It’s the season finale! The aftermath of this episode certainly left the viewing community divided… even amongst the Watchers on the Couch.

5×08: We briefly gloss over what’s going on at Castle Black and Kings Landing before we get to the scenes that really matter in Braavos, Meereen and Hardhome.

5×07: This week we discuss the trouble at Castle Black, whether the High Sparrow is really as holy as he claims, Sansa’s predicament in Winterfell, and Melissandre’s proposal to assure Stannis’s victory.

5×05: In this installment of Watchers on the Couch, we cover episode 5 of season 5. We talk about Dany’s current state of mind, Ramsay’s position as heir apparent to House Bolton, and the sad fate of being a set of male genitalia in The Known World.

This week we change the format a bit and actually discuss the events of the show instead of repeating them. Tim gives details on a popular fan theory to non-book readers Sarah and Mike. Realize how ineffective the Unsullied are, and may have even uncovered the whereabouts of Gendry.

Episode 3 of season 5 of Game of Thrones is covered this week.  Tim, Sarah and Mike discuss Arya, the wedding of Tommen, Jon Snow as the new Lord Commander and Sansa’s return to Winterfell.

Tim, Sarah and Mike recap and discuss Episode 2 from Season 5 of Game of Thrones, “The House of Black and White.”
