Here’s the new video!It’s available to Patrons only for the next 24 hours.There’s a little visual glitch at 12:00, that’ll be fixed in the public version.

What do you think of the video? This is the first time we’ve done a retrospective like this. Should we continue with vids on S1E02, S1E03, etc?

With the S1E01 video done, we’re now finishing the Elissa Farman and Essos videos – they’ll both be out in the next week or so. After that, we’ll continue with the Stark history video, probably a big GOT S1-S7 recap… Maybe a short video about the #ForTheThrone marketing campaign and the possibility of the Iron Throne being destroyed… Many more GOT videos are coming.

Thanks for your support! 🙂

Game of Thrones S1E01 Explained [early Patron release]

What does the first episode of GOT tell us about Game of Thrones Season 8? What do the white walkers want? What happens to the Starks? How does Daenerys’ story begin? How do the Lannisters change?

I think that everyone will agree with me, when I say yes please make more of these!

Robert Elliott

> Should we continue with vids on S1E02, S1E03, etc? This ^. Every single episode!! 🙏

Forgrimtiltv

Would love to see many more like this!

Aslam Nathoo

Yay! So glad you’re back to making GOT vids. And glad you’ve come back to GOT in advance of the final season with some great videos planned. Can’t wait for this whole series!

Natasha Ivy

I loved this. And am so glad Jon Snow's abs finally got a shout-out! ;)

Kenny Arnold

I did literally lol at the Jon Snow's abs part

Ever Salazar

Someone looking for the explanation of just the S01E01 will find massive spoilers ahead, so... maybe a spoiler warning?

Johann Naylor

This is a great look back, thanks for making it!

Rikke Holmberg

Awesome 👏 Jon Snow’s abs deserve a little recognition. And yes to what Ever said about spoiler warning. You might get some first time GoT watchers on this one.

Kelly Theobald

The abs joke was great, as was the Illuminati one 😂 I really liked the part about Ned’s and Tywin’s legacies. Makes me feel a lot better about Ned’s death. Also, cool comparison between Jon and Joff at the feast.

Lynn Short

I LOVE this idea. It kinda means you wouldn't have to go through the entire series...though I certainly wouldn't mind that. I like that you linked up what happens in earlier seasons with what happens in later ones as there are soooo many easter eggs, fore shadowing and parallels with different characters. I'd actually like to see a video showing the various parallels with Jon and Dany. Also LOVE the abs joke. Who wouldn't?

Paul Barry

Really enjoyed this; very well done. A few more would be fun, but I don’t think you can go this deeply into foreshadowing and theory-crafting for the entire series, because...well...in later seasons, D&D threw logic and consistency out of that same tower.

GemmaG

It's great! It's easy to forget that most fans aren't really paying much attention so this will really help them AND you give us superfans some food for thought/ reminders. You have also prompted me to want to rewatch S1 now!

Jennifer Grasso

What a great video. I never would have thought about this kind of analysis. I wonder if some of these parallels were intentional or coincidental or both. I hate to give D & D more credit than they deserve but good on them if this was a well thought out idea.
