Actually, I think the Karstark girl is still alive. At least we didn't see her die.

But yeah, all these nuclear families with single dads and only childs in the TV series are not going to do the survival of their ancient feudal houses any favors.

She went with Theon and the Ironborn to defend bran, and since he was the last man standing i assume she died. Also says they died on the game of thrones wiki

The one Arya met and hugged? I never knew!

Edit: She certainly does resemble Lyanna I thought at the time but I wasn't sure aha

Long Night: Bran thanked Theon; Bells: Arya thanked Hound; Last Stark; Jon made a big deal of refusing to thank Ghost to prove that he ain't a Stark, he is Aegon Targaryan, 19th of his name.

There was some legal shenanigan that Jon is the true heir of the Mad King. Danny has proven beyond all possible doubt that she is the True heir of the mad King.

Scuttlebutt says episode 3 was filmed over 55 consecutive nights. It would only take 24 days ifn they had filmed it during the day and applied dark filters. Have DnD nevah heard of camera tricks? Did they use real Dragons?

Anyone still team Danny at this point?

Baltenstein who do you/did you support? I’ve seen you criticize many sides. Are you neutral?

Honestly Ben would probably be a decent king. I mean one he was an accountant and state auditor for some time so he is good with finances. He managed Pawness pretty well as city manager and became a congressman so he is knowledgeable of politics and civil administration. Like I know this is a joke and I am taking this way to seriously but Ben with some competent advisers might actually be a decent leader.

Westeros cracked and covered in rubble. Subtle.

I wonder where they got that huge Targaryen banner. Who made that?

And how did Grey Worm get there first?

Fucking lol, dragon wing Daenerys.

Okay, snow-covered Drogon was a good shot. Snowgon.

Ding, dong, the queen is dead. Wait, there are no bells left...

Drogon has been having a great episode. Mad props to the scaly boi.

Go back in the dungeon, Edmure.

SAMWELL TARLY INVENTS DEMOCRACY. PRESIDENT SAMWELL.

Ugh, fine, I guess King Bran will do.

The Sky stream is proving to be utterly garbage.

The real reason Tyrion's upset was because he realized that he's now responsible for all the Lannister's debt
