The Red Wedding! FIRST TIME WATCHING GAME OF THRONES [REACTION] [3 x 9] 

I've watched the show a few times and reactions all the time but only when I watched them watch it did I realize what she said to him and was like awwwww ❤

It’s payback :)

Lol, that’s when you KNOW you’re good & pissed off!🤣

Shocking? Yes. The most shocking? Doubtful. There are decades of shocking moments in TV history...

@@havok6280 of course but none as talked about as this episode according to every social trend at the time. That doesn’t discount other epic moments in other shows but the world was captivated by Game of Thrones at this time. It was peak Game Of Thrones with everyone gathering around the TV every Sunday and then talking about it at work the following morning. Was an exciting time.

@@3twelve206 incorrect. Who Shot JR? Was just as talked about. It made national news. A decade later, the Simpsons even parodied it. Other examples: 106 million people watched the finale of MASH, still a record to this day. The Sopranos finale broke the internet. The All in the Family episode where a major character was almost sexually assaulted was also national news. Again, the red wedding was shocking, but keep in mind, a good portion of the audience knew it was coming because they read the book.

Wow, throwback

@@havok6280 you must be fun at parties. It's crucial to differentiate between "talked about" in terms of immediate social media reaction and historical milestones in TV viewership and media coverage. The argument conflates several factors, including viewership numbers, media coverage, and cultural impact over time. Let's break this down: For the Red Weddings social media impact, Game of Thrones aired in an era dominated by social media, which amplified discussions and reactions to unprecedented levels. The Red Wedding episode, "The Rains of Castamere," was one of the most shocking moments in television history, generating immense online activity. For instance, social media was flooded with reactions, memes, and discussions immediately following the episode, showcasing its impact on the audience. While direct comparison statistics are challenging to collect, the Red Wedding’s cultural penetration was a pivotal moment for pop culture, inspiring parodies, references in other shows, and becoming a byword for shocking television moments. Your argument against book readers vs the uninitiated suggests that the impact was lessened because some viewers had read the books. That underestimates the visual impact of witnessing it unfold on screen, which brought a significant shock even to those familiar with the books. The communal experience on social media and in person was a significant aspect of its impact. I am someone who read the book beforehand but had been following the show since episode 1. Who Shot JR?: While this event was a massive cultural moment, its comparison to the Red Wedding is slightly misplaced. "Who Shot JR?" benefited from being one of the earliest television cliffhangers of its kind, making national and international news. However, the media landscape at the time was less fragmented, and there were fewer platforms for audience engagement. The discussion was more traditional, through newspapers, television news, and word of mouth. Most people today would easily recognize Game of Thrones over that internationally. M*A*S*H Finale: The viewership record of the M*A*S*H finale is a testament to its widespread popularity and the era's limited entertainment options. While it was a significant television event, its nature as a series finale contrasts with a shocking narrative twist like the Red Wedding. This was just a mid season episode, not some grand finale to the series. The Sopranos Finale: The Sopranos finale broke new ground in ambiguous endings, prompting widespread discussion. However, the nature of the debate (interpretations of the ending) is different from the immediate shock and visceral reaction elicited by the Red Wedding. I also grew up in Jersey watching the Sopranos being filmed in my community. Huge fan. All in the Family: The episode dealing with sexual assault was groundbreaking for television content, addressing serious issues directly. While it did spark discussions, comparing its impact to the Red Wedding mixes the nature of the content's shock value with social commentary. The Red Wedding's significance lies in its shock value, the immediacy of global audience reaction facilitated by modern social media, and its embedding into cultural discussions. While historical events like "Who Shot JR?" had immense impact, the Red Wedding's conversation was amplified by the digital era's connectivity, allowing for instantaneous and widespread discourse. As I said, this doesn't diminish the historical moments' importance but highlights the evolution of how television moments are consumed and discussed. Cheers though! Hope you enjoyed the episode and glad to have this debate with you!

Same!

