Instead of kicking off with a bang, the first episode of Game of Thrones season 8 strategically placed the characters exactly where they needed to be as the encroaching Winter drew close. As part of the preparations for battle, “Winterfell” gifted viewers a number of reunions — the most heartening of which saw Jon Snow and Arya meet for the first time since the beginning of the series. Jon was never particularly close with Sansa, who often alienated him due to his status as a bastard. However, when the pair reconvened after several seasons apart, they were ecstatic to see each other.

It isn't often you get a rock star-style reaction to walking into a bar and pulling a pint of beer. But that's what happened at Comic-Con Thursday when Pedro Pascal — AKA the Red Viper, the late, lamented Oberyn Martell of Dorne — poured the first few ceremonial glasses of Game of Thrones ale.

With all the character changes, non-book deaths, and plot alterations in the upcoming season of HBO’s Game of Thrones, you’d be forgiven if you thought the TV show would eventually have nothing whatsoever to do with George R.R. Martin’s books. But you’d be wrong.
