Television Game of Thrones (TV) • The watch has ended

The most cringeworthy video ive ever seen is warick davis being interviewed by the yogcast. The yogcast in itself being a minecraft thing for 5 year olds made by 50 year old men. Theyve also interviewed johnathon ross apparently

I re-watched the last episode yesterday - one minor thing...

When Khaleesi claims to have 10,000 men, but is corrected and that it's only 8,000 - I thought she 'bought' 8,000 unsullied, plus all the slaves in training, which would add up to be a lot more wouldn't it?

Anyone care to clear this up for me?

Wasnt she only talking about the unsullied? As she asked the bear guy how many unsullied we have.

They seemed to completely miss her point there. What I took from her criticism was that there wasn't enough male nudity in comparison, not that she thinks all nudity should be banned, which is what they argued against. There's characters of both genders are described as nude in the books, but on screen we've basically seen a lot of female nudity, and a couple of glimpses of a man's arse, usually in a scene where there's a naked female too. There's also been quite a considerable amount of completely pointless nudity, mainly with the prostitutes. That's not to mention the hypersexualisation of Ros' corpse.
 
The guy who plays Jamie is Danish and Nordic actors have no problem going full frontal. Had a scene with him in the bath and didn't do it so I think there's a point to this unbalance.

They've also teased the gay crowd with a lot of pointless gay scenes so far without showing the goods. There must be some stigma in America towards showing the penis of TV. Doesn't matter if it's HBO.

I'm not sure if it is just an American thing, when Torchwood did a series with an American company they had a gay sex scene which was shown in America but not in the UK. Truth is, straight men have disproportionate viewing powers and that's why we get more tits and fanny than balls and cock.
 
I thought it was illegal to show an erect penis within tv shows? Maybe i'm just talking nonsense but i'm sure i read that somewhere which could be why they are iffy with showing women more than men. Plus they probably know more men would watch the show than women and therefore cram it full of the nude ladies to up the ratings.
 
It's not just GoT anyway, it's probably at the forefront because it's the most popular and publicised cable show in a very, very long time, but loads of cable shows are just as bad, or worse. Of the current ones you have Spartacus (way more tits), The Borgias, Strike Back, Banshee, Shameless, Dexter happily throws a few in here and there. The Sopranos also threw in loads of nudity for no real reason. Hell, Hung was a show about a male prostitute yet you never saw any willy, only naked women, and lots of them.

I doubt it's "illegal" but certainly way out of bounds for mainstream US, UK, IE networks to show boners or full on gash, yeah. Most mainstream U.S. networks can't even show any sideboob in their show, the policies over there are daft, it's one of the main reasons HBO and Showtime do show so much, because they know it's something they can do that most networks cannot in order to pull viewers in.

I think it is actually illegal if the program isn't labeled as pornographic. I'm pretty sure I got taught about it in Journalism and Media last year.

The US policies are incredibly daft though. They'll allow endless amounts of violence, swearing and gore in an R, but as soon as there's a pair of tits on show the age rating shoots up to NC-17, or in our case from a 15 to an 18. It essentially says that violence is fine but god forbid someone's exposed to a human body.

Nah, plenty of R movies have full frontal in them. NC-17 is reserved for movies like Shame. It is daft though.

I'm not sure about Spartacus. On an episode basis absolutely.

However, there were a few episodes in season 1 and 2 in the Ludus??? where there were like 20 or 30 dudes walking around full monty.

It was sausage fest 2010.

I really don't understand this whole nudity thing. One minute we're hearing that what's her face signed a no nudity contract, but then she's back nude again in the most recent episode.

Was her no-nudity contract only for 1 season?

No I don't think that's true. I think it's largely agreed that an erect penis would suggest a non-simulated scene and so it's avoided.

What's that movie....erm....something bus and it's got a blowjob scene in it performed in real by the actors. Short bus I think? Or maybe it's Brown Bunny. Not sure

Brown Bunny and Shortbus both have explicit sex. There's a scene in The Wire where the Mayor is getting a blowjob and you see his penis but I'm pretty sure it's prosthetic. So maybe prosthetic is ok.
 
You obviously didn't capture the screen and zoom in then, Cina.
 
What time would it stream live (British time) and would anyone know of any sites I can report to the authorities for having the audacity to circumvent Sky Atlantic?
 
It airs at 2am BST if you want to stream, with filesharing links usually up at around 3.05am.

Or so I'm told.
