Oh, Game of Thrones. How I wish you were anything but what you are. Or, at least, how I wish you’d chosen another path instead of this one. Let’s call this the roundtable of disappointment. Last week we were angry,…
‘Game of Thrones’ 8×05 Review: The Path Of Least Resistance
Ironic that I keep thinking of this phrase, one that I heard often in my childhood. Ironic because “The Bells” aired on Mother’s Day, and this was my mom’s phrase anytime we took the easy way out, which I will admit,…
‘Game of Thrones’ 8×04 Roundtable: “The Last of the Starks”
We’re just two episodes away from the end of Game of Thrones, and after what had been a superb season 8 so far, “The Last of the Starks” was just a disappointing episode all around, one that seems to be…
‘Game of Thrones’ 8×04 Review: We Played Ourselves
To be fair, we should have known. To be fair, we played ourselves. We always knew this story wasn’t likely to have a happy ending, and yet the first three episodes of season eight had lulled us into a false…
‘Game of Thrones’ 8×03 Roundtable: “The Long Night”
Well, THAT happened. And by that, we mean, of course, the thing with Arya stabbing the Night King and ending the Long Night, but also absolutely every other second of this episode. Because love it or hate it, I think…

‘Game of Thrones’ 8×02 Roundtable: “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms”
Well, color me delighted, and shocked and utterly terrified. Because that was probably the most emotionally satisfying episode in the whole of Game of Thrones, and that doesn’t seem like it bodes well for the upcoming battle. But let’s not…
‘Game of Thrones’ 8×02 Review: A Tale of Three Love Stories
Winter is here, and with it comes the army of the dead, we only have four more episodes left of Game of Thrones, and I can – and should – legitimately spend every single second of this review talking about…
‘Game of Thrones’ 8×01 Roundtable: “Winterfell”
Winter is here at last. At least, the metaphorical winter, aka the last season of Game of Thrones, and, of course, with it being the final season, we couldn’t stop at a weekly review, because there’s just so much to…
‘Game of Thrones’ 8×01 Review: The True Meaning of Family
It’s hard to believe we’re finally here. We’ve been waiting for so long to see these moments, there’s so much hope and fear and anticipation behind every reunion, every piece of the story unfolding the way seasons and seasons and…
