Season 5 premier of Game of Thrones, lacked the lustre you would expect. It was not bad at all, but considering how last season & episode ended, I was expecting better. I was expecting more!
***Spoilers***
Cersei knew since she was kid that all her kids won't be king's and all will die (flashback). Lancel Lannister is back and he's a "sparrow", a religious sect. Tyrion and Varys arrive in Pentos, where Varys asks Tyrion to join him in visiting Daenerys, to support her in conquering the Iron Throne, and he kinda agrees. In Mereen, Sons of Harpys are killing Daenerys' soldiers. And when she goes to see her 2 dragons, they almost attack her. Baelish takes Sansa away from Vale, somewhere Lannister's can't find her. And Stannis asks Jon Snow to convince Mance Rayder to bend the knee and have wildlings fight for him, or burn & die.
****Spoilers end***
Cersei is still mopey and so is Jon Snow. Now even Tyrion is moping around, although hopefully Varys saves him. Daenerys' story seems to be taking some interesting turn and her scenes seemed nice. Baelish is secretive and cooking things, which seems interesting as well.
But honestly, not much happened. Not as much as one may expect. But it's not a bad start for hopefully an exciting season.
