I like to think that Sansa also is more Tully than Stark as she grew up. Becoming more like her mother physically and personally. She lacks most of the stubbornness that became an unintended Stark personality trait in most the family. A lot of determination and compassion too. So if Edmure doesn't survive this season, the Tullys might be gone in name but not in blood.

[@tyrant-den884]

There is more of her mother in Arya too than most people give either credit for. Perhaps the most successful mix of Stark and Tully is on the one who avenges family upon another family. She knows how to swim unseen in the waters, but this fish bites.

[@catelyntully9494]

I'd like to think they have a lot of tully qualities to, Cat had many problems and was exposed to HORRIBLE situations where she had to pick her family, but I'd like to think the girls have like "The good tully trails" mostly Sansa but I am so happy someone else noticed Arya to, Tullies are really good at adapting (like whith Aegon conquest), better than most Starks but I do love them both.

[@partycitydumpster]

@EmtronVenger oh that's right, I haven't read them in ages. I think she's characterized slightly better in the show. Or perhaps it's just Michelle Fairley's performance that makes me like her way more. Considering Catelyn and Ned's characters, it makes way more sense that Ned would feel an overwhelming obligation to go, and Catelyn would be against it. Since it's Ned's dedication to honor that kills him (warning Cersei and not paying Littlefinger to secure the loyalty of the knights) and Catelyn's dedication to family that kills her (setting Jaime free made them vulnerable).

So, all in all, Sansa has turned out to be the best outcome of Stark&Tully marriage. Robb (the way I see it) and Rickon were pure Tully, and also dead. Bran is a three-eyed raven, not of any house at all. Arya is more of a Lyanna's offspring, even if not directly. And so Sansa is the perfect heir for these two great houses. Who would've thought.

This analysis just makes me more angry they didn’t go the route of Lady Stoneheart in the show. Waste of a great character and amazing actress

[@jedimasters1462]

Don't forget that tv CAN'T do everything a book can. It takes a LOT of money to make a tv show, especially one with all the special effects Game of Thrones has. There are too many things in the book that is important to the story, but some have to be sacrificed for the even bigger things. They probably could have done Lady Stoneheart, but then we may not have gotten the direwolves, or Faegon and not the White Walkers or the dragons. A book or book series has almost unlimited space and resources for an epic story where you can have a thousand characters, creatures and locations, but tv and movies don't. It was probably cheaper to make the Lord of the Rings movies all together than Game of Thrones.

[@YoniLiron]

In the books Catelyn is the one who pushes Ned to accept Robert's offer, precisely because it will give him power to safeguard the family. Especially as the next likely candidate was Tywin Lannister. And also it increased Sansa's chances to be queen. So she did it because she values family, precisely the opposite of the show's take. In my opinion one of the show's early mistakes.

[@haleymyers8702]

“The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb” is the full quote. Implicating the brotherhood forged through the bloodshed of the battlefield is stronger than mere family ties.

[@omarmansuri7099]

If you think about it, it's Catelyn's biggest strength that's also her downfall. She loves and is so devoted to the concept of 'family', it also leaves her vulnerable to these same people. She thought Petyr to be as close as family to her, and hence believed him completely, never once doubting him. which is what caused all the ensuing bloodshed.

I love how Sansa and Arya really embody the Tully love of family. They defend their family so much. They also embody the importance of the pack surviving during winter. It’s such a good combination. One thing we admire of the Starks comes from how much they value family and a lot of that comes from Catelyn as a Tully. It’s unfortunate we don’t see their influence more in the series through their strong genes. In the books, all the Stark kids except for Arya have the Tully look. Amazing analysis like always!

Now if Robb was just a Commander then it would be understandable Ed understandable mistake. Even with the best of intentions. But Robb was a king and Ed king at that and though Robb himself mucked up it was still a order from a king to a subject lord. Do not attack the mountain. As such both men were in the wrong. Both messed up. But from that one action changed everything. As it allowed tywin to retreat and eventually align with the reach and race to relieve kings landing

[@tully667]

Aye! Tis a fine analysis of the best of the houses!

[@beautyisineverything]

The phrase "blood is thicker than water" originally meant "the blood of the battlefield is thicker than the water of the womb" but with the way the phrase is commonly used nowadays, "family is more important than friendship" it works for house Tully. P.S. I loved this video and learned/remembered more about the Tullys than I imagined I ever would :p

[@Nooooooooooooooooooooo7913]

I am getting my LIFEEEE from this back to back GoT content 😩😩😩🔥🔥🔥

[@oneisha3333]

Finally Catelyn gets some attention. The show has all the Stark children forgetting they had TWO parents guiding them.

