I thought it was good from a entertainment stance. Obviously nitpicking wise there was still a lot left to be desired.

- I hated how Jaime’s ARC ended. I just wanted him to be better than he was. I don’t think it was terrible writing on this one, he loves who he loves, I just was bummed. I thought the battle with Euron was really silly. And again just further illustrates the illogical moments designed for a fan hype.

- Cleganebowl felt dull to me. There were no stakes. We knew both would die. It wasn’t even really a fight either.

- I do think dany’s destruction is believable I just wish they would have shown it a little better. It also didn’t help that she didn’t get much negativity for what she did in Mereen. She’s been pulling this shit since Day 1. Also the biggest flaw of the season might be not killing off one of the dragons in the battle of winterfell. Having Euron go 3/3 last week only have to go 0/50 afterwards was just dumb.

- I did enjoy Arya’s scenes and seeing the destruction first hand. But again, based on how this season was going you knew she wasn’t going to die. It would have been funny to see the outrage of giving Arya a random meaningless death. Won’t even start on the horse.

I try not to nitpick because overall I enjoyed it and I have to go into work and say wow cool great to not seem like a loser/negative nancy but it kills me to know it could have been so much better.

Oh and honestly is Bronn even going to show up again? What the heck was the purpose in his two scenes this season.

Also since the Frey massacre has Arya worn a single face? Seems kind of like Bran, a waste of resources. Not that she necessarily needed one in KL’s but just made me think.

Here I have been rooting for Daenerys to claim the throne.

Probably in the books.


I do think this is what happens in the book. The white walker storyline is probably different, Jaime probably actually kills Cersei (maybe I’m still hoping on this one), but I do feel pretty confident that in the books Dany turns into the Mad Queen.

Yea I read that to and thought that would have been better! Though people still probably would have complained about Euron randomly showing up and sniping the dragon.