First thing I noticed, not edited as a two parter. Not this episode.

yep this is the one i've been waiting for since they started the reaction to the show

not really sopranos came first.

Should be “Jaime Lannister sends his regards” as in the books. That line was so much more powerful as Cat freed Jaime.

Should have sent him to the wall

heck, it's the reason reaction videos are even a thing. Book readers knew what was coming and taped their summer children friends who had no idea what was coming, and uploaded them to the internet for us all to giggle at.

I think it is definitely considered the best season by most people, but as good as season four is, season six definitely was my favorite

It gets better until it get shitier then ever.

I have the first 4 seasons about even, then 6, 5, 7 & 8. The last 2 seasons could’ve been ok, if they’d made the show have ten seasons (or each season have 20 episodes). I don’t really have a problem with how things ultimately end, I just hate how quickly they got there.

Took the words right out of my mouth

Season 4 had the best mix of gripping storylines, action and good dialogue. The later seasons had more action (not all of which worked) and the first couple of seasons had the best dialogue, but generally less action sequences (other than Blackwater). Season 4 had he best balance of everything.

we love your comments and look forward to them ❤️

Bro!!!!😂😂😂

I’m trying to tell ya! This is all of it.

Exactly! At this point, I just want to watch the world burn 🔥

My feelings exactly. Like I wanted to apologize for them having to watch this. I felt so bad but also all the other things!

Agreed! I like when reactors cruise through a couple episodes per video- then do ep9 and 10 individually!

It may have been tough but damn way better than what happened here I would say.

Roose Bolton is a jerk that way. Same as how he waited a long time after saying "Your sister . . ." so Jaime would be more and more scared that Cersei had been killed in the battle at King's Landing.

Or he even meant it genuinely. That he sends them his regards. As Jaimie of course is not a bad person at his heart.

In the books. It’s heavily hinted that when Bolton told Jaime he would send him back to Tywin, with no exchange or payment, he knew something was off. He essentially knew of Bolton’s coming betrayal and he knew that his father was behind it.

Also Caitlyn gets brought back to life kinda and ends up leading the brother hoof without banners to get revenge of the frays for the slaughter of the red wedding

Lady stone heart ❤️

Yep she's alive as a captive but she's pregnant with Robb's baby so he lives on at least for now.

and not freeing jaime

The fallout from the Karstark beheading still isn't finished, though

Its "mayhaps" lol

@@mack_taylor It's the same. In the translated version that I read, the word used was the same for "maybe"

@@DiegoFernandesLima that's interesting. The more you know 😉

Jaime was just being snarky, though.

@@HuntingViolets Not the point. Bolton carried the message. And delivered in the coldest, most traitorous way possible. Besides, writers put these things in there for a reason. So we will make the connections.

Efectivamente, Jaime hizo una promesa, intentar rescatar a Sansa y Arya y no levantar la espada contra los Stark y los Tully

@@Jose-Lozanchez: "Indeed, Jaime made a promise, to try to rescue Sansa and Arya and not to raise the sword against the Starks and the Tullys."

Yeah, y’all be blaming the wrong Lannister. Jaime did some shit, but he’s definitely the least Machiavellian of the Lannisters. He’s never successfully plotted anything in his life apart from the Tysha incident and that was his stupid ass attempt to be a good brother 😂 Cersei got all of Tywin’s evil scheming genes. None left for poor Jaime.

boy what a tough initiation

@@TheOctobersReact Proud of you guys for sticking with it! Some people stop watching after this episode. But there is so much story left to tell.

I agree. It hurt losing Ned and Robb. But there is still plenty of story left to tell. Arya lives, Sansa lives, Bran lives, Rickon lives so still some Starks left. Just know karma can be cruel.

Classic nickname 🤣 He's got the looks and attitude of Mr P. I'd be interested to know who came first; Bolton or Putin. George RR Martin wrote the books in the 90's, so I wonder if he'd heard of Putin then 😁

Ga❤️
