... Game of Thrones

(Sunday, 9/8c, HBO)

The action is literally all over the map in another eventful chapter of this adult fantasy epic. Up North, bastard Jon Snow is put to the test to prove his mettle among the Night's Watch brotherhood, while Tyrion wryly observes — and we finally ascend the great Wall. At King's Landing, Ned Stark is made aware of what a challenge it will be to be the King's Hand, and gets a surprise visitor. In the land of the Dothraki, Daenerys gets the upper hand on her ruthless brother. Bonus: We're treated to some of the most quotable lines of the entire series, including the treacherous Cersei hissing, "Everyone who isn't us is an enemy," Ned declaring, "War's easier than daughters," and King Robert revealing what people tend to leave out of the songs of legend.
