Wow....I felt like a pro wrestling fan yelling out "Holy Sh!t" while watching his favorite star fly off the turnbuckle. Tonight's episode had more than a few moments like that.

Great episode with many epic moments.
But at the same time... So many "well that doesn't make any sense" instances, especially when it comes to time. That raven to Dany must have hitched a ride on a jet plane.

Amazing episode. So many knots tied up just with the Jon Squad walking towards their goal. Kissed by fire, long claw, Gendry's leeches.
Sansa discovers Arya is a faceless man and a scary one at that.
The attack of the undead bear, which ultimately kills Theros.
The hound throws a damn rock, bringing all hell upon the party.
Danny saves the day but the Knights King gets his flying mount.
Best episode ever.

My feelings exactly. Entertaining, but they continue to insult their audience, which is frustrating.
I am really torn about it. At this point they are making riveting TV. But they are sacrificing a lot in credible plot and dialogue. I almost feel cheated they get to kill a dragon, and toy with these characters who we have so much invested into, I do anyway.
I guess they aren't forcing you to continue watching. They gave themselves an out by not revealing how long they were surrounded
I agree. I'm very torn on the episode. It definitely furthered the plot, and there were some great moments. Like, pretty much everything that The Hound or Tormund says is gold. They are a good matchup, I hope to see them together again.
However, Gendry must be better than the Boston Marathoners to make that distance, get a ravens across the country to Dany, her ride it back, and save the day(-ish) all in the amount of time the other dudes were sitting on a hill somehow not freezing to death. I totally understand suspending disbelief - but in the early parts of the series, it was a big deal that ravens were slow. Have they yet explained how Benjen became Coldhands and is only part wight or not wight or... whatever? And the dragon wight thing was coming from a mile away - it's definitely a game-changer, but interesting. And why the hell didn't Dany put on a freaking coat before she left?
I wouldn't consider some fan service in a show that was completely devoid of it for years to be overly insulting.
I think part of the reason it's so bothersome is that Martin is so incredibly particular about details and keeping this fantasy sort of... realistic, I guess. He has backstories for everything, even things that don't need backstories. The first several seasons of the show followed that thorough consistency.
It's still some of the best TV out there, and I know that they're reaching the end and probably panicking - it's just detracting a bit.
I understand how ridiculous it is for for people on horseback, a ship or a raven to travel as far and as fast as they do but what would you people complaining suggest? Season 7 episode 5 - 8 horseback travel and a raven flies to dany.
Fashion statement with her slim white fur.
Plus I assume Drogon is hot flashing, as he/she is a fire breathing dragon.

They should have subtitled this entire season: Game of Thrones Season 7: Deus Ex Machina
Still a very enjoyable show, but I wish they would have done better.

Tough to make all the travel realistic when there's only 7 episodes left. This season easily could've been 3-4 episodes of travel, but then not nearly as many plot points would have been covered. Just difficult with the final 2 seasons being shorter
Bump for the timeline grumps.
Hated when direwolves got killed. Hated watching one of the dragons die.
I loved the episode. And I have no problem with the time travel stuff (in fact if it wasn't for the complaining I wouldn't have even thought about it), they have a lot to cover in few episodes so I would rather have them fill episodes with needed scenes and not wasting time as someone travels.
Speaking of...where the 'eff is Ghost this season?
I'm playing the Devil's Advocate here, so just hear me out....we really don't know how far past the Wall/Eastwatch they got. It's possible they might have gotten only a few miles north before they found themselves in that spot of trouble. With the blizzard conditions it was hard to get a good feel for it. Again, just playing the advocate here.
When is Littlefinger donna die? I hope soon. I hate that bastard.
