Literally it comes down to that fact that THAT WAS NOT THE GAME OF THRONES I KNOW AND LOVE.

This is a series where anything can happen, good doesn't always beat evil. It doesn't spell things out. When Melissandra told Arya she could kill things with blue eyes and Arya ran out you knew EXACTLY what was happening.

They threw a way a few 2nd and 3rd tier characters to say they killed people off, but they pushed every single important character to the brink and they all lived. Like Jamie and Brienne are against a wall fighting off the undead for the entire episode and make it, fucking Sam is on the group and I presume his dumbass is still alive... they keep the hound alive for the clegane bowl I guess... Dany is surrounded by the undead and they fight off that whole fucking heard? Cmon now... and then Jon yells at the ice dragon and conveniently that's when Arya kills the night king.

Instead you get huge drawn out deaths for people like Beric and Jorah. Theon is a pretty big death but let's not pretend like he's all that important to the plot anymore.

Now they can go kill Cersei (or lock her up cause god knows they hate killing people off now), and sing kum ba yah.

Episode was beautiful. Probably the best episode in a visual sense.

And that’s all I have to say that’s positive.

Yes. TPTWP meant nothing I guess.

Just Arya somehow getting past a circle of white walkers without making a sound or alerting anyone and stabs him to death.



Insert “what the fuck” meme.

Yeah I try to ignore the fact that 90% of the show is in the dark and there are fast cuts so it's almost impossible to see what's going on.
