‘Game of Thrones’ season 5, episode 10 (finale) review: Jon Snow’s Benjen hope, Cersei’s Walk of Atonement

Matt Carter — Mon, 15 Jun 2015 02:00:59 +0000

We knew that Sunday night’s “Game of Thrones” finale was going to be eventful, but this eventful? That is something that we certainly did not see coming … especially when it comes to death surfacing so early in the episode. (Warning: MAJOR spoilers ahead.) The first person that we lost tonight was Stannis Baratheon of all people, […]

‘Game of Thrones’ season 5, episode 9 review: Stannis and Shireen; Dany, Jorah, and the Fighting Pits

Matt Carter — Mon, 08 Jun 2015 01:45:04 +0000

Tonight’s “Game of Thrones” episode messed us up. There’s no other way we can say it. We don’t consider ourselves to be even remotely soft when it comes to what we watch on TV; we see every genre of show, and it’s our job, so when something like this comes up that truly disturbs us […]

‘Game of Thrones’ season 5, episode 8 review: Hardhome brings White Walkers; Tyrion, Dany’s first chat

Matt Carter — Mon, 01 Jun 2015 01:59:28 +0000

Was “Hardhome” the greatest episode in the history of “Game of Thrones“? We’re not quite sure that we can say that, but we will at least tell you now that it is the best episode of the season. It was intense, well-acted, and above all thoroughly entertaining. Provided that you love this particular HBO gem, […]

‘Game of Thrones’ season 5, episode 6 review: Cersei’s move; Ramsay, Sansa, and Reek’s awful wedding night

Matt Carter — Mon, 18 May 2015 01:55:57 +0000

For most of the run of “Game of Thrones” on HBO, there is one thing that we have considered to be a constant: The members of House Tyrell are the smartest people in the room. Lady Olenna was a driving force behind the death of Joffrey, and in having Margaery marry Tommen, the house had […]

‘Game of Thrones’ season 5, episode 5 review: Sansa reunites with Theon

We are already at the halfway point of “Game of Thrones” season 5 and has anything of note really happened yet? Maybe our expectations are too high because every other season has consistently wowed us, but this season really needs to pick up the pace. There have been some new characters introduced, which we are […]

‘Game of Thrones’ season 5, episode 4 review: Death and drama in Meereen

Matt Carter — Mon, 04 May 2015 01:57:33 +0000

It is not often that we open a “Game of Thrones” episode review talking about Meereen, but there is a reason for that for the most part: More often than not, we tend to pretend that this part of the show does not often exist. It has not been that interesting for at least a […]

‘Game of Thrones’ season 5, episode 3 review: A wedding, a death, and one happy return

Matt Carter — Mon, 27 Apr 2015 02:03:10 +0000

“Game of Thrones” has always loved to create their juxtaposition between marriages and deaths, but not exactly in the way we saw on Sunday night’s new episode. For once, we had a ceremony happen without any surprises! Margaery and Tommen are already married, and despite however cringe-worthy it may be, they have also already slept […]

‘Game of Thrones’ season 5, episode 2 review: Jon Snow’s new title and ‘The House of Black and White’

Matt Carter — Mon, 20 Apr 2015 01:55:27 +0000

Is “Game of Thrones” season 5 moving along at a rapid enough pace? We’re not quite sure that it is after watching the second installment of the season on Sunday. “The House of Black and White” did contain a few key moments, and yet we at the same time are struggling to hide the feeling […]

‘Game of Thrones’ season 5, episode 1 review: Death by fire; Cersei’s past; Dany’s dragons

Matt Carter — Mon, 13 Apr 2015 01:50:42 +0000

We have always felt that seasons of “Game of Thrones” start in many ways slow, and it turns out once again that Sunday night’s season 5 premiere was no exception. We cannot really say that “The Wars to Come” was particularly eventful for the most part, save for a few key events that could in […]
