I like curries... but milder curries. I prefer flavour to a scolded mouth.
A couple of points about GoT, for after you've seen it.

Seen it and not sure what to make of the "r" scene which apparently isn't in the books, according to The Guardian blog?
What do you think?
In the books it's consensual, most you could say was that Cersei was too vulnerable to be thinking properly.
Also the bit with the Hound was changed to a more "shocking" outcome. (In the books he works for a couple of weeks, until the locals get panicky... then he leaves with a "fair enough". No one gets beaten and stole from.)
HBO have a habit of this. For example, Dany's early wedded life with Drogo wasn't as forceful and rough as portrayed.
Thanks - very interesting. It did seem "off" somehow and not in keeping with the character developments. Wonder why HBO are doing it? Shock value?
Glad to hear about Khal... always thought he was a sweetie. Khal!
*shrugs* They're cable... they just do it cause they can. (people joke that the HB stands for "hey boobs!")
Drogo... Who wouldn't want a guy like that declaring you his "sun and stars!" or "moon of my life!".) My mum likes him in Stargate Atlantis.

He is a bit big though. Imagine if you took him home to meet your parents - he'd take up the whole sofa
I watched Mitchell the other day (Joel's last MST3K as host), you'll be proud of me... I didn't cry. Ok, I nearly went at the title music though, I didn't... *proud*
Well done holding it together. But aww... a little wibble is good I wibbled at the end of the latest Mad Men episode... Don with his daughter Sally... what she said.. his face! The music...My eyes are getting moist...
Wibbles can be appropriate. A wibbly episode at the start of the season?
Its been tough for Don for a while. Also, I wibble at Mad Men easily... haven't got your fortitude
*stiffens upper lip*
I'm normally wibbly. I think knowing I had Joel episodes on dvd and having gotten into the show during the Mike era anyway, the switch wasn't such a wrench.
That's the stuffs. How many more episodes do you have to go?
Just over 80. Plus the movie... I think that's canonically between seasons 6 and 7.
Then I'm going to get the Rifftrax for Night of the Lepus... because the uktv gold ads are reminiscent of it.
Any other series catching your eyes?
That should keep you going lol.
Nearly finished s.2 of House of Cards - not as good as s.1. Then will start The Good Wife, heard it was good.
Is that as good as the original House of Cards? I'm having American Remake feelings regarding that.
Didn't see the UK original unfortunately.
U.S. series 1 was excellent - series 2 is getting very silly, its like they've used up all the good ideas
I was perhaps too little to have watched the original... I don't think that ever stopped me. I enjoyed Francis Urquhart as a character. Not sure Kevin Spacey could live up to that, for me anyway.
Ah... it happens, called a "sophmore slump". You wait to see if things pick up in season 3, generally they do.
Ahh thanks, never heard of a sophomore slump.
Think its jumped the shark at this stage. You know when previously convincing characters do completely O.T.T. weird, out of character things and you think "NO WAY!"
An English teacher once told us it was called "the suspension of disbelief"... the moment a book/film/programme loses you. It stops drawing you in and becomes just a silly made up story.
Suspension of disbelief is good... it's when you lose the ability to do that you get problems. "Just repeat to yourself 'it's just a show, I should really just relax'."
