<<<<<<<Spoiler Alert>>>>>>> In comparison to other Game of Thrones’ season finales, “Mother’s Mercy” leaves us with many cliffhangers in the plot lines of many favourite characters. As in other episodes, some scenes were marvellously executed, while other ones were not. Overall, “Mother’s Mercy” did not feel like a season finale to me due to the […]

The first season of Outlander has come to an end with an emotionally intense episode, “To Ransom a Man’s Soul.” I have watched the episode thrice. The first time, my husband was with me, and he could not stop saying, “when will these rape scenes end?” I shared the same feeling with him. The second […]

“Hardhome” was an entertaining and exciting episode to watch. At this stage, the TV show is intriguing since some of the source material has not been published yet.

The level of tolerance to disturbing scenes on movies and TV shows varies among people due to different experiences. In my case, […]

One of the scenes that I disliked watching in “Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken” is the rape of Sansa. Basically this is not something that happens in the books. The character who is raped is Jeyne Poole. I am not a book purist. In fact, I do like certain changes the producers have made to some book […]

In regards to episode 506, “Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken,” some of the few scenes that I like were those ones associated with Arya. However, I am not happy with the adaption of other scenes.

<<<<<<<Spoiler Alert>>>>>>> I really enjoyed watching “The Search.” This episode was full of superb acting, beautiful music and significant lines. Furthermore, I cannot wait to see the next episode, Wentworth Prison, which I read somewhere that it will be disturbing. It will be violent and degrading for Jamie mainly. I am hoping that my presence […]
