When’s the last time in the history of Game of Thrones that we had two episodes in a row that were, I don’t want to say uneventful, but maybe the word is quiet? Relaxed? Sort of, chill? Just as in the season premiere “Winterfell,” “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms” […]
It seems like Game of Thrones is coming full circle, and thank (the one true, drowned, old, new, and many-faced) god(s) for it. The season eight premiere, “Winterfell” opened with a young boy climbing up a tree, straining to catch a glimpse of a great army filling into the castle […]
I’m not necessarily the best at predicting what’s going to happen on the shows I write about. But I’ll say this, I was 100 percent correct when I closed my last Game of Thrones review with, “Until next year (or the year after at this rate).” Trailer So here we […]

As we all know, Game of Thrones likes to go big in the penultimate episode of each season. Judging by the trailer for “Beyond the Wall,†this season is no different. And the message has been telegraphed loud and clear: Winter is here. We closed last week’s episode with Jon […]
Between the dragon battles and the speechifying that sometimes take up large parts of Game of Thrones, “Eastwatch†set out to remind us that this show is actually about connections. Especially between siblings, sometimes between strangers, and in a world obsessed with heirs, even between fathers and sons. And so […]
Riding high after last week’s fiery triumph over the Lannisters, Daenerys is moving full steam ahead in her quest for the Iron Throne in this week’s episode of Game of Thrones, “Eastwatch.†In the trailer for this episode, we see Daenerys addressing the surviving Lannister soldiers, requesting that they either bend […]
