Ahm. Ok. Canadian ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls GOOD NEWS!!! For those of you who did not have the chance to see Season One of “Game Of Thrones”, either by subscribing to HBOCanada, DVD/Blue-ray or digital download…Canadian specialty channel Showcase will air the entire first season starting Friday February 15th . Showcase is not a premium tv channel and it does not require a separate subscription. It is offered through most cable packages either by Bell, Rogers, Shaw etc. For more details go to:
showcase.ca
The downside, seeing GOT with commercials, the upside, the episodes will be broadcast uncut and uncensored.

Here is the direct link to the show: http://www.showcase.ca/gameofthrones
Episode One “Winter Is Coming” airs Friday February 15th at 10pm with an encore presentation at 1:30am.
Enjoy!

SuperBowl, the Final of an sport that is only really important in just one single nation of the world *boring*
Javi MarcosQuote Reply
Javi Marcos,
*very* important to just just one nation, i guess this gives the US a little individuality :)
this comic was really cute,
ACVGQuote Reply
This one made me laugh so hard :)
Ah, and: you know you really want Winds of Winter to be coming out soon if you find yourself missing even GRRMs food porn.
Dang.

Azad, you are awesome

If possible, work in Wun-Wun to a comic someday, I would love to see your take on his glory

Where is the damn trailer?

Should have been “fiery dragon peppers”.

Sounds yummy. My offering for today’s party is a mixture of greens, soured cream and spices served in a trencher of bread. (Spinach dip)
I don’t really care about the game, I’m rooting for the commercials. But it is an excuse to party!

Love how he’s wearing a Jets shirt. The lesser of his two favorite teams.

TastesLikeTheSea,
This one was great (and tasty)!
Also, could it be that there will be a trailer on the SB today ? The HBO Iron Throne is set up with the ESPN area in New Orleans … Hopefully, that means something for us fans!

KG,
I believe those are essential to the malting of those beverages featured on so many of the expensive commercials. :p
This is really funny! Would love to see more GoT influence in SB rituals:
‘By winter packtrain, painted a defiant bright red, smart servants decked in green and shining silver buttons sitting straight at the reigns pulled in the chafing steeds, whose black manes and white fetlocks dangled wild and matted with sweat, their black and silver harness jangling with each insistant step. The oaken chests strapped atop were guarded by a brace of lithe, spotted white hounds, the sigil and pride of House Busch. And within were they, golden ales, runny and thin, yet frothing in cool, dark bottles and ringed by colorful paper to distinguish their singular designation. Thus arrived the King of Beers.’

lol, this was great. I love Martin’s food porn. So fitting for today.

If the Westrosi Ravens win is it a good omen for a fourth season?

Super bowl. Right. So probably no new trailer this sunday either? Decent comic, though.

You’re as lame as the Americans who diss soccer as a boring sport. If you don’t like it fine, I’m not much of a fan myself, but don’t be a dick about it.
And the cartoon was awesome.

May get a trailer on the SB today ??!!

It should’ve said “lizard-lion pears.” But overall, I approve heartily.

I think Martin is even fatter than that.

Obviously there should be a big bowl of Chili Con Queso in that comic, but otherwise this George R.R. Foodporn Martin comic is very well done!
KnurkQuote Reply
GIVE US A FUCKING TRAILER! GIVE IT TO US!
HunterQuote Reply
Well, to reduce the tension (that I begin, but you should understand that we don’t give a damn about this sport), I ask to the fellow readers who have also read the books if they know the reference to NFL in A Dance with Dragons (spoilers, of course)
Javi MarcosQuote Reply
My give-a-damn meter is also pretty low in regards to your not giving a damn about Americans (and GRRM, specifically) giving a damn about the Super Bowl. So, hooray, we all have opinions! Congratulations to us.
The GreatjonQuote Reply
I’m sick of the rampant anti-Americanism amongst the commentators. So I’m fighting back – fair’s fair, and if you can’t take what you dish out, then maybe you’d better shut your mouths.

This game isn’t even fun anymore, lol. What a train wreck.

Prom000Quote Reply
Seriously? You guys are really going to fight over all this shit? For all of your information, the date for the super bowl is decided more than a year in advance, if not more. So that means that the Super Bowl forty something, or whatever it is, was decided to be today before season three was even green lighted. So fuck your shitty arguments and stop ripping on an American tradition that doesn’t apply to you. Whoopty doo! You didn’t get your trailer! Fuck off and just wait like everyone else. I’m just as anxious as everyone for a trailer but I don’t resort to bashing other people’s countries when I don’t get what I want. Keep your football and we’ll keep ours. Thank you

Far more importantly… we are down to LESS than 8 weeks to go until A STORM OF SWORDS is on my 55″ TV screen in Hi-Def.
Let’s repeat that for those who are far too blase about it: A STORM OF SWORDS is coming to our screens in less than two months. I don’t know about you guys, but before the Pilot was ever shown, most of us here were just hoping the thing would get greenlit and would last long enough for us to see this moment. Well it’s going to happen — with ratings to spare — it would seem.
That is pretty sensational stuff.

