I don't get it either. And it's not like Jon doesn't have a kid steward in the books. Just pretend he's Satin and he's been given a little bit more to do and you can fit it into "adapted character" column as opposed to "made up character". He's literally had 3 lines on the show. One plus about Olly, at least no one can theorise that Jon is sexually attracted to Olly the way they do with Satin. Given the shows track record with adapting gay characters I imagine we'd get way too many JonXSatin fanfics clogging up the internet. Also, it would of gave Jon turning Mel away a whole new meaning...

The Bronn thing is the next. Come on man. They were such good writers in s1 and s2 and even s3. But then their fetish for this "foreshadowing" went insane. From subtle nods or links that would only be noted after you rewatch it, they are now waving around neon signs that act as blatant spoilers. Nice touch they make Bronn sing the Dornishman's wife. Oh lets make Jaime interrupt him and Bronn say that the last part is the best. -The part where the singer says he dies, but doesn't regret it as he had a dornishwoman. Let's make Bronn also kill a snake to safe Jaime. Let's make an obvious camera angle to show Bronn was cut by a blade from the sandsnake. You know, that is the problem. They lost their art. Their subtle approach at events. That the show was unpredictable. You never knew what was going to happen. Or when. Or how. Now everytime you see a character do something, you know the action will repeat itself. Be mirrored by a different character on that character to get revenge or something. And Olly, besides being annoying and out of place at the Wall and the story, is a lazy uninspired plot device. The cheapest I have ever seen in my entire life and I am a total movie nerd who has seen lots of those stupid plot devices. But this one is the absolute worst. Absolutely obvious and well, like a time bomb with the timer in his face for the entire audience to see, but the hero fails to notice it. And that's why this character rightfully deserves "hate".

So will Dany and Daario have a sex scene, or just a scene where they are in bed? And fuck HBO, if they don't show her naked.
Also, do you think Roose will have a talk with Ramsay because of the wedding night? I hope so.

If it's the one from few years back, it's not true and was said by Esme Bianco.

It provides no source and the article is pretty stupid. Yes, the show was very immature when it had one of the major characters naked few times. Because Dany was only character who appeared naked.

I think given the Dany scenes over the past couple seasons, that we're past the point where Emilia is willing to get naked. I'm also doubtful that this is the actress referenced from that old article but putting that aside, I think we can see that there's been a decision made to keep her covered up in scenes where she could have easily been naked. So that's probably a choice that was made at some point at her request.

Unless it's just that she won't for non-consequential scenes to give certain other moments more impact.

Yeah, I think it's pretty clear that Emilia doesn't want to do anymore nude scenes. She doesn't explicitly state it here, but it is heavily implied. Although I'm sure she would be up for it if it was necessary for a certain scene, like the birth of the dragons from season 1, but those could always be filmed discretely to avoid nudity.

They were talking for a long time about an actress telling the showrunners they would not, or blatantly refusing to do nude scenes. I mean, she had more than her fair share in series one. She has been nude in scenes since, and had a scene in S3 with Daario before he grew a beard (it was just a beard people...). And there are scenes in which she has covered nudes, but hey, she is trying to play a serious character. It's hard to be that when you're "the girl who is always naked". And after series one, a lot of people saw her that way. But aside from character image, I'm sure Emilia would rather people be looking at her acting than her body...

Changing the subject a bit, but I just had two little things I wanted to say, but wanted to get through all 13 (!) pages of posts first. Man, that took a while. Anyway, as far as Aemon dying tonight, I think it's a complete long shot, because tv only viewers just wouldn't 'get it', but I'd really like to hear him say, "Egg, I dreamed I was old." And the other thing is a thought I had back when I was reading people's posts speculating about Myrcella's necklace. I've been waiting to get to the point where Cersei will ask for Jaime to defend her in a 1:1 combat to prove her innocence, and have him turn her down. Loved it in the books when he just crumpled up her letter and threw it in the fire. So thought perhaps it would turn out that the necklace was just a piece of manipulation by Cersei and his discovering that might be reason for him to be 'done' with her. Probably unlikely, especially since he's been reacting all guilt-trip-y to all of her sarcasm and verbal attacks ever since Tywin was killed. But one can hope . . .

I never knew they aired Game of Thrones at the same time as the US? Sleep can wait!

Bronn will probably be great, and maybe the bewbs will be nice specimens, but I don't really have high hopes for Laurenti Sellers to sell the cheesy dialogue when an Oscar nominee hasn't been able to sell Obara's. Just as a piece of followup, they REALLY were.
