 2 of Sherlock cause PBS scheduled it against thrones… I didn’t think to dvr it, so now im waiting for it to hit Netflix… but that’s all of three episodes I think. Did anyone manage to catch it? was it good?

Also: anyone have any recommendations?

Breaking Bad's final season starts in a few weeks. its one of the few shows that fill the void of Game of Throne. Game of Thrones spring tv season, Breaking Bad summer season, Dexter fall season, Walking Dead winter season.

Woody,

Yes, Breaking Bad is pure win.

some other ideas:

Deadwood
Dexter
Rome
Boardwalk Empire
Spartacus
The Wire
The Shield
The Sopranos (which you've probably seen. One of my all time favorites.)

Ah thanks for those...

and... If you liked the Sopranos and if you liked Rome...

You should totally get your hands on I Claudius.

And if you like Dereck Jacobi, you would probably like Brother Cadfael.

I don't really like television that much so minus some h2, syfy, or disc shows my tv days are numbered.
