I remember visiting this website once...
It was called Nutter takes the Directors Guild Award, while Headey charms on NPR | Watchers on the Wand | A Game of Thrones Community for Breaking News, Casting, and Commentary
Here's some stuff I remembered seeing:
Directors Guild of America Awards were announced last night in Los Angeles, and
Director David Nutter won the award for Outstanding Directorial Achievement in a Dramatic Series for his work on the
eason 5 finale, “Mother’s Mercy.” He was nominated five times previously, including once for the
 Red Wedding episode, “The Rains of Castamere.”
Nutter also won the 2015 Directing Emmy Award for “Mother’s Mercy.”
The episode was packed with huge moments, handled ably by Nutter: Cersei’s Walk of Atonement, Arya crossing Meryn Trant off her list and going blind, Daenerys encountering a Dothraki khalasar, Sansa and Theon’s escape, Myrcella’s death by kiss and Jon’s fatal ‘For the Watch’ scene.
Other nominees for the DGA’s TV Drama award included directors from
Speaking of Cersei, Lena Headey appeared on NPR’s Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me! this weekend to promote her new film,
Lena chats about Cersei, whom she calls “not a very nice girl” while admitting that she herself is just a “clumsy nerd.” She also says that while she hasn’t read the
books, her mother has read them all and likes to tease her, “I know what happens to you next!”‘ The actress recounts meeting her Walk of Atonement flasher on the set on
, and plays a fun round of  “Games Worse Than ‘Game Of Thrones.\'”

I lOVE LOVE LOVE Lena Headey. What a great personality!!
Grats to nutter as well. "Mother's Mercy" was a solid episode with many great moments.
Check out Ser Hunt’s Reviews on YouTube! That guys FUCKING hilarious he does thrones Reviews
I can’t believe that there are people who think she wasn’t there for the whole walk scene…
I’m really glad that David Nutter gets the professional recognition he deserves. Congratulations!
And about Lena… I’ll never get tired to praise her talent, beauty, sense of humour. If Cersei had had half of Lena’s qualities, she would have done less (hm, hm! fewer) stupid things. But Cersei is only beautiful.
Thank you for putting these together, it was treat in a Sunday evening with no trailer. I liked the Jon video the most: “He always comes back!”
Congrats! WGA’s are on Saturday and David and Dan are nominated for Mothers Mercy and Television Drama. They won the Writing Emmy for Mothers Mercy and Nutter won the Emmy and now the DGA for Mothers Mercy
I’m so happy this episode has gotten such amazing recognition.
Unless you are a rabid fan like us… you probably don’t read EVERY article or news piece on each scene or show.. but, the fact that body doubles are most often used in nude scenes, should be fairly common knowledge in todays world. Either way it was effective. The body double was close enough to her physique that it worked.

I was commenting on what I heard in the interview. She was asked if she actually had to do the walk (“That was a very long sequence. Now, first of all, did you actually have to do that?”) and she answered that contrary to popular belief, she was actually there, doing the whole thing but not naked.
Congrats to David Nutter. Mother’s Mercy was such a good episode.
Thanks.. I especially LOVED the HOUNDS tribute!! That dude is just effing awesome!!
Yes I understood… just elaborating on that train of thought. No offense meant.
I agree with you, the whole scene was effective.
Congrats! WGA’s are on Saturday and David and Dan are nominated for Mothers Mercy and Television Drama. They won the Writing Emmy for Mothers Mercy and Nutter won the Emmy and now the DGA for Mothers Mercy I’m so happy this episode has gotten such amazing recognition.
I Heard THE WGA was going to be longer then the DGA lol But the competition for The Drama category is really good, can’t wait.
It’s a great feeling when the announce the nominees for that category and they say that name, awesome feeling.
Can’t wait for it ^^ Trailer can’t come soon enough.
HBO is going to have upgrade from a trophy case to a trophy room!
It’s great to see such great work be acknowledged. Congrats!
