Check back here every Monday to see Dalys thoughts on the latestGOTepisode.
Holy crap!The eighth and final season ofGame of Throneshas finally arrived.
How long have we waited since the last season of this show?
Im not great with numbers.
Whatever it really was, itfeeeelslong.
Theres a definite chance I will write one or more of these without having watched the episode.
Well see if you’ve got the option to tell.
But I watched this one!
For serious I did.
Lets get to recappin!
That Tyrion is a wit!
Im taking this seriously!).
BECAUSE MONSTERS ARE COMING!
Its like any small-town council meeting pretty much.
As usual, that one incredibly ballsy little girl sticks it to Jon Snow hard.
That little girl doesnt give a fuck about anything.
She will knife you to your face.
How are these dumb-dumbs supposed to defeat a zombie army?
It is not looking good.
Then we see some dragon glass being loaded off of some wagons, which is a little reassuring.
Theres a plan it place.
Then we have a little scene between Sansa and Tyrion.
So theyre going to want to either take care of that or figure out how to live together.
Im fine with either thing.
Next up, a tree with a face.
Seems to be sleeping.
If weve seen this tree with a face before, I dont remember it.
Whats up with that?
Is it always sleeping?
Does it get pissed off when you venture to pick its apples?
Am I thinking of a different tree with a face?
Im not sure why she thinks its good that the wall has been breached.
Seems like half a plan at best.
So far, Sansaislooking like the smartest.
Then we head out to a boat where Yara Greyjoy asks her brother (or cousin or uncle?)
why shes still alive and the answer is, honestly, not great.
Euron Greyjoy says he likes having her to talk to because he has a crew full of mutes.
Is that literally true?
Are they like the Unsullied except with vocal chords?
Its not a bad idea I guess.
Nobody wants a chatty navy.
Also, it would be a rare instance of budget consciousness on the part of this TV show.
They dont have to pay anybody in the whole Iron Islands navy for a speaking role.
Then Euron and some guy named Captain Strickland of the Golden Company(?)
have an audience with Cersei.
Has Captain Strickland ever been on this show before?
Because he did not ring any bells.
And she was NOT HAPPY.
There was a period of several months when the elephant habitat at the L.A. Much later in this episode, we find her still ruminating about these damned elephants.
In fact, thats my new prediction for how this season is going to end.
Oh well, Ill miss those guys.
Oh and hey, dont forget theyre also brother and sister!
In a dramatic conclusion, the Mountain willkillthe Hound and everyone all over the world will gasp in horror.
Again, well hear the mournful Baby Elephant Walk because why not?
Hes so cryptic and weird.
His real name is apparently Aegon, which is also awkward and messy.
Stick with Jon, my two cents.
They hatch a plan to beat the zombies to Winterfell by riding horses (smart!)
Pretty awkward, I say!
Seriously, not even one episode ofGame of Thronesfor Andy Daly.
Can you believe that?
Here, thisll be fun.
This episode: sleeping tree.Okay, thanks for reading!
See you next week!
