Revelations, reunions, and Drogon – oh my! Game of Thrones’ fourth episode, “The Spoils of War,” was the season’s shortest, but they certainly didn’t skimp on the action. We saw the return of the catspaw dagger from season one, more proof of the White Walker threat, another Stark coming home, and a stunning display of […]

Alas, she met her bitter end on Sunday night in one of the show’s most heartrending and well-acted scenes. Tyene didn’t get to […]

Continue reading →This is it. Our last season 6 episode before Game of Thrones – finally! – returns to our screens tomorrow night. “The Winds of Winter” is a more than worthy end to a (mostly) worthy sixth season, and even surpasses the drama, tension, and grandeur of episode nine, “Battle of the Bastards.” It begins with […]