I loved all of Lena’s NPR interview, but I found it particularly prophetic that they closed with Queen’s, “She’s a killer … queen; gunpowder, gelatine; dynamite with a laser beam; guaranteed to blow your mind….” Now we know how wildfire is made.
I’m truly happy for David Nutter, but I do have one question. Why was this episode, directorially speaking, better than “Hardhome”? This is a serious question without judgment, by the way, but I genuinely want to understand. I don’t know enough to be able to separate overall episode quality from director quality. “Hardhome” got 9.9 of 10 on IMDb while “Mother’s Mercy” received only an 8.6. So I don’t think I’m not alone when considering “Hardhome” to be the better episode by a significant and perhaps phenomenal margin. So what makes “Mother’s Mercy” better from a director’s perspective?
But the competition for The Drama category is really good, can’t wait.

Yeah I’ll be following along with Deadlines live blog on Saturday night again
And yeah we are at 77 days until the premiere…trailer can drop any day now.
I don’t know the answer but you you have to consider that Stannis Baratheon’s fanboys hated “Mother’s Mercy” and that had some influence on the final score.

This. Also I know some people had issue with all of the cliffhangers. I did not mind them. There are also the people who despise Olly at all costs and were mad that he finished Jon off.
I’m holding out for a surprise trailer tonight during the Super Bowl! Why not right?
If they are showing something tonight, I think they will announce the trailer. With a 20 second tease.
Ah, thanks! I had recalled the bias of the Shireen uprising, but I didn’t think about the fallout from the slaughter battle and the death of all Stannis hope. I definitely think you’re right that the Stanninites influenced the score and that other loose ends further drove down the score, but I don’t imagine that accounts for the full difference. A tenth of a point from perfection is hard to beat.
Mother’s Mercy is a weird one for me: I like every single scene of this episode but somehow the episode just doesn’t work for me as a whole. I can’t really pin the reason for this down (it may have something to do with the cliffhangers).
Jack Bauer 24: This. Also I know some people had issue with all of the cliffhangers. I did not mind them. There are also the people who despise Olly at all costs and were mad that he finished Jon off.
Don’t forget those who, because of one line they didn’t like, discount the entire episode as crap.
Do we usually get an announcement about the trailer release date? If yes, tonight would be quite a good time to announce the date as next Sunday with a short preview. Though I really really hope we get trailer tonight. And I’m so happy about GOT winning all these awards, they really deserve it.
Only remember last year as announcing trailer date and that was because they showed it with IMAX event – but you never know. I really don’t think we will hear anything til next week at the earliest tho.
You also have to take an account the fact that IMDB voters are not known to be reliable, there has many many instances of trolls downvoting usually popular tv shows or movies just for shits and giggles,they did it with Breaking Bad,Sopranos and other high rated shows so GOT is not alone in this,they really don’t have a life .
Nymeria Warrior Queen: Don’t forget those who, because of one line they didn’t like, discount the entire episode as crap.
Yes. That’s why ratings are not reliable these days. 1-5 are all negative grades but if someone doesn’t like an episode/movie, they automaticly give it 1. I never rated GoT episode lower than 7 because the acting and visulas are good enough on its own.
I remember Mother’s Mercy getting vast amount of 1 star ratings on Westeros.org. I gave it 10 because for me, it was one of the few non-battle episodes where every single scene was exciting on its own.
Yup, I have deadline saved, great live blog. You get the announcement before twitter even, they’re fast with announcing the winners. Also they could announce the trailer or drop it off just for surprise.
Anything could happen, so I’ll be on high alert this week.
I’m hoping we get some kind of announcement, it would put a lot of people at ease. Me especially XD
Just thinking about what they would put in the first trailer has me excited.
did they announce trailers before?? I mean someone mentioned above that only last year was announced but due to imax
No imax this year so I feel like it would be released by surprise like the teasers
Someone asked in the other thread, and yes, I think IMDB is that bad. The lack of moderation allows trolling to run rampant. (Shout out to Sue, by the way, for putting in the time and effort here.)
