Game of Thrones - Spoilers S8E6

[Sheriff Fatman]

Top 3 episode of all time I think.

Everyone seems to be saying this, I loved it too but didnt quite become a top three level ep for me, it had lots of awesome small bits and the best episodes for me have always been based on one massive scene, ie. Red Wedding, Ned's Lack of Head Makes Him Dead, Battle of Black Water, Mountain vs Viper etc

I agree.  Good, but nowhere near top 3 for me.  Off the top of my head, if I was picking them for my instant reaction to the major events:

1) Red Wedding, by a mile.
2) Joffrey's wedding and subsequent GTFO!
3=) Tyrion's escape from the Red Keep
3=) Danaerys emerging from the flames with hatched dragons.

Good to see that they're also finally acknowledging the wider family battles of the Ironborn that they've so far pretty much ignored from the books.  Had pretty much given up on this but was pleased to hear the word "Kingsmoot" last night.

I think consolidating Ramsey as a real real bad guy was big thing, good viewing.

Tryion and the dragons really big and good too.

And obviously Jon Snow.

Yup, really has filled a void left by Joffrey, whom I felt was a premature death at the time.

[HutchGF]

I think I'm going to adopt Tyrion's line from last night as my new mantra.

'I drink and I know things; it's what I do.'

Super disappointed about Jon Snow, so predictable

[AdamM]

Jon Snow staying dead was never an option. He's surely the point of the whole thing.

Good episode with lots of stories starting to get some momentum now.

Had a horrible feeling the dragons were going to give us a shock death for a minute.

Was very grateful of the cutaway for the kennels scene. A graphic scene there would have been too much.

Not very often we root for the Lannisters, but hoping those religitards get what's coming to them soon.

[TightEnd]

i mean there have been some deaths on GoT. hundreds of them

but the dogs/mum and newborn was one of the most shocking. great TV.

not an episode to match the great setpiece ones like red wedding for me but still buuilding up to some cracking stuff on multiple fronts

[AndrewT]

Whilst Joffrey was like a Bond villain (bit cartoonish) even though he was terrible he was very watchable. Ramsey is such a bastard that it's like watching a documentary about a serial killer.

Whilst I've been waiting for Team Hodor to reappear I'd completely forgot about the Iron Islands and had to go and read Wikipedia to remind myself who the fella on the bridge was.

[Cf]

The second fella on the bridge hadn't been introduced before I don't think. Could probably have done with at least a scene introducing him.

As good as the kennel scene was it wasn't actually necessary in a sense. As soon as Ramsay says follow me we know how that's going to end.

Glad they didn't drag out bringing Jon back.

As a GoT virgin I watched the first 2 episodes last night. Quite enjoyed it so some binge watching ahead.

Please avoid this thread then, it really is one of those shows where the big moments can get absolutely ruined if you are expecting them.

New guy on the bridge is a Major character, can turn whole story around !

If this is a 'book spoiler' would you kindly go away.
