I've asked a friend to make me a gif of this so I'll post it when she gives it to me. In season 5 while Sam is reading a note to Maester Aemon about Dany he says "She sounds like quite the woman". This parallels Dany saying "He sounds like quite the man" when Mel talks to her about Jon.

Don't have gifs (yet) but Cersei tells both Unella and Ellaria that she understands how they felt.

Don't have gifs (yet) but Cersei tells both Unella and Ellaria that she understands how they felt. Her punishment for Ellaria is also a callback to her own focus on her daughter's rotting corpse in 6.01. And I honestly think this was recycling dialogue but using breastfeeding to describe her maternal love harks back to Oberyn saying the same about Elia.

Wow so many awesome parallels in here, y'all are tearing it up finding them all and half I didn't even realize. Well done Parallel & Symbolism Team. Well Done! This is my favorite one so far and I'm not sure how many show fans really got the reference on this one ...

I quite like this parallel because while the Stark Lord and son did not deserve what was done to them, we can see the complicated perspective that's at play here. The Dornish saw the Lannisters as evil for killing Oberyn and Elia Martell before that. The Starks saw the Targaryen king as evil for many good reasons but also because Rhaegar "took" Lyanna. While Ellaria's revenge motivations were all wrong in killing Myrcella, we can see ... from her perspective, how the Lannisters mirror the Mad King. The three great houses have been in this constant struggle for a long while now and Ellaria/Dorne are just pawns in that bigger struggle really. I loved the Dornish in the books, it's a shame they became jokes on the show. What happened to Elia Martell and her children was horrific. They did a fantastic job of making us care for Ellaria and Tyene a little bit there at the bitter end, however - so no one's laughing now. Also, here's that bit of deleted scene of Rickard/Brandon's death scene in the throne room from Season 1 ... it's amazing now much of this is coming back into play now.

Cersei tends to attract a lot of tragic accidents... (The gifs aren't looping but you get the point)

But I guess she could've just said that the Mad King's old wildfire spontaneously went off bc it's such a volatile substance, and that pyromania is why they don't need another Targ on the throne. Only an idiot would believe her, of course, but it would have been another opportunity to smear the opposition.
