The episode felt like a movie and the whole sequence in the Throne room was the quintessence of Game of Thrones. Also, Paddy deserves at least an Emmy nomination.

Greatest TV episode in a long time. Greatest scene in a long time. Congrats director Geeta Vasant Patel & writer Eileen Shim. Congrats to the magnificent cast. Congrats to HBO for sticking with the GRRM universe after D&D all but killed it. Astonishingly good TV. If you haven't seen it andGreatest TV episode in a long time. Greatest scene in a long time. Congrats director Geeta Vasant Patel & writer Eileen Shim. Congrats to the magnificent cast. Congrats to HBO for sticking with the GRRM universe after D&D all but killed it. Astonishingly good TV.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This series exceeded all my expectations. It is the best. Rather, in relation to what I prefer about Game of Thrones, the CGI should be improved a little because in some scenes there are errors. Either in terms of story, script, application, music, and costumes. Literally, even Game of Thrones cannot appreciate this quality.… Expand

The most wonderful episode of the season. Paddy Considine should get an Emmy award for creating such a wonderful character.

It’s obvious these reviews praising HBO and how great this show are... are just paid trolls. This show as a whole and this episode are just awful. Nothing except woke garbage. When the show runners themselves, yes, the show runners, say how they hate Trump and love Hilary... says it all.It’s obvious these reviews praising HBO and how great this show are... are just paid trolls.
