And Salon.com just weighed in with a completely useless article that wants to explain why THIS has upset fans when fans have otherwise still rooted for characters in the past on TV (including Jaimie) who have done every conceivable horrible thing except rape. Except his ultimate answer says absolutely nothing at all.

Last night, on GAME OF THRONES, Peter Dinklage delivered a moment of such utter absolute AWESOMENESS that it can only lead his not winning another Emmy.
Right? RIGHT? I nearly yelled at my screen, "GIVE THAT MAN AN (ANOTHER) EMMY!"

I thought the same thing. He gave his Emmy-worthy performance right there
It made the episode for me--otherwise I found the episode kinda low key, surprisingly. Even with the Theon stuff.
" They described in graphic detail exactly how I would cry, and I did." It was that audition tape that won her the unusual porn star role of non-whore." Says Aeryn Walker who seems to be the only porn star not cast on the show as a sex worker.
Predictably the "non-whore" gets raped. Hence the crying.

I agree. Peter Dinklage's performance in last week's episode was epic.
Another one of those nights that I'm excited to see the reactions from the non-readers.
