I actually think it's a good thing they've toned that down a bit since season one..

Indeed! There hasn't been a sexposition scene since early second season, which means people are tuning in because the show is damn good and not just the nudity.

You forgetting about the Podric Payne scene in episode 3 of this season?

There was no sexposition there and there was no sex either.

I'm trying to determine whether he was being honest or not, if he was just lying to her. I mentioned earlier, they are doing a good job at creating sympathy for a character who deserves none and reinventing his character almost. I'm starting to 'like' him actually.

You can think that, but that "Jaime. My name is Jaime" line sealed his honesty, IMO. That line made me emotional even though I knew it was coming!

Overall solid episode as always when it comes to Game of Throne. Best scene was definetly Jaime's bath tub speech. I've never thought about the actor much, I just always thought he fit his role well, but I have give him some props here, amazing emotion, great monologue. One of the shows best emotional moments for sure.

I just wanna say, Tywin is amazing! The way he let Cersei know about Tyrion's marriage so she could all smug and shit and then he put her in her place with her own marriage... PRICELESS!

That was great! That guy is a real good actor but I have to admit in every scene he's in I expect Edfie Murphy to show up so Tywin can try and get 'the knife' from him. I can't shake him being the devil from 'The Golden Child'

Great episode. No crazy happenings like last week's, but great all around. The Lannisters really shined, between Jaime's monologue and Tywin being the baller that he always is.

The Hound duels a guy wielding a flaming sword who gets cut in half and come backs to life 10 seconds later and you say "no crazy happenings"?  :rollin

Yeah, they were really good! I thought, and I couldn't be the only one, that Shireen and Selyse would be cut from the story, so to see them made me smile and actually puts a new dimension to why Stannis is so dull and/or emotionless.

Officially he is a Baratheon (even if it doesn't get much more Lannister than having two Lannister parents :p). So yea, let me change it to 'all Lannisters except Joffrey are awesome'.

I liked it, it really showed how uncomfortable Robb is in his current position.

Something that is happening in the series that I'm not liking is that, apparently, Loras Tyrell will not be made a member of the Kingsguard. Which makes me doubt the appearances of some scenes of the books I really liked.

I liked the episode a lot. My main problem with this season is that there is so much going on that each episode only shows one or two scenes with some of the major characters instead focusing more on them. I totally get it having read the books that there is so much happening that its difficult to get it all in, but I would have liked to see more of what's happening beyond the wall. I would like more than one dnaerys scene. I would like lots of tyrion in every episode. I would like more Bran and more Arya.

Jaime is pretty awesome though and Beric/Thoros are very likeable.

The scene with Tywin and his children was amazing.
