Game of Thrones Season 4 Episode 1 Season Premiere - What's new and What's coming

Are you ready for this episode guys? Game of Thrones Season 4 premieres tonight and fans are impatiently waiting to know what transpires post devastating wedding party from hell in season 3. If you thought the Red Wedding was rough, Game of Thrones promises more blood and brutality as it returns for its fourth season.

A lot of news building for that upcoming season since the first trailer was launched and people are continuing to wonder what we can get in the first few episodes to create the tone for the season. One way to get a quick look ahead without reading any spoilers online or browsing the same 30 second clips is to read the episode titles and synopses.


Tyrion welcomes an unexpected guest to King's Landing for the royal wedding, but fears he's come to the Red Keep for another thing. Meanwhile, Jon warns his skeptical Night's Watch superiors about an impending attack; Jaime struggles to regain his status in your own home; Arya encounters a face from her past; and Daario Naharis discusses strategy with Daenerys on the journey to the slave city Meereen.
And a recap for the last episode, DRAGONS! They're chilling out near Daenerys's feet. She sits alongside them and has them fly around. Offscreen, where shiny things cost less money. She walks past her army and moves among the Yunkish, who keep saying "Mhysa!" and reaching out to touch her. 

This is the type of reception that Viserys was imagining getting into Westeros. Then she gets picked up so she's crowdsurfing and also the crowd carries her into her new city. The message here is that Yunkai really, really loves her. Did you pick up on that? I guess I have to retract my claim that only bad things happen in this world. Daenerys is doing fine.

We close with a dragon's-eye-view from the scene. The left side from the screen is all regimented and orderly, however the right side is unruly. I'm not sure what it means, but it's the final shot of the season, so it probably means something. I encourage you to definitely spend the next nine months inventing symbolism for this.
