I’ve nothing new really to report because tonight brings us the first episode of “Thrones” not made available to critics in advance.
HBO says of tonight’s “The Pointy End”:
The Lannisters press their advantage over the Starks; Robb (Richard Madden) rallies his father’s northern allies and heads south to war. Written by George R.R. Martin; directed by Daniel Minahan.
A spoiler for next week's installment resides in invisotext. Though things looked quite dire for Ned Stark at the end of last week’s installment, he does survive at least until next week’s.
After tonight, only two first-season episodes left. (The second season, due next year, was greenlit back in April.)
9 p.m. Sunday. HBO.
