SenorBeef, while I certainly sympathize - I would - please tone down the vitriol. Marley23 already admonished quixotic78 a few posts ago; don’t have a go at him when he’s already down and put him in a position where he gets insulted, but can’t fire back.
To everyone: To make myself perfectly, redundantly and abundantly clear, speculation about the future based solely on knowledge derived from the first season as shown on television is, of course, okay.
To address a point less clear, TV-guides, websites, blogs and so on are also out of limits - although that’s more of a grey area. This thread is designed to be a lowest-common-denominator only thread, which means what’s been televised. If there’s a consensus against this, I will of course revise this.
I regret having to codify the rules to such an extent, but history has shown that apparently with this show it’s been needed. Now, at least, there’s enough rope.

On a on-topic note, I wonder how the show progression is going to be for the youngest actors? Like the child playing Rickon, Art Parkinson, who’ll be 24 by the time the series ends if it keeps the bi-annual schedule? May this be why he’s been kept so off-screen, so we won’t get too attached to the actor?
