I don't know - don't get your hopes up after Yara's awesome build up to rescuing her brother 'Reek'. That huge awesomeness just turned into a pile of crap. :(

I know, right!? not really a fan of that side of the story, seems to have gone stale! But I do agree... massive let down!

I honestly thought it would end up with The Hound coming back and killing his brother in some sort of fashion, but that seems long gone now!

Agreed, that was terribly handled. So many of these plots seem to be going nowhere.

Also little nakedness from actresses who seem to think they are too good for it now.
 
We have seen Daenerys naked several times; dragon boobs, incest boobs, forced affection boobs. Generally situations outside of her control, the one time she wants it......nothing!

Emilia clarke who plays Dany has said she doesnt want to do any more nude scenes and wants to be taken seriously as an actress and felt like she couldn't do that getting her kit off every other week for GOT.

She has a point I believe.
 
Fair enough though I take her as a serious actress, she is half the reason why people watch the show. A gritty love scene wouldn't hurt.......:p:o

Isn't that doing the opposite? It's all well and good bringing a character to life through acting but then when a scene is written that requires "a pound of flesh" and then not following through is not playing the role to it's fullest and actually taking something away from her role thus displaying a weakness to her talent and confidence in her role rather than strengthening them. Basically if she wants to be taken seriously as an actress she can't just pick and choose what she wants to do because it's not too her liking you either fully commit to a role or you don't.

Can't really take her as a serious actress when she's playing Sarah Connor since GoT, whilst all the other none nudey actors are in films like Pompeii and RomComs...

Either way, nude or not, we need more epic Daenny scenes.
 
Actually Lena Headey would probably be an awesome (if slightly older) Sarah Connor.

Anyway, I have mixed feelings on the nude scenes. Particularly in earlier seasons it felt like they were throwing them in as a shallow attempt to interest teenage boys, which broke the illusion for me. There are still times where I think these 'whore scenes' are there for the sake of being titillating and not much else...

That is exactly what they are.

Re Emilia Clarke. She's hot of course, but easily the worst actor in the show!