GoT website ratings are also specious. People who have read the books are often rating based on what they expected to see rather than if what they saw was good or not good. Even the worst episode of GoT should never get the lowest rating based on acting, production quality, music and cinematography. Instead, people rate based on “did it meet my vision and expectations having read the book.”
As to a trailer, I wish, but I have no hope. Next week with the Vinyl debut seems to make the most sense. Then again, HBO could surprise me. And I will periodically whip out my phone to refresh this site looking for an update. I am pathetic.
Go Broncos? I guess? Hell. I don’t even fucking care. I would be fine if the cancelled the Super Bowl this year if I could just get a trailer.
Anyway, does anyone know when we get the episode titles for season 6 ?
Will that be late next month or in April ?
Glanced at Facebook and saw an article on the “GOT Videos” page that Nicolaj confirmed the season is going to start off with a dead Jon Snow. Anyone else see that? Obviously he’s going to be dead, but it looks like we have an idea of how the first few minutes will be?
I liked the coherence of Hardhome with the focus on the battle. It was incredibly intense. Maybe they thought Mother’s Mercy was more challenging for a director since it had more of a range of key scenes.
Aw, hell, at this point, if I thought it would do any good, I’d probably seek out some HBO exec. and flash my bewbs for a trailer…and I’m
Hey, maybe we could come up with a Trailer Dance. If Rain Dances can bring the rain, maybe a Trailer Dance could bring the trailer.
I’m hoping they do this again same time too. 8:58pm right before Vinyl.
Age is not kind to breasts, so no one wants me to flash, but I would supply those execs with the finest of hookers if I thought it would work.
As to the Nikolaj comments, they were made last weekend at the SAG awards red carpet and they’ve been parsed pretty hard, but who knows what the actors even know of the other scenes and their ordering? Almost all of them throw out the line now that they just read their own bits and nothing else.
Wasn’t EW supposed to come out with some news last month too? Bastards. I subscribe to that stupid magazine just for GoT news.
Anyone watching the Super Bowl waiting for GOT news ?
was supposed to go to a Super Bowl party but I’m sick! So I’ll pay more attention for any GOT teasers, though I doubt we will get any
Here’s a fan-made trailer for S6 I found today. It’s not the real thing, but maybe it helps you to bear the wait just a little bit easier.
Can any American explain to me how do they show trailers during superbowl? I’m European so the big thing here is obviously what we call Football, or soccer to you. I have no idea how these american football matches work. Do they show the trailers during break? or at the end?
I’ve given a pass to the 4872 hours of pre-Super Bowl coverage. In the playoffs I was Team Not-the-Patriots. So at this point, I’m struggling to care. I’ll watch the game once it starts, but not with any particular enthusiasm.
I don’t think HBO needs to waste the money on a Super Bowl ad. The show has enough of a following that it’s just not necessary. The trailer is going to have enough views once it’s uploaded to YouTube. HBO doesn’t get any marketing benefit from that ad buy.
On the other hand, ESPN got a boost on it’s MNF football coverage for having the SW: TFA trailer air, and they hyped the fuck out of that. But that was SW pulling viewers into MNF. The Super Bowl doesn’t need GoT to pull in viewers and GoT doesn’t need the Super Bowl to reach it’s trailer audience.
A twenty second teaser during the pre-coverage might be cheaper and easier though…but like MNF/TFA stuff, the channel would be hyping it already. “And coming up, the latest teaser for GoT Season Six!” Said before every commercial break for about two hours before they show it.
That is there to be certain, but given how well IMDB scores do at predicting the success of movie sequels, the signal tends to swamp out the noise.
American football has breaks constantly. So you don’t have 45 minutes of continuous play. Acutal NFL football game time totals 60 minutes plus a 15 (in the case of the Super Bowl, 20) minute half time. The actual time a game lasts close to three hours because of all of the time outs, commercial breaks, instant replay reviews, etc.
Yes, they specifically stop play and stop the game clock to show commercials. No matter how stupid that sounds.
