GAME OF THRONES June episodes titles and descriptions

The Game of Thrones June episodes titles and descriptions have been released.  Sadly, it’s the final two episodes of the season, and after that, we’ll be back to groaning about how long it’ll be before we can watch Game of Thrones season six.  But for now, let’s just indulge ourselves in what’s to come in the immediate future.

These official descriptions really don’t say much, I know.  But if you’ve read the books, then you probably don’t need the descriptions to know some of the major plot points.  However, considering all the grumbling from previous episodes, then the books aren’t much to go by either. Either way, it’ll probably be another few to talk about or video record reactions on then post to YouTube (see “Red Wedding reaction videos”.)
