Game of Thrones Season 6 episode 9 “Battle of the Bastards” airs June 19 at 9 p.m. on HBO. This is the big one, so don’t miss it. If you don’t watch it Sunday night, I will personally come to your work on Monday and spoil everything that happened in it. Don’t risk it. Find a way to watch Game of Thrones already!
“Battle of the Bastards” will finally pit Jon Snow against Ramsay Bolton, as the army of Arya Stark attempts to take back Winterfell from that sadistic bastard.
Episode 9 of Season 6 will supposedly be the biggest battle in TV history.
SO YOU MUST WATCH. WATCH WATCH CONSUME WATCH (sorry, just watched They Live again).
Okay, so let’s say you’re not a billionaire and don’t subscribe to Game of Thrones . How will you watch the episode under those conditions? Very easily, y’all. And you can even do it without piracy, if you want.
HBO Now
HBO Now doesn’t require an existing cable subscription, which is nice. It’s like Netflix, except more expensive and with a smaller selection and you can’t create your own queue. But then again… HBO is HBO, which makes it pretty much worth it. It’s $14.99 a month, but if you sign up now through the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, Amazon or with your Roku it comes with a 30 day free trial.
HBO Go
Unlike HBO Now, HBO Go requires some networking, so bust out your LinkedIn and Google Plus accounts and start plucking those social network spider webs. You need full cable account information from an HBO subscriber, so get ready to wheedle.
Or just go to a bar and stop looking for technical solutions to problems with obvious social solutions. I watched the Red Wedding episode in a bar full of people and it was so quiet you could have heard blood splatter the floor. With some people calling this episode the “Bastardbowl,” it’s pretty much a football game already anyway.
