Yup, there will be flashbacks on Game Of Thrones next season

“Making the first season, we set a rule: No prophecies, dreams, or flashbacks. We already failed the first two, and this season we broke the third. So yes, this season will finally have flashbacks.”

Considering a flashback plays a big role in a coming storyline for a major character (cue smug nod from book readers), perhaps this was inevitable. But it does present some exciting opportunities for the many actors Westeros’ trigger-happy creator has sent to the unemployment line—a Taxicab Confessions-style retelling of the erotic exploits of Oberyn Martell? Eddard Stark and Robert Baratheon cavorting through the countryside, disembowling foes and singing bawdy songs? Joffrey getting slapped for a solid 10 minutes? Oh wait, that already exists.
