Ian McShane to 'Game of Thrones' Fans: 'Get a F---ing Life'

“Game of Thrones” fans got another earful from series guest star Ian McShane, who told fans of the show that they should “Get a f—ing life.”

McShane was asked about his time on Season 6 of the megahit HBO series, during which time he got chastised when he gave away something of a spoiler during interviews before the premiere. He told Empire Magazine (via EW) in their April issue:

“Firstly, you love it and secondly, you’ll have forgotten by the time it comes out. And what am I giving away? A character beloved by everybody returns. Get a f—ing life. The show is huge but some fans seem to identify with it [too closely]. You want to say, ‘Have you thought about your lifestyle? Maybe you should get out a little more.'”

McShane played Brother Ray, the leader of a small religious sect, on the show. He found The Hound when he was on the verge of death following his battle with Brienne of Tarth and nursed him back to health.

This is not the first time McShane has spoken bluntly about the show either. When he was first catching hell online before the Season 6 premiere, he said, “You say the slightest thing and the internet goes ape… It’s only tits and dragons.”

As Daenerys prepares to invade Westeros, she will have to choose a Lord to rule with her as King. Which of these men could actually end up on the Iron Throne?
Tyrion Lannister

Although not technically the lord of anything, Tyrion has earned Daenerys' respect and trust. He is also a capable and fair ruler, as we have already seen. Marrying him would also help quell potential backlash by showing Dany was willing to forgive his family's past transgressions

Jaime Lannister

With Tywin dead, Jaime is technically Lord of Casterly Rock and Warden of the West. And with Cersei crowing herself queen, he is the de facto king already. And like with Tyrion, it would be a good political move

Petyr "Littlefinger" Baelish

This blood-curdling union actually makes a lot of sense. Baelish has made himself Lord of Harrenhal and Lord Protector of The Vale, meaning he wields considerable influence in Westeros. Let's hope instead that Dany feeds him to the dragons.

Dany sent Jorah on a quest to cure his greyscale. If he finds one and is able to fight by her side to take the Iron Throne, his love for her, good counsel, and noble blood make him a wise choice

Jon Snow is now The King in the North, and he and Dany will need to pair up anyway to fight the White Walkers. Granted, we just learned she is his aunt, but that sort of thing has never stopped anyone on this show

Theon Greyjoy

Theon is the rightful heir to the Iron Islands, although he supports his sister Yara's claim to the throne. And given his (lack) of certain body parts, Dany would be free to continue on with Daario in order to secure an heir

Gendry

The bastard from Flea Bottom is tough and is the only remaining son of Robert Barratheon. Although he is bastard, Dany could reverse that by royal decree. And as with Tyrion and Jaime, the marriage would show people she is putting aside old grudges

Yara Greyjoy

They absolutely had some kind of chemistry when they met. You know what we mean. And Yara is poised to rule the Iron Islands, so this progressive union is possible
