Recap, Game of Thrones 2.9: “The Battle of the Blackwater”

This is, I think, the only self-contained episode since the very first one, and it’s written by George R. R. Martin himself. All the action is at King’s Landing, inside as well as outside – and there’s plenty of action to go around.. Trigger warning for mentions of rape and sexual violence.

I had heard rumors that there was a “dreamatorium” episode in our near future, so I wasn’t completely surprised when it happened, but I was surprised by the direction it took. Rather than being a whimsical Troy and Abed adventure, it was an in-depth character episode with Abed and Annie (with the rest of the […]

Scalping, academic publishing, baby blues, and blow-outs? It’s an all over the place episode of Bones, this week, and even Brennan ends up seeming kind of disgusted at the killer.
