A Golden Crown Ratings & Reviews
ComingSoon.net
Laremy Legel
In this episode... we saw just how dangerous a game this is.
SFX Magazine
Rob Power
It's a flawless piece of television pulled off with the style and confidence of a major big-screen event.
Uproxx
Alan Sepinwall
Exciting, funny, scary, (slightly) tragic... though it didn't feature every character,... it had a whole lot of them, and a whole lot of what's quickly made this one of the best hours on television.
Daily Telegraph (UK)
Ed Cumming
Episode six was a corker: an hour of subterfuge [and] skulduggery.
Den of Geek
Ti Singh
Harry Lloyd (Viserys) has played the role with a magnificent balance of charm and menace.
CraveOnline
Blair Marnell
If I haven't been clear, Game of Thrones is easily the most exciting show on TV right now. And watching this story unfold continues to be the highlight of my week.
Wall Street Journal
Gwen Orel
Tyrion, telling of his childhood exploits, brings the funny.
TV Fanatic
Carissa Pavlica
The show tried to push too much into the hour and I felt it lost some of its intensity. And there were incredibly intense moments. They just deserved more time to grow. The pacing of of this episode left me wanting.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Margaret Lyons
Tyrion's "confession." So fantastic.
HitFix
Alan Sepinwall
Though the rule of law in Westeros - or characters' expectations for those laws - gets largely upended this week, the only thing that Game of Thrones has conditioned me to expect over these first six hours is a whole lot of entertainment.
Guardian
Sarah Hughes
Ned's actions were morally correct but politically naive, given his family's precarious position and the size of the crown's debt to Tywin. That said there was something magnificent about the way he dismissed the idea that gold wins war .
AV Club
Emily VanDerWerff
This was a strong episode for just about everybody (save Jon, who sits another week out).
AV Club
David Sims
I can hardly complain that this wasn't an action-packed episode.
Los Angeles Times
Douglas Wolk
Speaking of flying things, all the most entertaining scenes are happening at the Eyrie this time.
TV.com
Tim Surette
We have one really twisted royal family on our hands. I guess that makes Lannisport the Arkansas of Westeros.
Newark Star-Ledger
Jenifer D. Braun
This may be my favorite episode yet -- and that's despite the fact that there's no Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, the sight of whom is becoming increasingly important to my continued happiness.
Entertainment Weekly
James Hibberd
Be careful what you ask for, you just might get it. Want a golden crown? Want to capture the The Imp and put him on trial? Sure, but you might not like how things turn out. But I sure loved how Episode 6, "A Golden Crown," turned out.
IGN Movies
Matt Fowler
Still no Jon Snow this week in "A Golden Crown," but we did get a lot of movement in the Daenerys storyline, including the unceremonious demise of her bi-polar brother Viserys.
