I love how in Bran's vision, Jaime is a 40yo teenager and the throne room has King Joffrey's makeover. D&D managed to get King Aerys a time traveller jetpack

I literally forgot jaime even was banished from the kingsguard, that's how little impact it made to me

The only good thing about those visions is the guy who played Aerys had one line and he fucking nailed it

"You're Benjen Stark" is such a loaded, meaning-dense line that I'm mad I heard it now and not in 2016.

Shame Bran's visions only showed him Game of Thrones clips. I can see why he lost his soul afterwards.

Its worse than you think with Sam and Randal. He could have alowed Sam to follow his intrests as a Maester. Maesters vows relinquish familly and inheritance. Thus clearing the path for Randal's preferred son to inherit. He could have achieved his goals whilst making Sam happy and keeping the wife sweet. Sam would have been close and able to mantain family relationships during his studies but no threat to his brother Dickon or Randal's legacy. He would have then served in a useful well respected capacity making use of his talents but avoiding demonstrating his perceived shortcomings. No honour or face would have been lost. He sent Sam to the wall out of shear spite.

Pretty sure what ties all the images together is “Have you seen Game of Thrones????”

I remember always being so confused that after Sam steals Heartsbane no one gives a shit about it. Like Valyrian steel swords are like super valuable and rare to the point where even Tywin Lannister tried to buy one from different houses for an ass load of gold but no one sold it to him. So the fact that Randalls ancestral Valyrian sword is stolen by his son who he hates and he doesn't even care is just so bizarre. Like i'd assume he would be furious and send his men to kill Sam and retrieve the sword but i guess he forgot or something.

Randall was one dimensional af and they still destroyed his character. That's seriously impressive ineptitude.

The horse made it's way to King's Landing so Arya could ride off on it and then sort of not have done that in the next episode. It's a dramatic exit horse.

Dany making her whole army her bloodriders pissed me off so much. The whole point of a bloodrider is so that when the Khal dies, the bloodriders return the body to Dosh Khaleen, then kill themselves!! She literally ensures her whole army dies with her it doesn’t make any fucking sense!!! Edit: Love how this turned into an argument about trump. Yay KZfaq comment section!

I absolutely HATE the "you're all my bloodriders" thing because it just shows how the writers didn't care about consistency in their setting at all anymore at this point. Not because they promise something that never happens (season 8 wasn't even out yet when I first saw this scene) but because when someone is a bloodrider they're not only meant to kill the person that kills you but they're also meant to kill themselves afterwards. Which means that by making all of the Dothraki her bloodriders Daenerys basically guaranteed that the entirety of the Dothraki would cease to exist if she were to ever die in combat. Which is either a subtle demonstration of the growing narcissism of the character of Daenerys Targaryen cleverly and skillfully setting up her eventually turn to the dark side or... you know, just shit writing because these writers never think through what they're putting on the page.

God this episode is like a character mass murder. No one is spared. Everything in King's Landing is egregious.

Not only would Sam standing up to his father have made for a better scene, but would've made more sense. His entire character arc, at least in the show, has been a coward learning to make a stand in spite of his fear. He did it when Jon left Castle Black, but was still trembling and afraid. He did it again with the white walker, again with the wildlings storming Castle Black. His best friend is Jon, who grew up with Ned "a man can only be brave when he's afraid" Stark, and he'd begun to embody that message. Sam knows his dad's a jerk and considers him weak, so bluffing strength to make himself look stronger might've made an impact on his dad and cause him to second guess himself, allowing Sam to put Gilly there and protect her, which was his entire goal. He's spent years at the wall; even if he's scared of his father, his father doesn't know that. It would've been even better if his bravery STARTED as a bluff, but it became genuine as he realized his grumpy old man father and never-seen-combat brother are nothing compared to what he's seen. He, Sam, has KILLED something worse than his father and brother put together ten times over. He should've started off feigning confidence, before becoming truly confident as he spoke to them; people he used to fear, but now sees as little more than jokes. That revelation could've been a turning point for Sam's character, where he has to figure out who he really is, now that he's not a coward. Now that HE'S the one in control (for the first time in his life, no less) he needs to figure out whether he's a bully like his father, or better than that. And when he concludes that being compassionate and caring is a better way to be, that'd be FURTHER character growth tl;dr they did the fat boy dirty

The main takeaway is how poorly handled Meera’s character was. Oh and how poorly handled the writers cocaine supply was

Everytime ollie says potatoes I burst out laughing

I am extremely disappointed you didn't mention Mace's awesome speech! How could anyone fail to be moved after that speech! It was incredible, I'd follow Mace to the ends- well okay maybe not the ends of the Earth, but like, maybe down to the shops? Oh yeah! I'd follow Mace down to the fucking shops and back after that speech.

