[GreenLantern]

So, the one thing this show has managed to do is a lot with very little. The scene as the sun is setting at the funeral was really well done, akin to the wedding scene before the last time jump. They get a lot across with just even looks across a crowd. But at the same time... it's all kind of foolish. "They called us bastards!"

That being said, it still falls short for me. As others have said they just kind of lost the flow. I really don't like the new actress playing Rhaenyr or however you spell it. I honestly just think she is a bad actress.

I do keep comparing this show and LOTR, like two giants of lore battling it out each week (even though Tolkien blows Martin out of the water on paper) and LOTR took a huge step forward while I think HOTD has taken a step backward.

I think they would have been better off having the king die like 3/4 way through the season and let us see some of the fall out, but right now it feels like they are just saving it for the last episode with some cliffhanger that everyone will be like 'meh' cause we don't actually really care about any of these characters anyway.
