I wonder what would've happened if Arya got into the Eryie. Would Littlefinger be creepy with her after he sends Sansa to Winterfell?

So just saw that Jonathan Banks (Mike from Better Call Saul) and Peter Dinklage (Tyrion) where both nominated for best supporting actor. Potato since you watched both shows which one do you think was better. Tbh I think Mike might be better as much as I love Tyrions character, but Mike was the star in Sauls show pretty much any episode with him was better. But Tyrion was also a bright spot in a pretty bad season 5... bane I think you watched both shows as well

I hope that when Sansa was stuck with the Boltons, she realized at some point that none of it would happen if she just went with the Hound. Then Brienne would have her. Which is, yes, good protection, but Sansa is a Stark. One of the last Starks, and the only Stark that can do anything politically. (versus Bran, Arya, Rickon) I'm glad Sansa is in the North because she's the only one who can rally the North against the Boltons. Of course, maybe I'm being too hopeful for show-Sansa, but book-Sansa is certainly on her way to becoming a leader. However, now that she's in the North, Theon told her that her brothers are alive. She could go looking for Rickon.

Like either path would've taken her to the Vale but she could go to Braavos with Arya or something. Or she should have realized Joffrey was a psychopath earlier and then she could have returned to Winterfell and maybe Ned wouldn't have admitted to stupid stuff and everyone would still have been alive. Ned was doomed the moment he informed Cersei he knew of the incest. It wasn't Sansa's fault. In fact, she did kind of save his life by securing the deal with Cersei... it's just that no one expected Joffrey to do that.

No. Littlefinger loves Sansa because she looks like Catelyn. She doesn't tho... She is supposed to look a lot like her... and she kind of does in the series, at least more than the other Stark children.

So admitting to his crimes allowed Ned to go to the Wall (which was a good deal by Sansa) but Joffrey messed that up.

He could have asked for a trail by combat, then he would at least have a chance to survive.

Then things would've gotten messy. Cersei would probably want Jaime to fight to ensure a win but then they'd have to negotiate with the Starks... the whole situation was bad. Best case scenarios for the Starks would be to either choose a lesser knight to fight Ned or just keep him alive and send him to the Wall.

But even the Lannisters didn't want Ned to die, so a trial by combat would have been a risk for all sides. Tywin and Cersei both knew it was a stupid and unnecessary decision to execute Ned.

Maybe they could just send in the Potato Rulestiest knight they had (like Meryn Trant) And then Ned would come out innocent in the eyes of the Gods. Which proves his accusations against Cersei and Jaime.

Oh yeah, cause they won't have ewoks. Fuck ewoks.

I think Tyrion has been all but one episode, maybe two but if say he's the lead actor for sure... Well maybe lead since season 2 it was probably Ned in season 1.
