Not sure how I feel about Arya being the one to kill the night king
Is that really the end of the dead

Epic. Feels obvious now looking back, that the army of dead had to be defeated at winterfell (how could you there be survivors from both parties that both make their way down to kings landing?) And a 3 way battle between the dead, cersei and everyone else just wouldn't work would it? But I never saw that coming.
It needed a big ending otherwise you'd be left feeling a little disappointed as they killed off some predictable fringe characters like Ed, Beric and Lyanna M but it was done so damn well - loved it.
I was getting so frustrated with Bran though - do something ffs! Was expecting him to warg into Vyserion and save everyone - or at least use his powers for something! But he just sat there. What was the use of him warging into the ravens? Seems like he was just browsing the battle for his own interest!
Now that the Night King is dead, will Bran still have a big part to play?
So presumably there's very little of the unsullied and dothraki left, so it's all the surviving main characters plus two dragons vs Cersei, the iron fleet and the golden company. Can't wait! And still all the big payoffs to come like Clegane bowl, Jamie/Tyrion/Cersei, Arya/Sansa/Cersei etc etc. What a show.

Only 1 dragon left. Two of them died yesterday (1 good, 1 already dead)

Started off watching it in the lounge at lunch time. Just moved house and have no curtains.
Its very dark so ended up watching it sat on the floor in the bathroom, the only room in the house that I can make pitch black!
It's 10/10 tv of course. I must be the dream audience member as completely forgot Arya running off so when she pops back up at the end, a noise came out my mouth that I don't think I have ever made before.
I also found Sansa and Tyrion hiding in the crypt so moving. Am I the only one that thought they were about to stab themselves?

The most epic piece of TV/Film for me was always the long shoot out in Heat. The noise was incredible and stays with me even now.
That episode just blew it away. I lost track of how many times I paused it to catch my breath and even giggle a couple of times at how bloody good it was.
Some things just didnt add up. The dragonglass should have been more effective and just cut them down, but some dead seemed to keep fighting and some exploded. Arya even stabbed one in the chin and it just bled out. Complete lack of continuity really, but all abso fine.
Epic TV and Im half way through watching it again in the same day, not something I ever recalled doing before.
Exhausted, but satisfied!

Don't think the good one died yesterday. 95% sure.

I don't want to be contrary, I love GOT but for me that was the worst episode ever. Just darkness and noise.
Might as well have watched it on the wireless.

The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k. “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi. Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.

Music was good and a few good set scenes like ze vitevalkers strolling in like the magnificent 7, Tyrion/Sansa, Hound/Arya, Dany/Sir Friendzone, nice to see Melisandre but feel she should have whipped them out one last time for old times sake. Otherwise predictable hogwash of course. John Snow remaining the world's worst tactician was a lot of fun to me. Obvs still committed to seeing it through.

Didn’t have a problem with brightness. But I did stay up for it so was watching it in pitch black.
Arya getting the kill was very satisfying although did feel somewhat anti climactic. But I think it was always going to be to a point.
Still overall v v good.

Enjoyed it but the first 30 mins were basically in darkness wtf? Seems like a cop out to avoid showing a high quality detailed scrap....

Weren't the ones who exploded the Targeryan White Walkers rather than just the dead normies? As for the bleeding I thought the same but I guess dead people still have blood up to a point? Was this before or after the night king raised the dead? If it was a fresh corpse then its fine.

Before he rose them. Others were crumbling when hit with DG, some weren't.
As said a small point that didn't detract from the enjoyment.
Worst episode ever because it was a little dark.......I've told you a million times not to exaggerate Tom.......
