Am I the only one convinced that Pyat Pree is actually Dean Pelton from Community?

BTW, here is a great picture of Pyat Pree, from an upcoming episode. (the next one? not sure)

Glad they kept the blues lips for the wizards of Qarth.

The Spice King was wonderfully posh, dismissing and full of himself.  The scene struck several good chords when it came to Qarthian behavior from the book so they've transformed the rulers well into the Thirteen.

Damn Emilia looks hot in that picture.  I see they have dropped the Qarth dress from the show though, one bare breast and all that.

That being said, the costume designer should be heralded for that photo. Everyone is absolutely gorgeous in the bright colors, none more so than Dany.

The only thing I'm not buying is Jorah's shirt. Everyone gets totally new clothes, with most showing at least a nod to Qartheen fashion, and Jorah still has his same yellow shirt! At least it's clean now, and we all know how much people love him in that shirt. :lol:

Watching this quite awkward scene, which reminded me of a hammy exchange out of Star Trek, I thought, 'Is the audience going to put up with at least 3 more seasons of Dany not getting any closer to Westeros?'
