Perhaps there will be no one on the iron throne in the end That's one of the brilliant aspects of this epic: you're absolutely right, that is the real story... but apart from Jon, none of the characters know it! There was a vision of the Iron Throne room destroyed, when Dany was looking for her dragons, at the end of season two. The 3-eyed Raven knows, and I suspect he'll have a basic role in the Night King's demise. |

House of cards season 5 sees the whole thing coming to a boil as different long established plot lines are resolved or on the verge to be. And man, that speech Underwood gives mid-season, speaking directly to the viewer... That's pretty much telling it like it is, right? What about that final speech from his better half? |

Season 3 finales for both Better Call Saul and Fargo this week. I thought both seasons were pretty good and overall I feel these series are some of the strongest writing on cable. Better Call Saul gets on the slow side of things for no better reason than the seer enjoyment of it, but I like it. Fargo is also among my top 10, but it feels like every season is slightly weaker than the previous one, the most interesting characters (Malvo, Peggy and Varga) exemplify said decay. |

Westworld lives up to its rep, I'd say. Looking forward to the next series. Oh yeah. It's brilliant. I've watched it twice so far; once by myself as it aired, and once with my girlfriend, who also liked it a whole lot. I'm really enjoying the Amazon Prime original series The Man In The High Castle. I have two episodes left to go in season one. Westworld was a real treat, and The Man In The High Castle only gets better in S02. |

Having prior knowledge of the original series (and the movie IMO) is crucial. Is it? I heard you can skip the movie. |

The problem is that if it isn't either Dany or Jon, then it seems too unpredictable and done only because it's something no one expected. I'm rooting for Sansa and Littlefinger. I'm rooting for something to happen to Littlefinger, but it isn't for him to either get his...hands...on Sansa (just creepy) or his rear on the Iron Throne. |

Considering that the name of the show is Game of Thrones, who's the best player?
