TGE Ep 33 – Watches: Game of Thrones – Season 7 Episodes 3-4-5

#ThronesYall

It’s finally that time of year again: Game of Thrones has returned to HBO! Regina and Isabela join Nicole Tanner from Gaming with the Moms to discuss season 7 of everyone’s favorite fantasy drama. Our first episode discussed Episodes 1 & 2 of Season 7. This week we discuss episodes 3,4, and 5 and let me tell ya, we got a lot to talk about.

Official Game of Thrones Description

Summers span decades. Winters can last a lifetime. And the struggle for the Iron Throne continues.

It stretches from the south, where heat breeds plots, lusts and intrigues, to the vast and savage eastern lands, where a young queen raises an army. All the while, in the frozen north, an 800-foot wall of ice precariously protects the war-ravaged kingdom from the dark forces that lie beyond. Kings and queens, knights and renegades, liars, lords and honest men…all play the ‘Game of Thrones.’ An original series based on George R.R. Martin’s best-selling ‘A Song of Ice and Fire‘ series.

Our Discussion

The amount of action in these episodes is overwhelming. We do our best (and in only TWO HOURS!) to discuss each of the plot lines and the characters we’ve come to love and hate. One of the most interesting observations about GoT is the fact that we have such conflicted feelings about so many of the characters. It’s often hard to decide in some scenes who you are rooting for…

We might record two more episodes in this season, depending on how much happens in the penultimate episode and the season finale. A battle approaches but will it rival the ones that have come before? Only time will tell.

Until next time, winter is here!
Regina, Isabela, and Nicole

To Discuss

Which character in GoT creates the most internal conflict for you? Who do you hate to love?
