I didn't see it as compassion, just as his last option to prevent a bloodbath

Tyrion was out of options to try and prevent a massacre. It was Jaime's decision to leave Brienne. Tyrion had nothing to do with that.

One of the better posts tonight. Some do not realize that you can love both the books and the series.- 543 replies

I suppose the good news is that so many people are finished with the show we won't have to go through all this whining next year.

"A Clockwork Orange" is basically a novella. I will let others debate on the difficulties of adaptation. Can't see where I criticised other people's rankings.

Close the door behind you. Personally I blame GRRM for all this. If he had got his finger out etc. But it was gripping TV. I couldn't tear my eyes away. Of course if GRRM had written the Shireen scene the book people would be orgasming how great it was. Once again you cannot compare the books to TV. If you don't like it, tough. You know the solution. BTW I gave it a ten.

I would have said some of her scenes with Jaime in series 3 are anything but one-dimensional.

Gave it a 6. My lowest of the series. I can understand why the TV watchers loved it. Plenty of action, great film work, minimal talking. Great. Sadly the plot development was zero. Wildlings attack wall, Wildlings lose. Wildlings regroup to attack on the morrow. Couple of minor characters killed off. Traditionally episode 9 has to be the showpiece action episode so we got that. Stannis arriving at the end should have closed it off. Now we have a crap load to be telescoped into episode 10.

Might as well have made it the last episode. Not much else left to happen in this series.

Really? For a lot of DwD the story stood still.

How was it anticlimactic? Pretty obvious what was going down. And if you hadn't read the books you wouldn't know any different. And then you hated Ros's death. Solid 8, we needed a set up episode going forward.

Great TV yes. Is it the book? No. Get over it already.
