Here's a scene I loved. Absolutely loved.

Agree totally. By far my favorite part of the episode.
 
Okay, but how did he tell Bran that he was making Bronn Lord of the Reach? You can't lie to the guy. So Bran in turn also thinks it's a great idea to make a thieving cutthroat Master of Coin and Lord of the most important region in Westeros, their breadbasket.

I think Bran is going to be a hands off type of king. He’s more of a roll his eyes in the back of his head and inhabit birds type of king than a make important decisions about the realm type of king.

I figure he’s going to leave a lot of the actual ruling to Tyrion, for better or worse.

That’s kind of a cool lineup of people on that small council- Davos, Brienne of Tarth, HOF Bronn, Tyrion.
 
Haven't been overly critical of this season as kept expecting them to pull off something special as hey have so often but the finale was really disappointing. Bran become king even though he doesn't care or want anything, then Sansa sates the North will not bend the knee even with a Stark as King?

Jon get released and Tyrion get no punishment and the unsullied are ok with that? A lot of holes. Kinda like Boardwalk Empire when the final season was terrible. I did kinda like that Jon went beyond the wall likely to be their King but apart from that it was poorly done. Plus that council meeting debating brothels shit was terrible.

Last season had episodes rated at 9.8 on imdb and this one went out on a 5/10 a shame on an otherwise excellent show.

That was a great callback to when Joffrey talked shit on him for not having any great feats listed under his name.

Very cool to see Brienne fill in the pages. Helped to make Jaime’s death seem a little less shitty/a bit less character degrading.
 
No

Bronn defies bad writing. Just like The Hound , people wanted to see him no matter what. Dude was a scene stealer. Hell i'd totally watch a Bronn exclusive spineoffs. He was the Saul Goodman of GOT
Bronn lord of bad quips

The Hound at least had a place in the story
 
yeah i dont think so, im gonna complain about this shit for years
I feel bad for any nerds who rewatch this series..

"Winter is coming"

More like Cheesy Garbage is coming.

Would have been a lot more meaningful if they didn't force their unnecessary hook up upon us.
 
Everyone thing you said is correct and I agree. I can't help but feel sorrow and pity for the former Lord Commander and King. He really was an amazing character and his biggest weakness was he lacked the ethically flexibility and dishonour to not play the Game of Thrones which put him in his current position and contributed to Dany's descent into madness. I truly hope this isn't the last we see of him and this story is revisited in a new mini-series or movie at some point down the road.
Nontheless he still adapted better than Ned did even though the parallels of the arcs are there.
