emeraldstudio There are moments when i have to reflect on what i have just watched. Just to absorb the emotional context before passing judgment. This show does not require such thought because its a very down to earth review of a show you are already interested in. I am not an author/writer movie reviewer but i felt the need to give a review of this show because my wife and i both enjoy watching and can't wait to watch another. Both hosts offer tongue in cheek humor while outlining the important moments of the show by staying true to the show without tainting it with nonsense. I hope the show continues with elegant success.

jonnithomas So these two guys that have watched GOT sit there and giggle together in a schoolgirlish way about the episode.They aren't articulate, amusing or illuminating in any way and are frankly quite irritating. the behaviour of these two adult mature males seems to be to emulate teen fan behaviour and ends up being a bizarre parody of young fans.I have watched two episodes and frankly wondered why I had bothered.My advice is to give this program a miss unless you have nothing else to do apart from breath. you could possibly enjoy it. stranger things do happen.

info-97595 I couldn't believe the lack of sincerity this show displayed. It was just a vulgar display of what the co-hosts feel they know. Moving at a pace that was neither watchable or entertaining, a juxtaposed conversation that was just too hard to absorb. Malory -when she made her appearance- was informative and watchable, though I do suspect if the other two were not there warbling away she would have quite comfortably taken their places. The way it was presented,one might have been watching four teenagers discussing their prom night. Too much banter and one-uppmanship for my liking-thanks but no thanks. Send it to a teenagers channel.

Nick For all the hype surrounding this segment, I found After the Thrones to be extremely dull and at times annoying to watch. The program is the latest extension of Bill Simmons' Ringer/HBO dealings which seem to be driving Bill's focus away from what he does best as a writer/analyst.After the Thrones began with Andy Greenwald and Chris Ryan discussing Jon Snow's death, but they failed to give any interesting or in depth perspectives about a potential comeback. The remainder of the show was basically a recap until Mallory Rubin showed up late straight from what I only can guess must be a Women's Studies class. Every opinion she had was somehow related to how the female characters are mistreated in the series and how happy she was that feminine leaders were emerging. The tirade about Brienne of Tarth finally coming into her element because she was no longer protecting a male character was idiotic. Note to Mallory, Brienne of Tarth has always been in her element in this series! Almost every man that has laughed at her has been butchered or maimed in some manner. She along with Ayra Stark are symbols of physical female strength in this series. In fact every facet of the show is now ruled by female characters bar the Boltons and Knight's Watch. King Thommen is simply a puppet of either Cersei or Margaery, depending on the day of the week. It's a shame and a waste of time. I thought once ESPN let Bill Simmons go he would push out unfiltered NBA and NFL content for once in his career. His unabashed writing with a small hint of pop culture references is what made Bill popular in the first place. Unfortunately, he's switched these priorities around and this focus on awful pop culture garbage is eating up his time to produce sports content. I'll be avoiding the Ringers' non-sporting related activities from now on. I'd suggest that anyone that doesn't want to hear a bunch of 30 or 40 year olds gossiping about E Entertainment topics like school girls should do the same.Stick to sports Bill this is just embarrassing.