[@mimiHTcat]

ikr? in the books, the stark kids think about cat and robb as much as they think of ned.

[@00lucyclare]

Catelyn was the one who actually persuaded Ned to go to kingslanding in the books before later regretting it after brand fall :)

[@vanzc7920]

Thank you so so much for doing these Game of Thrones videos. I love the Tully's and the Arryn's. Hoster Tully and Jon Arryn were two complicated men. Please do some more. Please also think about doing the Buffyverse.

[@milacruz3970]

Catelyn was my favourite character. What I would aspire to be

[@ChesVlog]

Your videos are getting me hyped now for S8

[@akicelene21]

Michele Fairley did an awesome portrayal of Catelyn Stark tho i dont know how she is in the books but her acting in the show is superb especially the in the red wedding. Gut and heart wrenching scene of mother trying to save her son.

[@joshuarodriguez1262]

OK this series is so beautifully done WELL DONE! You can tell they actually care about the show and understanding it in all it's layers rather than just pumping out nonsense theories every 24 hours

[@plindsey3]

I love your breakdowns of GoT houses. This channel is very good.

[@markotter2707]

8:57 "Blood is thicker than water" ...then wouldn't the thicker blood sink below the water??

[@OrDuneStudios]

Bouyancy is more complicated than thay

[@Xerxes2005]

The Tullys are the Habsburgs of Westeros. "Let others wage war; but you, happy Austria, marry!"

[@saranemcova5448]

Maria Theresa, known as mother-in-law of Europe 😏

This is a bit like a horoscope: you can always make things fit if you use enough words.

[@blessyie643]

The symbolism is absolutely phenomenal.

[@narnilphilomythus2821]

Absolutely love this. It would be great to have Houses Reed, Frey and maybe Clegane to finish this series, but you do what you want to do. 🤗

[@Guaranteed4Greatness]

Back to Back videos. Y’all on fire

[@stephaniemcdowell1010]

Thank you so much for these amazing breakdowns! Definitely thought provoking and even poetic! Awesome stuff!

[@Pantera2738]

why in the books the character are opposite to the serie? catlins is who push ned to accept robert proposal...

[@samuelbattershell3413]

I wouldn't call it feminine intuition, more like Hoster knew how to read the room. As after the show concluded, his son is Lord of the Riverlands, one of his grandsons is Lord of the Vale, another grandson is King of all south of the Neck and one of his granddaughters is Queen of the North, with the another granddaughter slaying the Great Other/The Night King. And he died still Lord of The Riverlands unbeaten of old age, the true winner of the Game of Thrones

[@akhileshkumar9678]

Yesterday, almost 100 comments requested a video on House Tully. Today it's here. Now that's called foresight.

[@abbyjames1131]

Show Catelyn did something rare - beat out her book characterization. Ironically, book Cat said Ned HAD to accept the hand position. The whole monologue about Jon’s fever wasnt in the book either, which surprised me because I found it so well done and touching. All in all, Cat is another “love to hate” character who is greatly misunderstood (a lot like Sansa)

[@fiyahspinnah]

You guys make seriously great content. Very thorough and insightful I very much appreciate it.

[@Krytonian1960]

These GOT Symbolisms are great. Can you do House Clegane, the house Sandor is a member of?

[@BaldingClamydia]

The scene where Cat tries to convince Ned to *not* go to King's Landing comes right after she convinced him to go! I'm pretty sure it was the same in the books, and while it shows her ability to be flexible when given new information, it still annoys me immensely! Lol

[@myst66]

Also, House Arryn has blue for their main color and they put honor above all else. Tulley puts the red over the blue, quite literally blood over honor.

[@justanothergirlwithacrazym9202]

This channel deserves much more! You guys are amazing! Keep up with the good work

[@nikitaonassis6090]

Love your insight into the characters of aGOT compared to other youtube sessions.

[@tereziamarkova2822]

I wonder, is this the end of the "House Symbolism" series of videos, or will they do more minor houses? Many of those they have already done, like Boltons or Tarlys, aren't a part of the "big seven", what other houses could they cover?

[@X-Bones]

Technically the Boltons were a great house for a short period of time

[@IonTorch52]

In the books Catelyn tells Eddard to accept King Robert's position as Hand of the King, even after he said he would refuse it. For some reason the show flips this around.
