Just curious where this episode falls into the series for everyone after having a day to reflect on it. Personally, not sure it's the best for me, but certainly in the top 3. Though may just be caught up in the moment I suppose.

Hardhome

Action is not the only criteria.

Beyond the action scene, why does it rank so high? Action scene was great, especially because the show moves so slowly, any action is welcome. Take away the fighting scene and it's just like every other dull episode this season.

Tyrion joining Daeny's storyline will make hers FAR more interesting. I enjoyed their scenes together.

Top 5 for sure. Maybe Top 3.

The biggest thing was finally seeing how big a threat the Night King and his Zombie pals really are.

Dany + Tyrion was great....Glad they are finally picking up the pace to Arya's story as well.

This season has seemed to take longer than previous seasons but I have high expectations for the last two episodes.

The Cat and the Canal Scene was great, Cersei begging in the tombs and her scene with Qyburn were great, Sansa and Theon's scene was great, and Tyrion and Dany meeting was great. Only thing I think wasn't simply great was Ramsay's scene, but that's solely set-up.

And if you tell me "The Watchers on the Wall" is in your favorite episodes, then you're a hypocrite. No substance to that episode but a long battle.

My thoughts exactly. This episode was far more than the 15 min battle scene. Hell, I could be had that the best scene(s) of the whole episode wasn't the battle scene, but the Tyrion & Dany scenes.

And I liked the Ramsey scene just because when he said all he needed was 20 good men, the first thought that popped up in my head was "I believe this sick bastard could seriously do some messed up crap with 20 good men. What in the hell does he have planned?"
