the song of ice and fire is gonna be the sweet sounds of jon on danny.

[BigDMcGee 3,355]

That's his aunt, you disgusting creep.

[SuitedAces21 2,723]

love is love, buddy. who are we to judge?

[Essay21 2,387]

There is no peer for this show. It's exists on a new plane of television existence.

[hank213 1,823]

This week seemed a bit anticlimactic after last week's ep. Important set up took place, but still...

 

I don't know how I feel about the sudden return of G and where that possibly takes the story but I have a sneaking suspicion it might bode well for a lot of the major players that have been around during his absence.

 

I also love how massive news was delivered in an almost off hand conversation, one that could've easily been fast forwarded through by those thinking "Not this bitch again..."

[BigDMcGee 3,355]

Shit is moving too fast, After years of going to slow, now they are trying to jam shit in.

[SuitedAces21 2,723]

just sit back and enjoy the GOAT

[Essay21 2,387]

Tormund asking if Jon brought "the big woman" was so great.

[BigDMcGee 3,355]

You miserable bastard, you're referencing an episode that hasn't been released yet.

[Theraflu 1,035]

Nah, that was in episode 5. While Essay IS that miserable, he's not that much of a dick.

[Essay21 2,387]

I'll wait here for my apology.

[BigDMcGee 3,355]

you can wait until the night king rips that apology from my cold, dead hands

[Essay21 2,387]

I got time.

[SuitedAces21 2,723]

i'm ruined for other television. this will be my last great love.

[SuitedAces21 2,723]

when the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives.

[hank213 1,823]

I have to admit, Sansa had me cursing her name. Well played.

[SuitedAces21 2,723]

i wasn't that worried. arya wouldn't get caught like that.

[Dubey 1,035]

That was a really good episode with some dumb parts. Nice recovery after the zombie dragon episode which was entertaining but nonetheless pretty much an abomination.

[Essay21 2,387]

some of the most entertaining television of all time and yet eo many people want to nit pick it to death. Sad really.

[Dubey 1,035]

I'm not even really nitpicking. I just feel like the writers are getting lazy.

 

This show was pretty much perfect for most of 6 seasons. Characters were deep and conflicted, actions had consequences, and the internal logic of the universe was vigorously maintained.

 

Now it feels like the writers are just going for the easy payoffs without really thinking about whether the characters' actions actually make sense. I can guarantee, in earlier seasons, the show wouldn't have intentionally mislead the audience for multiple episodes on the Arya/Sansa storyline just to deliver the "shocking" twist that they were actually plotting against Littlefinger.

 

It's still better than everything else on TV right now, it's just not as good as it used to be.

[Essay21 2,387]

I think it was fine for showing us that Sansa learned from the best and Arya would never betray her family. That's all it needed to do.

[Theraflu 1,035]

There were better ways to do it. Faster, more effective, better. When the only option for that plotline is "jesus christ this better not be real," then you haven't done the best job.

[SuitedAces21 2,723]

gimme a paragraph on a better storyline if its so easy.

[Theraflu 1,035]

Just be straight up about it, from the reverse angle, and do the whole thing in two episodes. Or, have Bran tell Arya a million different reasons why he should die, and off him in his sleep.

[Theraflu 1,035]

That bag of faces hidden under her bed was so fucking stupid.
