    Saw it. Man, does he look different clean-shaven and with short hair. Enjoyed the monologue and the little bit about the GoT spin-offs. The SVU one was great!

    Kit Harrington did a good job on SNL I thought. Mostly weak sketches, but he was good in them. Never cracked, and did a convincing American accent.

    2 days, 22 hours to go... (yes, I'm that excited... it's been a long wait). Today we splurged on some really nice wines, and cheeses, meats, breads, olives, nuts, etc. - we will drink and feast along with the denizens of Westeros.

    Before the first episode of S8 starts tonight/tomorrow we should place our bets on who lives or dies and we'll see who scores the most points. Extra 5 Points if you guess right on who ends up on the Iron Throne!

    Jon Snow: Alive but badly injured/disfigured
    Sansa Stark : Dead
    Ayra Stark: Dead
    Tyrion: Alive on Throne
    Denarys: Dead
    Sam: Alive
    Cersei: Dead
    Jaime Lanister: Alive
    Davos: Alive
    Theon Grayjoy: Alive
    Varys: Dead
    Gendry: Alive
    Bronn: Dead
    Jorah Mormont: Alive
    Euron Greyjoy: Dead
    Yara Greyjoy: Alive
    Podrick: Alive
    Brien of Tarth: Alive
    Night King: Dead
    Melisandre: Dead
    The Hound: Dead
    Bran Stark: Alive
    Missandei: Alive

    These are only my guesses! Anything could happen.

    4.75 hours to go... I can't believe it's finally here!

    Interesting that absolutely nothing leaked. Not even the episode title as of yet.

    I'm still wondering what role Melisandre is going to play in all of this. Does the fact that she's actually an incredible elderly (bordering on ancient) woman matter in the grand scheme of things? And what about when she said to Varys "I have to die in this strange place, just as you do"?

    There is some prophecy regarding Melisandre's death occurring in Westeros.

    I disagree. A major character indeed died... in a manner of speaking.

    Enjoyable first episode. Will Daenerys recognize Jon’s rightful claim?

    I doubt it. Not at first, anyway. She's too stubborn.

    Jesus, I hate Bran more with each passing season. I recognize his importance, but he's still my least favourite part of the story. And I wish they had replaced the actor after season 2 so that he still remained the kid he is supposed to be, rather than the 6 foot tall adult with the 18 lb. Adam's apple. He looks ridiculous IMO. The others, like Arya, Sansa etc. have all clearly aged, but are at least still quite recognizable.