I so wish Sam would've asked his father just one simple question: -The Night Watch has sent ravens to all the notable houses of Westeros, with a desperate plea for help against the oncoming horde of wildling. Did you receive one, dad?

When I saw them recreating Jaime killing the Mad King but had his current short hair I realized D & D were a bunch of lazy bastards. lol

Is it bad I look forward to these more than I did the actual season 8 episodes?

Yeah, I love Gilly. I did love Sam. Then the writers lobotomized him before the beginning of this episode.

Arya learns to viewpointshift and decides it's not for her as it gives +1 to insight but -1 to bloodlust and she's trying to max her damage to fight the big bad later in the campaign.

Randal literally threatened to kill Sam if he didn't go to the Wall. Only he had to be covert about it because murder and kinslaying tend to be frowned upon ("somewhere in these woods, your horse will stumble"). Now Sam is returning making a full display of breaking his oath to the Night's Watch by claiming Little Sam is his child. There's literally nothing stopping Randal from just executing Sam as soon as he walks through the door.

Just thinking about the fact that Daenerys locked herself in a burning room with a large group of bloodthirsty warlords who’ve lived their whole lives on murder, rape, and conquest, and those warlords just decided to burn to death rather than murder her as their last actions when they realized they were going to die

Randyll Tarlythe Lord of Horn Hill and the head of House Tarly, a vassal family of House Tyrell of Highgarden. He is a fierce, ruthless warrior and a highly effective general. Is a mega chad based old man whom named his second born son Dickon for the banter.

Really would have expected the joke during Brans visions about him watching Sansa's wedding night.

I did like Jamie in the books, where he is going around trying to end the war by making deals with the other lords. It showed he had changed. Instead of violence, he used his intelligence, diplomacy and was quite willing to stretch the truth when reporting back to the crown. The TV Jamie never grew up. EDIT: I forgot about Arya being punished. I seem to recall in the books, she is made blind because she's starting to enjoy murdering people a bit too much and is doing some extra curricular work. It made sense in the books but not in the show.

"head being beNeded" fuckin brilliant mate lmao

Jamie and Cersie are my favorite characters and they are just tossed into the garbage. In the books, Cersie is so batshit crazy that she THINKS Tyrion is hiding in the walls. Cersie has nightmares about it. Jamie is so lost in the mess that I almost forgot who he was during this episode. Probably because Jamie Lannister was not in this episode

I know it's pretty much unrelated to this video but I'd love to see you address the issue where Brienne pledges herself to Sansa and then ends up serving in BRAN's kingsguard, even though she could have been Lord Commander of Sansa's queensguard in the north. Just a thought that I haven't seen any youtuber address yet...

Can’t throw a brick, it’s too heavy. But a can of soup, you can really put some power into that, right?

Dude i totally forgot Jamie was stripped of being a Kings Guard. Big moment made small and forgettable... yikes.

I don't even have balls and I felt blue balled by the Tyrells just... giving up for no reason. Foreshadowing for season 8, I guess.

Dear Glidus, Thank you for not only recapping and pissing on this show in the most expert and delightful way, but also for being so clever with puns: the benedding of head was one of my favorite! As per your request, I shall check out your song in due time. Wishing you lovely holidays and remaining yours, Your faithful viewer Maggie

As usual, your videos are insanely good, keep it up m8!

I will NEVER stop getting entertainment out of shitting on GOT. Good to know there's other who understood that S6 is bad writing, great visuals, great fight scenes, but awful writing

Your dissection of the show always reminds me how much I LOVE this show. The universe is so amazing and had so much potential. Just little things like the concept of bloodriders make the universe feel so real and creative.

glidus, don't you know that it's illegal to be this funny and smart?

The funny thing is that in the books Sam thought his father might find it amusing that he "fathered" a son with a Wildling, considering the reputation of Wildling women.

WOAH You almost scrolled right past me. Calm down. And make sure you check out my band's debut single, Slipping Away: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pK2la7qQ37Wzh6M.html We have so much music that we're so excited to share with the world. Sitting on this stuff privately for this long has been arduous. Keep your ears peeled (?) for Materia. No that isn’t me dancing. oh yeah also merry christmas lol ALSO thanks for 60k wow there's a lot going on today

"But knowing what happens, it's just so fucking empty." Dude you just described the entire show.

