So... Having main characters die horribly is cool and adds to the tension and empathy and overall immersion, but when you start to loose count on how many have died in one single episode...

Well - having fallen off for a while, I resumed where I had left off. Watched eps 5, 6 and 7 back to back. I like the way it's gathering pace.

I finally saw the season finale and while somewhat gratified by Cersei's comeuppance I was left feeling a) This show will still be going on when my grandchildren are in high school and no closer to any resolution, and b) it's not so much a finale as five new story lines.
I may wait until the very absolute last episode ever and then power disk through them all. I'm not good with suspense.

I don't think that was as much comeuppance as it was revenge fuel.

No no no. Two words, Beric Dondarrion.

I think this line's mostly filler.

It might have been possible that she would learn some humility - if she hadn't been immediately given an undead giant. Any bit of her that wasn't already plotting revenge would have been after that.

Undead. That explains the silence and the bulging eyes with blue lids. My first thought was, "Aren't all the Cleganes dead?"

Zombies. It's a slippery slope to extra-terrestrials. Should we expect a visit from The Doctor?

The rebirth of the dragons means Thread is going to fall soon?
