I don't care for Sam's moment of heroism. I want to see Coldhands!
He's more associated with Bran's story anyway. We probably won't get him until next season if at all. I bet they want to keep his identity a secret as long as possible.
I don't know. We saw all his ravens tonight. He's probably coming before the end of the season. I'm inclined to think he's Benjen, but I may be wrong. It's just really weird that we're five books in, and we still don't know what happened. I remember at first I thought that Coldhands and the three-eyed crow were the same. Speaking of which, I'm not convinced that the Three-eyed crow isn't somehow connected to the White Walkers.
He is not Benjen. It is said in the books that Coldhands was 'killed long ago'. It is more likely that he is the Night King.
Good point. And that was one of the COTF, too, so you know that when they say something was "long ago" they mean it. Still, would you agree that Benjen is probably going to show up again? I would be inclined to leave him for dead, except that he's never been confirmed as such in any of the appendices.

Actually, he's a fucking asshole. I don't know if you've read the books or not, so I'll just give some examples why he is in spoiler tags:
Mainly because of his treatment of Tyrion. Tysha, Tyrion's first wife, wasn't a whore at all like Jaime told him, but genuinly in love. However, Tywin forced Jaime to tell Tyrion she was paid to "make him a man", and then had all his guards raping her while Tyrion watched and when they were all done Tywin forced his son to do it as well. After the battle at Blackwater he hardly acknowledges Tyrion's contributions to the victory, treating him like the good-for-nothing imp responsible for his wife's death and stain upon the Lannister name he always saw him as. He also refuses to let Tyrion inherit Casterly Rock even though it's his by birthright. Sure, he handles his business like a boss and is both intelligent and cunning, but he really is a massive fucking prick.
i like this night king theory for coldhands. the night king was always one of my favorite backstories that characters would reminisce about here and there in the books. that and the rhaegar targaryen backstory. btw rhaegarhas to be jon snows real dad, with lyanna stark being his mom. it makes too much sense to me. in fact, george rr martin would be a complete dick if this wasn't so.
so basically tywin used tysha to avenge his wife's death, as distorted as that view might be to blame him for it in the first place, how is that type related?
I would be very surprised if Jon's father turned out to be Eddard. It has to be Rhaegar, and his mother Lyanna.
What happened?WTF @ Game of Thrones.
What happened?
A bucket of cold diarrhea was dumped all over the audience.
To reveal the spoilers would prevent you from suckling the teat of life's pain.
