An early death is what happened in the latest episode of GoT Season 4 and not surprisingly, fans and viewers couldn't be happier. After all, it's the moment everyone's been eagerly waiting for – the death of King Joffrey.

Being excited about someone being poisoned seems wrong, but I just couldn't help it #GameOfThrones — Lindsey Bell (@lindseybell) April 14, 2014

They did a great of creating the Geoffrey dying scene. Watching him slowly die and change colors was amazing #gameofthrones
