You pussies need to man up and step up to Helena. Hell of a freaky ride, but you might die afterwards.

So has anyone else got stuck into Season 4 of Arrested Development yet? I am about 70% done. It stated off a little slow due to the character based episodes, but after watching a few where the events overlapped, I d missed quite a few of the tie-ins in episodes 1-3, and actually re-watched them, and enjoyed them more. While there was no way it would live up to the expectation/hype, I actually don't think S04 is that bad. Being killed a bit by critics though. Deff worth a watch.

Keep watching, and it gets better. Season 4 is more of one big episode divided into 15 parts, rather than 15 stand alone shows. As you watch the same events from the other family members perspectives, gaps start to get filled in and some things in the first few episodes get fleshed out and make more sense. I still have 5 more episodes to go, but am enjoying it more than I did when I first started watching (and thought it mediocre)
-
Yeah I have one episode to go. It just keeps getting better. I was very 'meh' after 5 episodes, but after 14 I think it's genius. Not to many hysterically funny moments, just very clever writing.<br />
<br />
It's a completely unique season, and with every episode the picture becomes a little bit clearer. I'd definitely recommend it.<br />

I knew what was going to happen, but it still blew my mind. GoT tonight was stellar.<br />
<br />
There's some clips of fan reaction on YT that are priceless too.<br />

Just watched it, annoyingly I read this post first so was looking for something as I watched.<br />
<br />
[spoiler]Wow, that was crazy. Sucks to be a Stark.<br />
<br />
A couple of things though ... how stupid were the the Starks to not have any security? Their whole army are camped outside but all on the piss? Have to suspend my disbelief I guess. <br />
<br />
I can't stand Caitelyn so was meh with her death, but Robb has been one of the better characters this season. I kind of wish they hadn't made Arya so whiny because there's not many Starks left anymore.<br />
<br />
Looks like I'm left cheering for Daenerys. [/spoiler] -
[spoiler] Really Nepia? I think there are plenty of Starks left.... and who said it had to be Daenerys or the Starks? As for no guards.... maybe the TV show didnt tell it right, but safety of guests is a bedrock of Westeros society... the Freys broke with a MAJOR tradition at the red wedding.. the rest of Westeros dont forget it. The Freys name is even more mud[/spoiler]

Spoiler in thsi link. but the Actress who plays Arya Stark made this little vid .. quite funny.<br />

[spoiler]Its what the bread and salt was all about, the did not explain it but they had a scene of everyone passing it around quite prominently.<br />
<br />
What is annoying me is that the TV show is spoiling surprises in the books now. In the book Robs wife does not go to the wedding, and goes into hiding after he is killed. Then is not really mentioned again in the following books. It was smart as you thought maybe she will give birth and come back in the books that are still to be written. Well the TV show just killed that possible plot line. [/spoiler] -

Seriously Neeps, you logged onto the Off Topic forum, navigated to the TV Series thread and opened it before you watched the latest Game of Thrones? Schoolboy stuff.<br />
<br />
I thought I'd kept info reasonably opaque, but if people are going to walk right into it then what can you do .... <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/rugby/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/idiot2.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':idiot2:' /> -

[spoiler] I don't find any of the remaining Starks very interesting after they turned Arya into a little whine box. Jon Snow is ok, but the Bran storyline has been poor. I prefer Daenerys and the Starks, so I'm saying [i]for me [/i]they're who I prefer. <br />
<br />
Even if there is supposedly some big tradition in Westeros I'd still be watchful - everyone seems to do dodgy shit. [/spoiler]<br />

I like Game of Thrones, but I have other shit going on in my life so didn't watch it last night, then when I got up in the morning I opened the interesting looking threads as per usual . From your comment I knew it would something big and [spoiler] someone dying, although I didn't expect that many deaths (of prominent characters). [/spoiler]<br />
<br />
Anyway, all good, it was another good episode in a bloody good series 3 (I didn't think much of series 2). -

Well, GoT has made something of a habit of delivering huge penultimate episodes in a series, so I was on tenterhooks for this one.<br />
<br />
[spoiler] Next week could be amazing too - you never know with GRR Martin .... <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/rugby/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' /> [/spoiler] -

[spoiler] I've thought that both of the first two series should have ended on their penultimate episodes and haven't thought much of the final (S1 final episode especially just seemed to meander) - hopefully this will be a good one. [/spoiler]
