When I saw her all I could think of was that dumb pic and I was just dying. Yeah, she's going to be a regular character iirc.

Needs More in general imo. I know it's got to set everything up but now that it's a bit of a sprawl I want more time per episode :(
I'm now at the point where everything Joffrey does, I savour it, because his demise MUST be inevitable.

POWER is power scene was A+
Kinda love Cersei when she's put on the back foot, she's so much more dangerous
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 2 April 2012 05:21 (twelve years ago) link
That scene was great, but I think it was a desperate move to prove something to herself. I hope Tyrion pisses Joffrey and Cersei off a lot.

IKR?!
And god, I was hoping for a repeat of the Tyrion slapping scene, but the little POS Joff started throwing his weight around OMG, it made me feel almost bad for her.

I want to say more, but I'll just say that it's the show making a meta-point about power; the viewers are going to be well-acquainted with the "knowledge is power" cliche, but when you've got mindlessly obedient guards with you, then that's just a cliche and nothing more.
― Office Tebow (Leee), Monday, 2 April 2012 05:26 (twelve years ago) link
I got that vibe, but as it happened soon after her getting a talking down by Joffrey I assumed that part of it had to do with her trying to prove herself.

Before watching this episode I hadn't really anticipated how much I'd enjoy the Dragonstone crew and their antics, but now I'm sure they'll be my favorite part of the season.

Stannis and Davos are both spot on, though Melisandre could be a bit scarier.
Only just realised in this one that King's Landing is clearly Dubrovnik.

Yeah def thought Melisandre was ... subdued. I think what the show runners are thinking is if they make her too obviously EVIL upon meeting her you'd wonder why anyone around Stannis would support him, rather than fleeing or rushing her with knives.

I didn't really understand what was going on with the poisoned wine. He was trying to poison her, right? Why exactly did it go so wrong?

was she in the first season, too many damn characters in this show, there was a guy i just did not remember at all who clearly factored in the first season, he is the brother of the murdered original fat whoring king i guess, he was complaining in his castle abt how he doesnt get no respect then he sent out that nasty letter

ya i dont think he was in season 1, or book 1

his name is stannis

yeah stannis was mentioned a bunch in season 1 but doesn't get properly introduced until now
― ciderpress, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 13:46 (twelve years ago) link
he is actually one of the best characters imo
None of those characters were in the first season. Although the dead King's brother (Stannis) was alluded to
― Number None, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 13:46 (twelve years ago) link
his NAME... is STANNIS.

Stannis looks a bit like an older version of Statham, I approve.

I briefly got my book characters mixed up so for the first minute or so of the beach scene, I thought Davos was Stannis

I was excited to see Carice van Houten was Melisandre. Must admit I crushed out majorly on her pagan witch-mayor in Black Death.
