I saw Star Wars when it was first released and have never been able to understand its appeal, it was so poorly written and constructed. Alec Guinness took a small percentage of the profits and was surprised, if delighted, to become a millionaire as a result. The only comparison to make is with Star Trek- which one is worse? if that is possible.
It doesn't get better than this:

...can somebody help me out here on this one? Last week's episode finds Davos' pirate buddy in the hot tub w/ two hot babes and he's telling a joke about the pirate who likes to wear a red shirt in battle. He gets to the end and the girls blurt out the punch line over him. I listened to the dam thing four times, cranked up the volume and even stuck me ear up next to the speaker...could not for the life o me make out what they're saying. Anyone?

"Get me my brown pants!"

[EZWind]

"Get me my brown pants!"

Doh! Thanx, Eva....of course, makes sense...I probly should have been able to come to that conclusion myself....it was late

Trial by combat!

What have we learned in recent weeks?
That Daenerys has the charisma and the 'manpower' to seize control of corrupt states, but is finding it harder to govern them...
That Stannis has the charisma of a plank and not much manpower at all...
That Tyrion Lannister has so far been the only character other than Ned Stark who looks and sounds like he would make a good King of Westeros...
That we need to know just how far south Mance Rayder has got -its been a while-...

Am I right in thinking that if there is a combat Jamie will have to represent his father and Bronn Tyrion? Is that how it works?

That's not actually how it worked out in the books. I've read all the spoilers . It's quite surprising actually and it is a pretty significant moment in the series IMHO.

I'm not sure what happens with the Queen of Thorns though. I really like her character and hopefully something really neat happens with her soon.
