Wins:
- Cersei’s leather top
- Snow. Hard, blowing snow. When Sandor buries the family. Repentance!
- Wun Wun is a wight!
- Arya’s eyebrows are still the best!
- Squirrel on a stick — campfire gourmet!
- Dany’s lone walk across the beach — I kept expecting Gendry to pop up, but other than that, it was a great moment.
- Brienne, as always, in any scene, kills.
Fails:
- Knowing Sam’s poop/slop-like-poop scene was coming (from perusing last night’s Twitter feeds), I avoided looking at the screen just at this moment.
- Euron rigged up with clothes more be-fitting a rock star than a warrior. He’s too pretty-looking.
- GoT loves profanity but for some reason last night’s seemed (and I am including Cersei’s cold-blooded speech which seemed strangely empty, vacuous, BLANK, even with her use of the “c” word) pretty limp. Or perhaps I was just in a bad mood because I had watched vid of Gendry x Arya: “Pull your cock out and take a piss” and that, methinks, is an excellent use of another “c” word.
Meh:
- Ed Sheeran needs a spray tan. Other than that, his moment with Arya was the sweetest of the episode.
- Podric as the new Gendry: I’ll take what I can get.
Stay tuned, dear blog readers. Stay tuned.
