Theme so far of episode one: Reunions.

Loving every minute so far.

Nobody makes Sam cry

Oh ***** Sam dropping the bomb.

Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhh that ending. The one reunion I really wanted to see.

Jesus the kid....

Damn you! I wanted to see their conversation. ******* you GOT!

Notice the whole aunt thing wasn't a big deal

THAT PROMO THOUGH

It's amazing how much that episode swung the momentum in Jon's direction. We already knew about Jon's claim, but with the North being pissed about Dany and Sam's argument about what Jon is willing to sacrifice vs. what Dany would do...

A little on the 'meh' side for me but I understand the need to reconnect...things...

I'm really starting to dislike Sansa's arrogance now

She's always been the worst. We were just rooting for her while she was being tortured by Joffrey and then Ramsey. They'd have a lot more men to fight the Night King with if she had told Jon about the Knights of the Vale.

Sansa will be fun again when Podrag bangs her

Damn.... Jamie and Bran. I've actually never seen Jamie so scared.... of a cripple. lol.


The reveal to Jon could have been handled better I suppose - I expected something more formal with Bran I guess - but Sam doing it while basically pissed off at Dany and basically saying Jon/Aegon would make a better ruler was interesting. It has more meaning then we even expected with the drama of the northmen not taking to Dany.


Only negative really for me was: Sorry as fun as the dragon riding was - a. it was for nothing really and b. it played out like a soap opera love thing with the cheesy "keep your queen warm" and posed kiss with scenic backdrop. blech.

Overall great setup episode - so many reunions and most did not go like I would expect exactly yet they were pretty nearly perfect.

Dragons watch people have sex just like dogs.

That scene of Drogon staring down John is badass

Also, Dany was super casual about him just hopping on to Rhaegal. That's a HUGE deal.

bet that made his sword go limp....very intimidating

True. And like Sam said. Jon goes out of his way to protect everyone. Dany's goal has always been getting the Throne and she always puts that first

Jamie didn't look scared to me, it looked more like a man being confronted directly with the horrible things he used to do. He has been transforming himself into an honorable person, or wants to, so this will be interesting.

As far as the dragon riding, I felt like it was a nice nod to Jon and Ygritte, and giving us a reason for Jon to be able to ride the dragon later without it just being random.

"He's got blue eyes!"

"I've always had blue eyes!"

I love Tormund
