[NO BOOK SPOILERS] Official Episode 6 Character Rankings

[TheEvilKing]

Best episode so far!!!!!!!!!! I say that every week. :leaving:

Here are the Official character rankings for episode 6.

BADASS RANKINGS:

1. Daenerys - ate a horse's heart, then coldly watched her brother die horribly without batting an eyelid

2. Khal Drogo

3. Bronn

4. Ned - Calling out Tywin Lannister takes a huge pair of balls

5. Robb Stark

Honourable mention: Theon - not his fault Robb's an ingrate

Dishonourable mention: Ser Vardis - What kind of tit uses a kite shield in a duel?

ACTING RANKINGS:

1. Viserys

2. Tyrion

3. Lysa Arryn

4. Ned

5. Dany

Honourable mention: Syrio - more screen time please!

Dishonourable mention: Littlefinger - "Isn't that your wife's House? Tully? My Lord Hand?" "That sounds like someone we know. THE MOUN-TAIN." Thanks captain obvious.

BEST LINES:

1. "I denounce him, and attaint him. I strip him of all ranks and titles, of all ranks and holdings, and sentence him to death."

2. "Who can rule without wealth or fear or love?"

3. "I once brought a jackass and a honeycomb into a brothel..."

4. "I don't want someone brave and gentle and strong, I want him!" :rofl:

5. "You're not here. You're with your trouble. If you're with your trouble when fighting happens, more trouble for you."

Feel free to discuss the Official rankings or post your own. :drool:

I thought Littlefinger was just being a prick and goading Ned, not really trying to explain things to Ned (although it may have helped new audiences make the connection).

[Anomandaris86]

Yes, it was pretty obvious.

BADASS RANKINGS:

3. Bronn

4. Ned - Calling out Tywin Lannister takes a huge pair of balls

5. Robb Stark

I've cut down Daenerys and Khal Drogo from the OP's ranking. I'm not sure watching your brother die without showing the slightest pity for him, or having your (many) men seize a single person makes you badass.

Honorable mention (just for making an appearance): Berric Dondarion

ACTING RANKINGS:

1. Viserys

2. Robert

3. Lysa Arryn

4. Sansa

5. Arya

6. Bronn

BEST LINES:

2. "Who can rule without wealth or fear or love?"

5. "You're not here. You're with your trouble. If you're with your trouble when fighting happens, more trouble for you."

And... I'm sorry to say this, me being a female and against domestic violence, but it cracked me up when reading the books, too:

6. "Wear it in silence, or I'll honor you again."

Edit:

7. "I need a large army."

Badass rankings

1. Dany

2. Bronn (these two are a tossup for first place, really)

3. Syrio ("We only say one thing to Death...not today!")

4. Ned

5. Robb

Acting rankings

1. Viserys (seems to be a trend here, but Harry Lloyd deserves the top spot here. Gonna miss him!)

2. Tyrion

3. Dany (the best episode for both Clarke and Dinklage by far)

4. Arya&Sansa (small roles this week but their interaction was great in their scene together)

5. Ned (as always)

6. Mord :D

[Aerys Blackfyre]

A Golden Crown best lines:

wear it in silence... (king Robert)

it's not my House (Theon)

a Lannister always pays his debts (Tyrion, finally used properly!)

oh wait, Ive just realized I don't care (Sansa)

he was no dragon, fire cannot kill a dragon (Dany)

my favourite:

you don't fight with honour! (Lysa)

no, he did! (Bronn)

and of course: a crown for a king! (Drogo)

funniest scene:

Tyrion confessing his crimes

most epic scene:

Ned and Dondarrion
