Ghost Story

I think it's impossible to actually hate the show. I mean, the actors are great, the settings are even better. For me, it's sometimes hard to see characters behaving differently from what they're "supposed" to do and it's not so easy to see how arcs D&D created differently from the novels, will end up or lead up to superior happenings. But in the end it works just fine. I guess it's difficult for readers to accept that there has to be left out some important stuff for the show to work. You cannot put every detail Martin created in a show. But it the end it's sums up perfectly.

The episode get's 5/10 from me. I found it a bit awkward that Brienne defeated the Hound. I mean.. he's the Hound. The whole Jojen-dying-and-exploding-thing was also a bit messed up, since he might be important for Bran ( there are some theories about that going around). Jaime and Tyrion just saying goodbye and leaving out Tysha is strange aswell. Seems like the series doesn't care about the change it makes in the relationship of Tyrion and Jaime. The Stannis invasion was well done. I liked the look that Melisandre and Jon exchanged. Makes it all a bit more mysterious. Also Jon burning Ygritte as a symbol of his deep affection and respect for her was a very nice detail and made me almost cry. Best part was Arya entering that ship and the reaction of the captain.
