[DaveShoelace]

Liking little finger and knights King

[Horneris]

Worst ep of the series

[Sheriff Fatman]

Worst ep of the series

Another scene setter, but probably the least dramatic one of the entire series.

Somewhat disappointing to see two more significant deaths (Blackfish and the waif) take place off-camera too.  Arya's storyline seems to be particularly stretching credibility, in that she's gone from pretty much mortally wounded to overcoming an opponent she's been unable to get the better of in the space of what appears to be a couple of days.

Highlights were another Mountain entry in the gruesome deaths column and the return of Beric and Thoros to the series (intrigued as to where that particular arc is heading, given that it's very different from the books).

[Horneris]

Just couldn't believe after all the effort of setting the siege scene it was a complete non event and a non believeable one at that.

The Blackfishs men who had captured the castle with him just abandoning him at the drop of the hat because Edmure is back (and only one man spoke at that) seems bizarre, and the Blackfish's decision to commit suicide just to write him out of the show was annoying too, and as you said didn't even get to see it.

And yeah, would've liked to see what Arya could do and how she could kill that annoying girl.

Just didn't really enjoy it. Although the trailer for next weeks looks superb as expected given the episode title.

Do we think blackfish is really dead? Could be a trap for Ser Jaime?  If he is then it was weak. Would have loved to have seen waif have her eyes popped out by Arya.

My favourite part was when the girl was chasing Arya she was running like a Terminator. Then as soon as Arya got hurt it became the slow stalk walk from a horror movie - amused me anyway

[DaveShoelace]

Too many people are having ambiguous deaths in this show where we don't see the moment they pop their clogs, becoming a bit of a problem because GOT used to be the show where anyone could die,  now it's the show where anyone can return from the dead.

next week looks epic

apparently its the longest and most bloody battle in the six seasons

[cambridgealex]

Arya's storyline since she left the Hound has been awfully dull and the ending was so predictable. I mean, after like 3 seasons of build up, she was never just gonna die was she. And to not even show how she finally got the better of the Waif after a whole season of failing (whilst being severely injured) was very disappointing and yeh, a bit unbelievable.

Feel like there's so many characters that can't be killed off now - the storylines are becoming less and less shocking and it's now more about the big battles at the end of the season and the episodes in between are a bit pointless because you know Dany/Snow/Jamie/Bran/Sansa etc aren't going to die.

Hugely looking forward to next weeks though!

But we know how Arya got the better of the Waif - she put out the candle and fought in the dark, which she'd become expert at when fighting the Waif when she was blind.

That's what I was thinking.

What more do people expect? Seems like everybody wants epic battle scenes and CGI dragons flying around every episode but they have to realise this is a TV program not a film and it doesn't generate the revenue for that.

I'd imagine 80% of the people who moan about the bits we don't get to see such as the no doubt epic Blackfish fight to the death against multiple assailants don't even pay to watch the show. Maybe if it got more than 10 million viewers they could turn every episode in to the Lord of the Rings smashing masterpiece that the fans desire.
