Game of Thrones Season 8, Eps 1&2: "Winterfell," "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms"

Kotaku Splitscreen's special Game of Thrones coverage returns with a double-header recap of the first two episodes of the show's final season. Kirk and Jason go over what they liked (and didn't like) about both "Winterfell" and "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms," then share their hopes for the future, make some wild predictions, and guess who'll live and who'll die this coming Sunday.

We'll be back to recap that episode on Monday, and will be publishing Monday recaps from there on out to the end.
