Game of Thrones “The Queen’s Justice”
At the end of last season, and even throughout this season’s premiere, it seemed Daenerys had all the means to stroll in and take the Iron Throne without much difficulty. It seemed like good had a chance to triumph over evil, and swiftly with the support of the masses. Of…
Game of Thrones Preview: “The Queen’s Justice”
After last week’s Game of Thrones episode closing on Euron’s sneak attack that wiped out a big portion of Daenerys’s fleet, “The Queen’s Justice” is going to be about the fallout. Cersei will certainly be pleased, maybe receiving her “gift†of Ellaria Sand, who Cersei has a personal vendetta against for killing…
Game of Thrones “Stormborn”
Game of Thrones has a villain problem. It’s clear that this season’s “big bad†is Euron Greyjoy, the insufferable uncle of Yara and Theon. He blew in at the tail end of season six, a menacing figure shrouded in mystery. And although he’s somehow proved himself a capable conqueror (I find…
Game of Thrones Preview: “Stormborn”
It looks like things are escalating and fast in this week’s episode of Game of Thrones. The trailer for “Stormborn” is action-packed and suggests that the discoveries from last week’s “Dragonstone” are already going to play a part in this week’s episode. And “Stormborn†is a shoutout to Daenerys’s nickname,…
Game of Thrones “Dragonstone”
Historically, the season premieres of each season of Game of Thrones ends up a little thin. And by thin, I mean that bringing the audience up to speed on all of the storylines in this show is a daunting task, and the result is that these episodes can feel void of heft,…
Three Things We Want to See in Game of Thrones Season 7

Game of Thrones “The Winds of Winter”
This season of Game of Thrones has been about expectation. Expectation our characters have and the ones all of us watching have. And a lot of times, these expectations let us down. Bran finds out his noble father wasn’t so noble; Tyrion finds out dealing with the slavers isn’t so…
Game of Thrones Season 6 Finale Preview: “The Winds of Winter”
After nine harrowing weeks, all we have of this season of Game of Thrones is the finale. With the more limited scope of last week’s “Battle of the Bastards,” “The Winds of Winter” is posed to cover a whole lot of ground to compensate.
Game of Thrones “Battle of the Bastards”
For all of my complaints about Game of Thrones’ inconsistency in quality this season — that the dialogue is weak, the scenes are too pandering, twists too predictable — the show never fails to be fun. It’s a show that envelopes you, brings you in, and it’s probably the only…
