Dear GoT Fans: Winter Came, So Can We Chill For a Sec?

So the Game of Thrones finale happened. Many people are unhappy with it. As mentioned in a prior blog post, I didn’t jump on the bandwagon until earlier this year, and I recognize that makes my relationship with the show different from that of most fans.

30 Pilots in 30 Days: Game of Thrones

Had I seen it before: Not really. I’ve been in the living room while my brother watched the last couple episodes, but I couldn’t make heads or tail of them having not watched the previous six seasons.
