I didn't have a problem with how they killed Stannis. Seemed like it was a depressing final scene just like his tenure on the show. Maybe the theme was along the lines of "all of this great sacrifice and you die in the snow as an afterthought without any great excitement".

That, and Drogon stole his special effects monies.

I'm not convinced Stannis is dead either.

Maybe Ramsey showed up and she hit him instead? Or maybe Sansa and Theon stumbled upon them after their jump from the wall (assuming they jumped before this scene happened? I can't exactly remember the order of events)? Or maybe she just cuts his arm or leg off and is going to let him bleed out.

It just seems odd that they show other much more definitive deaths, but cut out on his. Maybe they're just trying to deny the viewers the satisfaction of watching Stannis die?

Don't forget the wasted cgi money on the walk of shame. It isn't like she hasn't shown the goods before.

lol...no thanks...i prefer the CGI version.

her last topless scene was 2008. she hasn't done full frontal since 1994 when she was 21.

she is 42 now...i don't want to watch that for 5+ minutes thanks.

So did the Red Witch ever do anything with the "power" she got from burning Stannis' kid? She planning on using that to raise up zombie Jon Snow?

By burning Shireen, she instituted Global Warming.

This. She said that she could make the snow thaw so they could move forward.

THE EW.com article said that she was pregnant during the filming of the scene.

Apparently she was also pregnant during the filming of that scene. So a body double was a given.

Maybe Theon and Sansa jumped on top of Stannis and Brienne just killed them both!

If the timing was correct, Ramsay was still on battlefield when Brienne confronted Stannis. Sansa and Theon didn't jump until they saw that Ramsay was returning through the gates to Winterfell.

Ok thanks. I also don't watch the about the episode features, so I hadn't seen D&D supposedly say Stannis is in fact dead.

They didn't supposedly say it. They definitely said it. Stannis is dead. Let's move on.

Stannis is dead.

He was left dead to rights regardless of what Amazon Woman decided to do. If you will recall, as he was slouched up against the tree - he inspected his wounds and was already losing a lot of blood.

His story is over.

Stannis was dead before Brienne killed him. He lost everything.

All this talk of Stannis' fate reminds me of the debate after the finale of BB season 3.

Arya is ok. The others are scheming politicians whom I don't care for. Stannis and Jon were men.

Jorah I also like but he is doomed

Cougar said good characters, not likable ones.

Joffery was a "good" character.

Stannis used magic to kill his own brother. He cheated on his wife. He only won one battle of note. Never got the love for him. I like Tormund.

I also don't get how thousands and thousands of men and horses and their supplies leave in the night and the man doesn't wake up...or someone at least wakes him up and informs him...

Stay classy Stannis.
