Game of Thrones (spoiler-free zone)
A few have suggested it, might as well test the waters. The idea is to give people who haven't read the books a safe place to talk about the show.

The books are filled with such detail that you can see in the show where they have to leave out some of that, and sometimes it gives a type of bouncy feel to those that have read or know the series. Going into these shows not knowing anything would be the way to go, if given the chance. |

I loved how they titled the episodes 'Two Swords' leaving you to ponder whether it referred to the two new Lannister swords made in the episodes, or the two Stark swords that began and ended the episode.

I suppose Longclaw could count, although it was a Mormont sword before being given to Jon. |

Ned's Broadsword is the first thing we see, even if it's summarily destroyed and Needle is the last.

two swords could also refer to Arya and the Hound.

Really funny. Spoiler alert, but only for the first three seasons.

Regarding last night's episode, let's not forget the other guy Arya brutally killed - slowwwwwwwly inserting that longsword into his chest while he was helpless on the floor.
