That episode was hot garbage. Only fanboys with their heads up GRRMs a-hole would think this has been good so far.

I was very surprised Arya and Gendry banged and that Jaime and Brienne didn’t.


Arya was really the only person with a good reason to get laid. She wanted to experience it before she potentially died.

Brienne is very closed off and it doesn't really go with her character. She's been focused on being accepted as an equal for the entirety of the show and she got that from someone she respected.

Also, I don't see Jamie doing that given how it might affect his relationship with Brienne.

Anybody else notice the full 10 seconds of screen time Ghost got this episode?? Can’t imagine how expensive that must have been!

I loved this episode. The knighting of Brienne was one of the best moments in the entire series.

I enjoyed the episode a lot and the conversations the characters had.


Agreed. I was hoping for a faster paced episode, and there were definitely some overly cheesy moments, but I enjoyed the episode overall.

- liked that they got straight into the Jaime interrogation. Thought it would be bran that saved him, but Brienne was a nice touch.
-Maisie just looks too young to pull off Arya’s cockiness. Feels cheap at times. Glad she finally got with Gendry, but curious how many thousands/millions of people googled “Maisie Williams age” immediately
- liked how they handled Jon telling Dany. She parroted our exact thoughts, and I’m assuming the preview is him trying to say he doesn’t want the throne and her telling him frick it for now, mount up “the dead are here”
-100% Team Tormund but the fireplace scene was too much
-unsullied look BA in winter gear, and grey work is fricked (IMO). Ready to see him go out like an absolute champion.
-ETA I know several have predicted it, but I loved Sam giving Jorah Hartsbane

Congrats boys and girls, we made it through the set up. Gunna get crazy next week.

Episodes 1&2 should have been combined in a longer premier episode that ended with the battle about to start.

Tonight was great though. I don't know how people are complaining so much. We only have a few episodes left of an all time great show that has been on for almost a decade. Enjoy it while it lasts!!

I mean, Sam literally said it was too heavy for him to wield. Makes more sense for him to handle deagonglass, which he’s killed a white walker with before.

But I gotta say, he's still probably a better fighter than Sam.

No offense to Slayer Sam but come on.

also think this is overlooked. They are all ready to die before the sun comes up. There’s gunna be some “I gotta get this off my chest” cheese.