Steel_Wind,
A woman is also very excited to see that we are closing in on this wonderful day. Huzzah! BTW…do you remember when a 30″ TV was considered HUGE?
Mrs. H’gharQuote Reply
The Ravens winning means this will be the year of ‘Game of Thrones’. It is known!
Tyrion PimpslapQuote Reply
Haha. Lots of people whining because of people complaining about the SuperBowl.
Where’s the “rampant anti-Americanism” or the “ripping of American traditions” or the “country bashing”?
Some people just don’t like the SuperBowl. Deal with it and stop crying.

After The Feast,
I think you mean “European Grass-Diving,” not football lol
KGQuote Reply
vjott,
It’s not like cricket. The game itself usually lasts about 3 hours, but the long halftime show and the TV timeouts stretch it out to 4+ hours.
Tyrion PimpslapQuote Reply
KG,
I love watching a beautiful game of soccer(football), but the level of acting is really quite embarrassing. Players who feign injuries just to delay the game or draw penalties should be penalized more harshly.
Tyrion PimpslapQuote Reply
so… any trailer yet?
fdgytyrtQuote Reply
Just add a lamprey and a capon (whatever those are) and drown everything in butter. Then you’re good.

If u don’t like ‘murika u can git out!!! Seriously though some countries have sports that other countries don’t like, such is life…. Hurling beats them all though;-)

lampreys are like eels and i think capons are like chickens .. I think capons
GerB40Quote Reply
You would think a show like Game of Thrones which is based on American writing and uses a mainly European cast would unite rather than divide people.

Am I the only one here that does not give one shit about football? American or otherwise?

Lets put it this way: anyone who is angry at any given sport for any reason needs to be tyrion pimpslapped, and I’m talking post riot slap. You deserve it…
The Dear HunterQuote Reply
Please elaborate. I am not sure if you are talking about sports fans being mad at the game or people who hate sports hating on sports.
axia777Quote Reply
This is a nice inside joke for all of us that have read the books. To those that haven’t, GRRM like write a 3 page description of every morsel of food every time anyone sits down to eat in his books.
Joe BowersQuote Reply
More like important to one very important nation.
HMZQuote Reply
axia777,
Both I suppose. To each his own and what not. I don’t particularly like some sports as well, but I don’t see the Internet as the means for me to vent and cram my opinions down the throats of others. Now don’t get me wrong, it’s fine to be mad at a team. No one likes every team because let’s face it, tons of teams are full of hot head assholes, not just in football. So guys, play nice because I don’t go online to listen to a bunch of people act like six year olds and even some six year olds know better.
The Dear HunterQuote Reply
Food descriptions are numerous in the books and occasionally tedious but at least it’s better than describing Jon (or Sam) walking across Castle Black again and again and again
Seven Hells BellsQuote Reply
The Dear Hunter,
I just see why football crap has to every where on the Internet. Every where I go it’s Superbowl crap. Even on a GoT website. LAME LAME LAME LAME.

If it’s test cricket, it can last several days. I thought the Super Bowl was a multi-day affair but I guess it’s over now.

Wait, what? Obviously I’ve missed something…

Javi Marcos,
Too bad nobody gives a damn what you think.
UnRobbQuote Reply
I’m an American, and I hate football. It’s boring and dumb IMO, but so is soccer, baseball, cricket, quidditch and NASCAR (Stock car racing wouldn’t be so bad if the courses were complicated like ramps, jumps, obstacles, right turns and they didn’t go as long, but I still wouldn’t watch it because it’s a giant waste of fuel).
Anyway the point is, GRRM likes football. That comic could be used with many a sports events. We have such feasting events for good fight cards. The dialogue could be changed for myself to “Sonnen is coming” (he’s goina get his ass kicked by Jones but that’s beside the point.)
The comic is good because the last frame parallels eddard stark sitting the iron throne on the commonly seen GoT poster with GRRM using his weapon of choice Remote.

Lampreys only superficially resemble eels, as they are jawless fish, whereas eels are ray-finned bony fish, like the vast majority of modern fish species. A capon is a castrated rooster.
