I think there's a book prophecy involved where the Prince who was Promised is supposed to be named Aegon. Could be that the showrunners know the plans for the Aegon in the books and they are combining that character with Jon for the show.
Unsullied against White Walkers = 0 cocks. White Walkers reproduce asexually, but only on the TV show. Chances are high there will be the cock of some dead guy on the screen in season 8.
Jorah knows a lot about the world, especially some of the more obscure cultures in Essos. If he heard of a cure in Essos, I expect he would go there, but on the other hand, his clock is ticking. Instead of wasting time asking around, he went to where the world's knowledge is kept. The Citadel probably offered his best chance at survival.
It wasn't exactly canceled, they only wanted to do 70 episodes and when it is all said and done it will have 73.
Michonne would have already wrecked the night King before Season 6 even started.
In 50 years people will be doing full immersive and TV would be the equivalent of listening to old radio broadcasts.
Black Mirror episodes basically present some form of technology (realistic for the present/near future, or maybe way down the road), intended to help humanity in some way, then usually dives into some very negative consequences.
A couple exceptions, San Junipero and Hang the DJ, more positive than negative. You know going in there is a form of technology at play, but the true nature is not fully understood until the end of the episode.
What I remember from the pilot episode it seemed like they had something going in the past and had just broken it off. Here is the interview:

In the interview with Michael Hirst about this episode, he hinted that bringing the army was just a cover, Rollo has other motives that we will find out in the 2nd half of the season. [spoiler]He wants to know if Bjorn is really his son.[/spoiler]
Yeah, she has been trying to act like Ragnar lately when she leans in to talk to someone. Counting Bjorn, there is Lagertha, Floki and Rollo as the only season 1 main characters left. It's looking like at least 2 of those will be dead by the end of this season.
I guess if they were killing off several main characters and wanted each of them to have their moment, this was one way to do it. Sorta fits with the season so far, a lot of really great stuff with some random WTFs mixed in.
Also falls into the season 5 theme of fate versus free will. Aethelwulf fought against great odds to hold on to his kingdom, mainly because he believed he was meant to die in battle and decided to go down fighting. He succeeded, but still met his fate in the end.
He gets burned in the show, when the wight comes to attack Lord Commander Mormont, he is burnt by grabbing a lantern. Jon is not a real dragon, he is part wolf.
In the scene where they were talking about movie rights to her book, I was expecting her to say something about how she wants Jessica Chastain to play her.
Both the judge and Molly's lawyer already knew the sentencing recommendation from paperwork the prosecutors filed before the court date. It was done for dramatic effect, Molly's lawyer (and the audience) was supposed to pick up on it being something out of the ordinary that would work in her favor. A similar thing happened in the arraignment scene where he decided to represent her.
Episode 6 is like when you realize a pawn can do more than just block and fight other pawns. Episode 10 is like when you see the pawn reach the opposite side of the board and get replaced with a queen.
Depends on whether or not it is a cold open. The 2 they've done besides the pilot are the return of the Hound and Arya poisoning the Freys. Both of those in the beginning appear to be away from the main plot, with a reveal at the end. I'm gonna guess it will be Qyburn and Euron leaving Essos with the mercenaries, and at the end we will see Daario and/or Melisandre in the group.
1) Cersei doesn't really care to hide stuff like that anymore. Like the morning after when she was with Jaime, she didn't care people saw them together like that. It doesn't really threaten her claim to the throne any more than Jon and Dany are by directly challenging it. It's ironic because the War of the 5 Kings was started mainly by her efforts to cover it up.
2) The Vale was already mistrusting of Littlefinger due to his reputation, they're going to assume he put her up to it and blame him because they saw him do the same thing to Robin.
Yes, like she did after the Ghana trip where Michael put together that book of news clippings for her. Poor Michael, he was stripped of his mustache and spent the rest of the series breaking bad news to her and putting out fires she or her family members started.
They can make it shorter now that Carl is gone. He was a big part of the Whisperer arc.
