It was a bit odd. Other than that, a good start to the season. Only six episodes left. I imagine it's going to get into high gear rather quickly.

Well yea then 7 more next year.
I dug the table setting, excited to see what euron brings back, there are a couple different theories out there. He looked awful though, such an old guy rock star vibe from him from the skinny black jeans to the facial hair.
Hound is always good... But he's def going in the wrong direction. Clegane bowl must happen next season I guess.

Hopefully it's 7 more next year. Rumor was it might not be until 2019.

It was supposed to be only six episodes for the final season (13 total between the two), but there was that recent report that they're pondering doing all of them feature length, like they're doing with the Season 7 finale. So it would kinda bring it back up to the other seasons in terms of length. I'd rather them just put out quality final episodes than to pad them out, though. We'll see.

I think that is one of the safest bets in the whole series. Neat how they showed it in the show though.

I find theories just as spoilerific if true. Should I avoid reading it?

They really wanted us to dislike the sand snakes, making them insult Tyrion in front of the audience like that.
Wondering what happens to little finger in the next few eps.

So, thoughts on what Daenerys thinks/says when she finds out that Jon Snow is technically speaking the rightful heir to the throne? It seems like it's heavily building up to that. So much talk about how Jon didn't choose to be king of the north, that he was appointed, and that he has no real birthright or claim to be so.

Aaand we're back. That was streets ahead of the first two episodes.
Awesome from start to finish.

The ending scene was perfect for that character. Legend.

Depends, I have zero idea how they plan to prove it given that there are no DNA tests and Bran's vision isn't exactly legally binding. |

I guess it's possible any revelation to anyone outside of Jon Snow might not even come until next season.

He's still alive, though has only been seen in The Tower of Joy flashbacks. As for excuse to go to his castle, it'll be Jon raising more troops or something. Although I think the Bolton's took that castle, the crannogmen are known for being able to maneuver the swamps around the castle. |

There will still have to be proof of his parents' marriage for his claim to be legitimate.
Unlikely there'll be any, unless sam chances upon it.

I would think even Jon Snow will need some kind of proof. I'm not sure how even Jon could believe Bran outside of just taking him on faith and trust. As to whom will be told, that's what I'm wondering for this season. Will it be revealed to anyone other than Jon Snow? I could picture Bran revealing what he saw to Jon, but maybe only him for the time being. Not even Sansa. |

"We all enjoy what we're good at."
"I don't."
This is what I came here for.

The new ep has leaked.
Sweet holy christ on a bike was my initial reaction.
Having slept on it, I can confirm that that reaction still stands.