For every minute of football, there are 2 minutes of commercials on the Super Bowl. That is an exaggeration, of course, but not much of one. Companies shell out huge amounts of money to get ads on during the Super Bowl, too.
Obviously, there will not be anything for Thrones: the only TV shows advertised in the Super Bowl are midseason replacements on the network televising the game. Cable series would never be advertised there: the amount a network would charge to advertise rival networks fare would be astronomical: and these already are the most expensive commercial slots that exist. Besides, even if HBO was charged “only” what movie studios are charged, why would they spend so much advertising for a show with an established audience?
Yeah I get your point, but for the sake of me and every single person on this website I hope you’re wrong. Come on… a small 10 second teaser would suffice!!
The kind of funny thing is, some folks watch the Superbowl just for the commercials. I know, in many ways “great commercial” seems like an oxymoron, but given the obscene price tag, a lot of thought goes into some of the commercials, and some of them end up being pretty good. Of course, I haven’t watched in years, not even for the commercials. If I even turn on the television, it’s to watch Puppy Bowl.
Joffrey’s Cunt: Come on… a small 10 second teaser would suffice!!
The roster for the SB commercials came out a couple of weeks ago, and there was no Thrones. There never are surprise commercials on the SB anymore: the competition for the slots is just too intense.
Nymeria Warrior Queen: I know, in many ways “great commercial” seems like an oxymoron, but given the obscene price tag, a lot of thought goes into some of the commercials, and some of them end up being pretty good.
Indeed, some of the best-known commercials in history were created for the Super Bowl. This is sort of like “Oscars Season” for commercials. I think that it was the Macintosh commercial from the early 1980’s that really made people realize just how potent a captivating commercial aired during the Super Bowl could be. (And the Apple executives thought that it was an awful commercial, too!)
Evidently, one can tell a lot about marketing trends for the coming year based on these commercials: or one can if one understands anything about marketing. (I pretty much just gave the extent of my marketing knowledge right there!)
Sounds ridiculous! But yeah I know some of them are pretty good, I’ve watched a few compilations on the internet, but still, I hate everything they represent, the interests of the big companies behind it, consumerism and such.
And as for Lena Headey, I thought she loved Cersei? She’s usually like this when speaking about her
There is one commercial, I must admit, I seek out every year, and that’s the Budweiser Commercial with the Clydesdales. I don’t really drink beer, and if I did, it sure as shit wouldn’t be Budweiser, but I love those commercials, and I have since I was a kid. Fortunately, we have the internet, now, so I don’t have to watch tv to see it.
Hoping for a Game of Thrones commercial at this point is like hoping that the Chicago Bears will be in the game. What commercials are being aired was determined a while ago, and it’s known what those commercials will be. There are lists out there somewhere, and evidently you can even get the roster so that you’ll know the order in which they’ll air. If there were a Game of Thrones commercial, then the people running this site would have been tipped off about it a while ago.
David took a break from the show this season but most probably he’ll be back for season 7. he’s a very talented director, huge congratulations.
Wimsey: I don’t really drink beer, and if I did, it sure as shit wouldn’t be Budweiser
Insofar as I am concerned, you can say “I don’t drink beer” and “I do drink Budweiser” without contradicting yourself.
Yeah from what I’ve seen so far, budweiser commercials are the best, It’s a shame the beer isn’t :P… how I love my portuguese beer (sigh)
Ok I give up. Your arguments are just too strong. Thank’s for destroying any hope I still had left 😀
This isn’t new, but nfl.com did an all Game of Thrones football team. For those who haven’t seen it, you may get a chuckle out of it.
Shy Lady Dragon, Evening Shy one *waves* I finally managed to finish the GoT Top 20 countdown transcript for you, kept being interrupted by work
For anyone who’s interested, it was a 2 hour programme on Sky Atlantic last year which has never been posted on Youtube (hence the transcript) that included brief interviews with quite a few cast and crew members, and GRRM, about the greatest 20 moments from series 1-4. Maybe worth a look if you’re going stir crazy. Only problem is I don’t know how to attach a file to a post? Only how to post pictures on imgur (this is a 17 page 1.3MB pdf, not the same at all). Help needed from a more technically minded Watcher please!!