Once again Daddy glidus comes through for me, I was getting worried episode 6 wouldn't face the axe

14:15 you know now that you mention it the Tarly castle is incredibly lavish for a family of their status don’t get me wrong I know they’re an important and somewhat powerful family but when you compare this to Casterly Rock in the show it makes you wonder how the Lannister‘s who are not only one of the great houses who were kings of the west for thousands of years yet their castle looks like a small fortress where the Tarly castle actually looks like something to behold it actually looks like it belongs to a family that is extremely wealthy extremely powerful and yet House Tarly aren’t even one of the richest families In the reach The most noteworthy thing they’re good at is producing at soldiers

Ive watched this series 3 times, and genuinely have no memory of jaime being fired from the kingsguard

just got my driver license holidays begins today and glides uploaded a new pisstake episode. Today is a good day

I so feel Bran, I also have a caleidoscope of GoT shots shifting through my mind, and it makes no fooking sense!

that mario music behind "I did" gets me rolling every time.

I just will never understand why Randyl is supposed to have such a deep abiding hatred for wildlings... he’s not northern? He’s never met a wildling, none of his lands have ever been raided by wildlings, he’s never had to send armies to fight the wildlings, like why would he hate them soooo much? If anyone can explain that to me, I’ll appreciate it :)

Chocked at the Tim minchin "Sam's mum" sound bite 😂👌

I genuinely check your channel daily to see if the next video has been put up. Honestly you crack me up you absolute legend

s1 Jaime Lannister: Attacks Ned Stark as result of Cat kidnapping Tyrion. s6 Jaime Lannister: Just gonna talk about murdering people to solve problems. Brought to you by DnD character development Ltd. & Co.

Just got done a long shift at my job, tired as hell and sat down to watch this. I knew something was off when I heard it but it took my tired brain several seconds to process "head being beneded". Bravo sir. 👏

_"A wildling who is totally pulling off your daughter's dress by the way."_ LMAO. MY FAVORITE PART.

Honestly, up until watching this video I had 100% forgotten that Jaime was dismissed from the Kingsguard at one point in the show. And I saw Season 6 at least twice.

A Glidus video…what a great holiday gift!!!! ☺️🎄🎁

You gotta keep clowning this series I beg. “It’s the only joy I can find in all this misery”

7:39 I would just like to say I absolutely adore every single one of your community references

"He can bloody well try" *deadpan stare* *burns to death* I love the fucking transition

New glimbus upload, time to rewatch this 38 times until I can recite it perfectly from memory

Bran’s visions are pretty much clips of all the fan pleasing events to come to just wrap up the series

19:36 No. This is "Dragon Show." Never forget that. Ever.

I love how Jamie can take off his kingsguard armor in one very cool motion. Like how John Cena takes off his t-shirt. Thank you for playing that footage over and over and scratching that mental itch for me. Would have been handy for Ser Criston Cole to have a ripcord to get out of his gear quickly in a pinch.

the way you admitted that you added those extra clips just to make us smile really made me smile C:

The pisstake series is literally over 9000 times better than the show itself

Of all the mock names for this episode that were mentioned in this video, I’m counting it as a missed opportunity that “Butt of My Plug” wasn’t included.

Reliving this with your commentary gives a sense of peace to the anger I still harbor for D&D.

I just cululated the 1000 ships thing for the lulz. We'll ignore that there will not be enough wood on the iron islands, at least how shown in the show, to make that many. I didn't find figures on how long a single ship took to build in the 1800s, so I will use 2 figures that I would say are fair if not even unrealistically quick. Assuming it takes 10 weeks to build a ship, and they can build 10 ships as the same time, it takes 19 years to build them. Assuming they can build 20 at a time, it takes 9.5 years (duh.) Assuming it takes 5 weeks to build one ship and they can build 20 at a time, it still takes 4.8 years to finish them. Meaning that they could have not built a thousand ships in a few months like the show suggests.

4:15 yes, lords do that, or at least they used to. Gardening was, a long time ago, considered an extremely manly thing. Not farming food, actually gardening, like growing pretty things and trees n stuff. In olden times, it was a sign of power; it showed dominion and control over nature and the earth. Sorta like a "where I go, I create life where before there was none. The earth bends to my will and life appears at my command" thing. Which is a neater flex than killing, since it shows a lot more control and power.

another video by our lord Glingus, our early christmas present

Best Christmas present! Thank you for the new video!

