2.09: Game of Thrones - Blackwater

My favorite episode of the series thus far.

It didn't really seem small scale to me. I thought it was rather epic. Joffrey's voice cracked before the end, Stannis was a bloody mad man, Cersei was vile, calculating, and relate-able, Bron was a hero, Pod was a hero, Tywin was the greatest man who ever lived, and the Hound's fobia couldn't have been more clear. In many ways it was different from the novel, but I got more than I bargained for considering that they had neglected showing battles previously on this show. Despite the fact that I knew who would win, I didn't really know which side to root for.

i know what you mean about who to root for. It is wasnt for the half man i would hate the Lannesters (although quite like jamie too) but cant warm to stannis.. and robs a bit boring...
 
So glad they spent the entire episode in Kings Landing. This is hands down my favorite episode so far.
 
Watched the entire season... and I've done a one-eighty on the confrontation between Bronn and Sandor. I loved it!