The Clydesdales are great. I remember the original. “Here comes the king, here comes the big number one…”
Hey Wintery one *waves* I think we were mid-conversation when I got overtaken by work, this is the first time I’ve been on here for about a week, don’t want you to think I was suddenly ignoring you!
So….casts mind back to what we were saying….I’m flattered you think of me in such a positive light, and no worries about you being ‘comfortable’ in posts as you put it, but believe me I’d make a rubbish mum in real life
To cats yes, even if I say so myself, as they don’t need much from you, but humans are something else altogether and it would end badly I fear. Can’t cook to save my life but I do like eating cookies, in the style of Cookie Monster from Sesame Street. In this cold weather I wear a furry top that makes me look uncannily like him! 😀 Glad you got your results and did well, there’s nothing like having to wait ages for results to compound the agony. Actually got to go to bed now, so this is just a flying visit! Last thing I was going to do was post the transcript for the bashful dragon and realised I couldn’t, then say your post and thought I’d say hello. Anyway must stop rambling now. Catch up with you (and everyone else I know on here) later. Byyyyeeeeeeeee all *waving* 😀
Hi Pinky *more waving* I did have a quick check over there as people have definitely posted links to documents before but I can’t see any obvious way of doing it. It looks like you have to upload things somewhere else and then link from here? The only site I know is imgur which I think is just pictures. Will have to do some proper investigation tomorrow unless anyone can post the solution in the meantime. It’s time for bed here so I gotta go now….watch this space
My skills are limited to a cut and paste of the entire doc into a forum post…so…yeah…not helpful.
but I found it particularly prophetic that they closed with Queen’s, “She’s a killer … queen; gunpowder, gelatine; dynamite with a laser beam; guaranteed to blow your mind…
The show is generally good at finding the perfect music to finish a segment. That one was especially wonderful. (I loved when she is asked what would happen to you if you told us something. She answered, its not what would happen to m e, its what would happen to you….
Your not pathetic, just a crazy fanatic like the rest of us, lol. But I would advise you to slow your roll a little, Hypermania can lead to anxiety and unreachable expectations.
I love that Ghost and the dragons are also part of the team, but… I’d like to see something similar done with a soccer team – if this is done, I’ll fully enjoy it!
Nice to see you again, how are you, dear, besides tired of this big pile of work? I’m so sorry I put you to this kind of torture, I didn’t know what it meant.
Unfortunately I’m not a technical mind, so I won’t be able to give you any advice. Let’s hope some good soul will read this…
A big hug for you and your cats – I hope they won’t scratch me!
Oh…my expectations are low. But I just need that constant dribble of information. They’ve cut me off cold turkey.
I dont know anything about directing but personally I think Hardhome was a better episode. I think Mothers Mercy won because of the emotional factor in the episode, but for me Hardhome was complete quality
Also, does anyone think that we’ll get the trailer during superbowl time? This will be the biggest season yet, you’d think they’d make a massive announcement like superbowl ad time.
I mentioned that a couple of days ago, when I said that IIRC I heard a director saying they will start season 6 where they left off season 5.
Every season is the biggest yet. Wasting millions for a trailer would be a dumb move from HBO since the show already has a huge audience.
It’s coming next week, relax people.
And the screen just showed game of thrones and the date and hbo logo
Every season is the biggest yet. Wasting millions for a trailer would be a dumb move from HBO since the show already has a huge established audience.
It’s coming next week, relax guys.
How do you KNOW it’s coming next week? What lead you to this conclusion?
Also, does anyone think that we’ll get the trailer during superbowl time? This will be the biggest season yet, you’d think they’d make a massive announcement like superbowl ad time.
Next Sunday before Vinyl is our best chance. If it isn’t next Sunday then it probably won’t be until the end of the month.
