Every single story moved forward tonight. Very solid.

Very interesting twist that dragon glass can prevent someone from dying. At this point it seems like we're just making up the rules as we go along...

I enjoyed the episode, but the warging-Children-White Walkers crap is beginning to be a bit much.

It was a nice episode, but a let down.  The previews and build up made it seems like we'd finally see some murder death kills with the Sparrow.  I had hopes for a little more action all around.

In retrospect, there was some good stuff here, but yeah it sucked overall. Biggest problem was it felt like they spent half the episode in King's Landing. The Tommen/Sparrow/Cersei storyline is tedious and lame. But silver lining: Jamie is headed to Riverrun to hopefully get back on track with the books, which is a far better treatment for his character! Welcome back Frey - that was good.

Sam and Gilly was ok. So nobody seems to have a problem with Sam breaking his vows with wife/child thing?

The great Uncle Benjen reveal fell flat. It felt perfunctory and overly talky, just to move the story along.

Arya was pretty good. At least we're finally moving on.

So sick of Dany. What a crap character and crap story. Why did they close out the episode with a scene that did nothing? They were already headed to Mereen. The hord was already following her. So she gives another pep talk in dothraki? But she was on a dragon this time! Stupid.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning.  They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.

Is Margaery really brainwashed or is she just pretending to be brainwashed? She's just pretending, right?

Was that the first time we've seen the Mad King? If so the way Bran's visions went it really does look like he's saying "burn them all" in reference to the White Walkers.

That was a really good episode. Those of you who disagree are mentally deficient in some regard.

I'd really like to see less clumsy work with Danery.  Oh on one side we're talking about building 1000 ships and hooking up with her.  Oh look, now she needs 1000 ships.  This show is better than that, even if it's superficial. 

I'm really wondering about that theory that the mad king went mad because of a bad worg like Hodor.  Cheapens the story a bit if they start getting into shitty time travel paradoxes, IMO.

As the title of the series indicates, the ending will principally involve Jon and Dany. I expect Dany to play a lead role at the end, but stop wasting precious showtime on her boring crap until she gets to Westeros.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning.  They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.
