I just know I would not watch any show that I complained that much about.
In fact I stopped watching House of Cards for that very reason. It got dumb and annoying.

So let's recap the Starks.
Ned - beheaded
Cat - throat slit
Robb - watches wife and baby get killed, then gets stabbed
Jon - death by stab-a-thon
Sansa - raped
Arya - blind
Bran - paralyzed
Rickon - ?
Ned - beheaded

Robb - watches wife and baby get killed, then gets stabbed
Jon - death by stab-a-thon
Sansa - raped

Wow. I thought this was a discussion thread.
The "if you don't like it then quit" response is tired. This is my favorite show of all time. I'm not going to quit, but I will express an opinion that unlike every other season finale, the anticipation for what happens next is not as great for me.
The breakdown of the different points was fine, but it seems like a rage-quit when you throw in "I really don't care what happens next" when we all know you'll be sitting there tuned in for S6E1 like the rest of us.
so if the show has surpassed the books in some regards, who is going to protect the book readers from spoilers on their thread??

Ned - Didn't play the game, deserved it.
Cat - meh
Robb - Should have kept his word, deserved it.
Jon - Made dumb choices, deserved it.
Sansa - The strategist, deserves death...not rape.
Arya - I don't know wtf she's doing, deserves blindness.
Bran - Told not to climb, promises not to, climbs anyway, deserves paralysis.
Rickon - ?, deserves ?

Just go to the other thread.
You don't scare me anymore!

100% serious.
rob, cat, bran, arya, and Sansa all got what they deserved. Actually cat and rob got off easy.
Ned was just an idiot. And Jon made tough choices but they were the right choices.
I'll play. Explain why Bran, Arya, and Sansa deserved it.
And saying Bran deserved it for climbing doesn't count. Neither does Sansa deserves it for "stupidity" or some such.

2. Dany - out in the middle of nowhere surrounded by Dothraki who she will either win over with her courage and fortitude, or be given to a horse lord for a wife, or both. Wait, is it Season 1 already?
There is no way that Dany isn't going to take control of he Dothraki. She is done bowing down to anyone. I think next season she will be kicking major ass with Drogon.

Why did Dany take off her ring and drop it?

Bran gave his word he wouldn't climb. He broke it. So he's paralyzed for breaking his word. Rob is dead for breaking his word. Sansa deserves death for her silly infatuation with Joff. She's a meaningless character who has contributed nothing and is just along for the ride. For a brief stint we thought she might grow into something more when she and little finger were colluding. But that has since been thrown out the window like a oath breaking climbing sibling.
I think that was a ring indicating her relationship with the Mereen yahoo, so she had to ditch it.
show only clues i think show jon snow will come back in some capacity
1. shireen's death now seems completely pointless for stannis's plans
2. jaqen states only death can pay for life
3. mirrimaz dur (the witch from season 1 finale) says the same thing when daenarys asks her to heal Drogo (her unborn child is sacrificed to save drogo)
4. melisandre has stated visions can be misinterpreted, returns to the wall
5. the night's watch will likely burn jon's body to prevent him from becoming a wight
given theses clues, i think jon will resurrect from his funeral pyre by the lord of light's magic and shireen's sacrifice.
whether he comes back like he was, or a catatonic zombie like Drogo, or as a dragon or wolf or whitewalker i have no idea. but i think his character's story is not over yet.

Oh so all children who break their promises deserve paralysis. Ok.
quote:The "after the show" segment explained that she left it as a breadcrumb for others to find.

or to leave evidence behind for those searching for her.
she's know jorah's not going to stand pat if he survived the pits.

which seems highly improbable given that it is in the middle of nowhere. Without a GPS, that thing is lost.

She dropped it to leave a clue for whoever might come looking for her. Dothraki leave a rather obvious trail, so it was a smart idea on her part.

Last I checked, the King's Road ran in two directions.

GRRM deals in extremes. Which is why I included the rob example.
Sorry but Sansa wanted her high born arranged marriage and she got it. Three times. And the one time she got a good guy she crapped all over him.

I would look in the middle of that for clues. duh.
then track the horses.
quote:Yeah. Was thinking about that this morning. If I came across a cyclone of horse trails around a point, I'd be investigating that area pretty thoroughly.quote:

Rob broke his word. Ef him
She wanted to marry an honorable person who was a prince. She got neither.

She was still backing Joffrey after the incident with the butcher's son by the river. While she didn't know the extent of his immorality, he certainly hadn't shown himself to be honorable at that point.
Because she was blind and thought it was truly Arya's fault.
If Jon really is the blood of the dragon he won't burn.

Viserys burned like a mofo.