I’ve also thought that Bran’s “They have no idea, what is going to happen” from the tease is not only referenced to the people of Westeros, but also to US.
Maybe that’ll be their strategy? Little promotion leading to large word-of-mouth leading to a huge anticipatory wait. I dunno, just reaching here.
Is this all, just a simple announcement? Anyway, enjoy the Superball and get well soon!
These Super Bowl commercials are wretched. There are some ad people I want to punch in the face right now for being idiots.
host Peter Sagal is such a stone GoT geek. Contrary to most interviewers, he did not ask stupid questions and clearly is up on what’s been going on with Cersei. He seems as eager for S6 to get here as any of us.
Ok. Some people may well react with a “what do you mean you’ve never heard one of her songs,” but, well, I haven’t. I’m speaking of Lady Gaga. I’m one of those people who, yes, even though I’m a wing-nut for GoT, isn’t really into most popular culture stuff. I think much of it is due to age, but I’ve always kind of been like that. Sure, I know who she is. It’s impossible not to, since she is seemingly everywhere. Anyway, I was reading reactions to Superbowl stuff, and as I’m reading, I keep seeing people saying she sang the National Anthem and was amazing. Yeah, yeah, whatever, but then I kept seeing it, so I checked it out (already on youtube).
Wow. That woman has a serious set of pipes. I may never listen to any of her music, but I cannot discount her as a singer. I had no idea she was that talented. It’s good to know someone who gets so much attention has so much talent.
GameofHype, It was posted on and removed from Reddit yesterday.
I’m guessing you don’t game or anything, do you?
Someone I know who knows someone is the oldest troll in the book. Kudo’s if they DO actually know said person, but 99% of times its total BS because of how easy it is.
So its confirmed ? cool I guess XD hope this guy is to be believed. i’ll trust it for now, since everyone and their mother has said the 14yh. planned on watching Vinyle anyway XD
I suspect it was removed because everyone laughed at how silly it was….
I’m not saying I believed it. I’m just saying I saw it. 😛
Heard the Lena spot on the radio unexpectedly today- she was hilarious!
A random question. Does anyone imagine if any actor/actress will be promoted to the main cast this season?
That is very far from confirmed. That’s why it was removed from Reddit, I’m guessing.
But the trailer showing up with the debut of Vinyl has been a common guess for months. No inside source needed.
She fuckin killed it, very happy for her. And I’m not exactly a fan…

Aww, I think you’d make a great mum. Cooking is overrated. What matters most is love, attention, and support, which you dole out to all of the regulars on here. So I see you as very maternal.

I use Dropbox.com all the time. You can create a free account, load documents into your account, and then share their public links with others.
If it’s thought to be a common source, then i’m convinced. Bring on next week
That is very far from confirmed. That’s why it was removed from Reddit, I’m guessing.
I know, well believing that is enough to get me through the week XD and if not the 14th, well there’s always the week after :p
Vinyl looks awesome, mr Scorsese and team never disappoints.
Just lurking out of the darkness to say I need a trailer. Just, you know, fyi.
I feel like a junkie, ready to go out and by some wobbly, blurry street footage, just for a fix.
Yessir. Congratulations! Connington can now return to exile and see about that affliction… Very happy for your great Khal to go out on top. They certainly learned a valuable lesson about the power of a great defense from their experience two years ago! (So glad we could help with that). 😉
Jesus I think everyone has gone mad waiting for a trailer, the majority of us will be feral by the time this bloody trailer comes out….
ok let me give you guys a little grain of hope, we are 11 Sundays away from season 6. maybe when we are 10 Sundays away from the season, that’s when they will drop a trailer lol
so happens that next Sunday we will officially be 10 Sundays away, I’m just grasping as straws but it’s something lol

She is amazing. Check out her ‘Sound of Music’ tribute at last year’s Oscar’s, where I think she left a few jaws gaping of those who dismiss her as another weird pop star. https://youtu.be/yXS1cpSwwbQ Classically trained, and her album with Tony Bennett is so fun. She will be doing the tribute to David Bowie at the Grammy awards this year, I can’t imagine anyone better.
