Game of Thrones Recap 2.1 – The North Remembers

Welcome to the 2nd season recap of HBO’s Game of Thrones. As with the original season write-ups, I must warn you that my critique and summary will be a tad unconventional and less formatted than the other shows that I write about.

Talk about getting pie on your face, officer Ben Sherman (Ben McKenzie) has been riding high since the beginning of this season up until this episode where he manages to destroy the respect of his partner Sammy Bryant (Shawn Hatosy).
