I love pug Joffrey.

This piece in Digital Spy pretty much says the thing we were all waiting for in the last episode won't happen. Could it be a double bluff? I am pretty gutted.

I doubt it's a double bluff unfortunately, I have given up hope on Stoneheart.
she obviously doesn't have that much to do with the next few books, or they are just going to change things and veer further away from the books.
I find it hard to tell if I am disappointed that my favourite parts have been cut and sulking a bit or if I am genuinely losing interest in the show.
I don't want to be a " if they do this I'm not watching anymore" sort of person, but I am liking the show less and less because I don't feel it measures up to the books, there are so many bits they change and cut and I tend to come away feeling a bit disappointed.
I know they're two different entities and I shouldn't really compare, but it's hard not to. I just don't feel as excited about got as I did about breaking bad and the wire for example.

I'm not a lover of Lady Stoneheart. The shock value was great in the book but that was it. After that she adds very little to the story but takes significantly from the cold finality that the Red Wedding gave to the Stark's tragedy.

I really wonder where the show is going vis a vis the books. I think books 4 and 5 are going to be much harder to get on screen anyway because the story slows down considerably after the bam, bam, bam of Book 3. Some of the shocks we have already seen, for example the reveal of Reek and I think it will be harder to make the stories great TV.

Yes I think we will see more and more spoilers from TWOW, which isn't going to be out anytime soon.
