The Baggpod 4/17/12 – Caught in the Middle

Baggs, JimmyTV, and U-Gene, filling in for the absent JoeDog and Alain, discuss this week’s Game of Thrones and Mad Men episodes.  Lots of wayward souls, lots of conniving, and now with more fighting!

Y’all really drank your haterade before this pod when it comes to the ladies… Here are my thoughts on GoT:
 
>>Love the white walker theme music.. not specific to this episode, but they played it when Snow was talking about them
>>Bran looks so fucking goofy. It’s a shame what puberty can do to a child.
>>Loras also absurd with that bushy-top. Margy, what big EYES you have. Some really lame cheapshots among Loras / Brienne / Cat.
>>Brienne is ONE HUGE BITCH. They must have busted out some of that forced perspective I was talking about. Only it didn’t make any sense since she seemed normal-sized in combat. She was also really wooden in combat (not like a Bravosi, for instance).
>>Life on the Iron Islands SUCKS for everyone involved. Theon’s defiance/questioning of his father was excellent. I thought Yara was perfect as well. I’m not really sure what you all are expecting her to be doing in these scenes. I think she oozes contempt for Theon.
>>Same with Shay.. you guys are saying she’s complaining too much or something like that, right? Well what would you expect for a top-shelf wooh-ha ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_87pRe1MUwE )?? I think the friction between Tyrion and Shay makes sense, and plays well. But isn’t Shay suppose to be Lollys’ handmaiden???? WHERE IS LOLLYS?
>>Sansa’s life blooows.
>>Tyrion’s big scene with the three councilmen was well done. Littlefinger’s voice is getting more erratic.
>>Yoren really didn’t take shit off anyone. The scene shared with Arya was a great addition.
>>No Robb, Dany, Stannis/Davos, Ros, or Joff!?
 
As for Mad Men… I’m not sure I could have enjoyed it much more. Fuck Pete Campbell and fuck his smug ass.