And the only reason I get happy for her is because normally she is the type I can’t stand, but she won me over. LOL.
Looking forward to her Bowie tribute. I have always respected her as an artist- I just don’t go for her musik. She is so talented though. Her live playing and vocal work is always tops. I also like her duets with Bennett.
ok let me give you guys a little grain of hope, we are 11 Sundays away from season 6.
maybe when we are 10 Sundays away from the season, that’s when they will drop a trailer lol
so happens that next Sunday we will officially be 10 Sundays away, I’m just grasping as straws but it’s something lol
11 Sunday’s doesn’t actually sound too bad. I can smell it.
Yeah, the fact that she can play as well as sing is something I admire – I played the piano for years but had a lot of trouble focusing on singing while playing!
It’s tough engaging both. Took me forever to learn to do both.
She also writes her own material, which many pop stars do not. I think she’ll be around for awhile, and this performance is timed right- it is going to give her career a major boost (as if she really needed it)
Let me guess,going by your name you’re a Stannis fanboy. You guys are so predictable and so sad and pathetic i almost feel sorry for you,almost .
Lol @ feral. Ya know what? I think we should all just put out there that we do not desire, and have no expectation for, a trailer. Reverse psychology karma or whatever you want to call it
Isn’t this like the 143rd award win for ..game of thrones in total. ……??? is there any other show that have won more? ?? I checked a few suspects on imdb …They aren’t very close to 143…..
Wow! If there had been no mention of the singer, I wouldn’t have guessed her real identity. Not in a million years! I have listened to her Alejandro song, which didn’t need a great voice imho and I thought that was all she could do. I didn’t like her showing off, it seemed to me like a modern way of imitating the shocking ’80ies Madonna – sorry! I had seen her briefly in some action movie, never watched
. So I’m amazed and I’m afraid I was too hasty to judge someone. This woman has a great voice and really knows how to use it. Thanks for pointing this out to me!
I’m home with the flu, so this waiting for a trailer is not what the doctor recommended. But, fortunately, my GOT colouring book arrived, and its unexpectedly soothing. It’s been my first time colouring since my art classes when I was a teenager. If I had to comment upon the book, I would have liked less sigils and more characters to colour, but you can have them all.
Shy Lady Dragon: I would have liked less sigils
You do realize what Stannis would have to say about this…
Seven Hells, thank you for showing the right way, m’lady! By all means, fewer sigils, just a slip of the… mind plus typing fingers, I remember the uncountable/countable nouns distinction from English class, a long time ago
And I do praise myself of having a “good command of English”, as it’s written in my cv… Shame! Shame! Shame!
I guess it was my way to annoy Stannis even if he’s gone 😉
Hey Mum, how are you doing? It’s ok i never thought that you ignored me, you said you were busy.
Oh come on you amazing fellow watcher/reader sansa lover sweet friend of mine, you totally rock as a mother, judging by everything i learnt so far you’re very passionate incredibly kind and truly smart all of which crucial for being a great mother, a lot more is needed sure but nothing that you can’t achieve, and cooking is just overrated really so no big deal in that regard, besides i always get an interesting maternal vibe from you which is one of the reasons i respect and love you.
Yes january was very intense because of exams but also it’s nothing compare to next May in which i have my highly anticipated entrance exam for master’s degree and i’m telling you it’s scaring the hell outta me, i failed last year unfortunately so don’t wanna fail again. What’s even worse is that the exam is slated two weeks after start of season 6 and i hate it, i probably going to catch up with the show from episode 3. FOR CHRISSAKES IT’S THE NEXT SEASON OF GAME OF THRONES WE’RE TALKING ABOUT HERE, ok i’ll shut up now.
It looks like the HBO schedule goes six weeks forward, which means we should know the name of the first episode on the 13th of March or thereabouts, if the names are not released earlier. It’s one date you can add to your calendar with some confidence, since we still don’t know for sure when we get the trailer or even any kind of S6 photos or footage.
