Take the Black Podcast: We tear into “The Last of the Starks”

facebooktwitterreddit

Welcome to another fun and exciting episode of Take the Black Podcast with House Razor, the unwanted direwolf of Take the Black Live with House Selcke who pawned us off on a wildling who will probably cook us for sustenance when it gets cold. On this week’s episode, we dismantle Game of Thrones Episode 804, “The Last of the Starks.”

Our topics:

  • Emilia Clarke, Sophie Turner and Gwendoline Christie all turned in superb performances in their roles as Daenerys Targaryen, Sansa Stark, and Brienne of Tarth.
  • Why doesn’t Jon love Ghost?
  • We are not fans of the writing in this episode. Perhaps season 8 could have used, oh, say…four more episodes to really flesh out the story?
  • Arya’s path has her checking off her kill list. Sarah gives some great insight into what Arya’s arc might end up like, especially now that she’s traveling with the Hound.
  • Is Euron Greyjoy the worst character ever created? Like…cartoonish bad?
  • Why didn’t Dany see Euron’s fleet? Did Rhaegal really have to die?
  • Did Missandei really have to die to get the point across that Cersei is evil?
