With each new episode of ‘Game of Thrones,’ I’m learning more not to ask if someone will die, but rather who will die, in what way, and how important that person has been thus far to the many story arcs both in Westeros and across the Narrow Sea.
FINALLY — a wedding worth celebrating. Season four of ‘Game of Thrones’ wastes no time in trimming down its large list of major characters.
This season opener is primarily exposition — a necessary reintroduction to a rather large cast of characters and a bit of catching up. There are a lot of subtle moments of brilliance (especially the opening and closing sequences), but mostly what we got is a solid precursor to whatever is planned for the rest of the season — which is exactly what we needed.