The only thing thats kept me going while waiting for this episode is the line "Where are my niece and nephew.... lets go murder them". The hilarity of that has pulled me through

Just let me mention, Sam dropped out of the Citadel after couple of months at most -------> Becomes a grand maester for Brandon of the House Stark, first of his name.

30:20 "My eye! I'm not supposed to get pudding in it" 🤣🤣🤣 -Lenny Leonard I appreciate your Simpsons/Futurama quotes so much man. 💋🤌Chef's kiss 👍

I was about to say that this was just a good video but then... I always wanted to be a POTATO. Also Arya's psychological backflip is one of the worst things this season did for me.

I have a Morgan horse who climbs stairs. She climbed onto our deck one night. At a competition, she slipped her halter off while picketed one night and when we woke up, she was out on the mountain trail obstacle course doing the obstacles on her own

Bran says he can’t see the future in one scene, but then in another scene, when Tyrion asked him if he’d take the crown over the six kingdoms, he says, “why do you think I came all this way”, suggesting that he can see the future and knew he’d be asked to be king. I think Bran lied about whether he could see the future or not because he can see the future based on what he said about coming all that way and some of the visions he saw that were things that wouldn’t happen until later in the series, like seeing the shadow of Drogon over KL way back in season five, when Dany, was still in Essos. I didn’t blame him for lying because if they knew he could see the future, then they would all realize that the little shit knew Theon would die needlessly because Arya would soon kill the Night King. He also knew that Dany would go nuts and kill every man, woman, child, senior and disabled person in KL. You’d think he’d at least have had sympathy on the disabled people and warned everyone that Dany would blow a gasket and become the Hitler of Westeros. The actual truth is that D&D are such bad writers that they can’t maintain any consistency with any character in the show. I could go on and on about all of the shocking inconsistencies and bad continuity D&D wrote in their sorry scripts, ruining the entire show by giving us the worst ending of each character’s arc and the worst ending for every plot imagined. Before season five, I couldn’t wait until the ending of this awesome series, so I could sit down one day in the future and power watch the entire series on blue ray, but their last three seasons were so bad, it is not watchable from beginning to end anymore.

Glidus is one of the few creators that flawlessly inserts sponsors so hilariously that skipping it would be a crime.

I love that Glidus' ads have more continuity than s6-8

"have you ever met a man with 99.…potatos" classic!! :)

“We’ve successfully written ourselves out of peril.” Love your writing. Here from MISTA GG.

ALL THE TIMES YOU SAID RHAEGAR DID SOMETHING IM LIKE "What, when did Rhaegar did.... Oh >that< Rhaegar..."

Well... at least Dany looked super cute in that outfit in the last scene 😂

I look forward to these videos more than I looked forward to GoT episodes when they were airing. Thanks for your hard work!

The “You couldn’t have written anything better” argument is the weakest argument I’ve ever heard anyone put forward in defence of stuff. We’re not paid writers, we don’t have to be able to do something better in order to be aware somebody did a shit job of the thing they’re paid for.

Loki: “We’ve been waiting for this for 30 days!”

“I hear one of the annual holidays where people are socially obliged to exchange present is happening rather soon” If I take the religious observance element out of it, this was pretty much the sum of my thoughts on Christmas this year … and this is why I love Glidus

“Head being beneded”😭😭😭

No one: Ser Alliser: *"I DID"*

I really wasn’t expecting the binding of isaac reference but it made me so happy

I'm and trying SO HARD to pay attention to the things you're saying, but fucking 7 hells, I can't stop laughing. I losted COMPLETELY in "Meera is doing all the work.... am I right ladies?"

Just subbed to your band, legit your little snip is the exact music type that is my whirlwind favorite right now. Keep up the good work

Alright but that shot of Jaime on the horse is fucking awesome.

Thank you for the Christmas idea with the estates, Glorpus

Honestly you deserve so much more attention for these videos. One of the best got channels out there!

Not sure if you mentioned, but I love how the toddler looks like Craster!

The old three eyed raven was so much more interesting than the new one.

I am watching this a little less than two years since I last watched the show and I didn't even remember that Jaime was dismissed from the kingsguard, so that tells you how little impact it had on the story.

A new Glidus video is definitely the biggest thing happening this month.

for some reason these two seconds of 40 year old Jaime infuriate me to this day. Like c’mon make some effort, put Tommen in Viserys wig I dunno. They could make a zombie polar bear but find a kid to play joung Jaime? Nooo too hard. I’m mad, yeah. congrats on the song and on the band, I’m happy to be able to listen to your music. And happy holidays Glidus, thanks for making me smile!

Having a bad day, this is actually just what I needed😂
