    The point was to let the audience experience Tyrion’s reaction to finding his dead siblings.

    Nice to see Bronn.

    He has been stealing scenes for years.

    Also to prove that they were really dead, not just mostly dead.

    They ended it better than I feared they would. A little too pat, a little too all things in their correct places... but given how pissed off I've been about the writing of this season in general, they did all right.

    That was a very good scene.

    A Lannister always pays his debts. He’s still paying his.

    I knew what happened two weeks ago (since the leaks on r/freefolk were correct). I was fine with the ending.

    I enjoyed Bran not having a part in the closing scenes because no one gives a shit about him even though he’s king.

    Great line on Twitter: " Greyworm turned out to be a big dick for a guy who doesn't have one."

    I had been wondering if we'd see him again. That ending makes sense for the character.

    One thing I'd never heard until earlier today was that Jerome Flynn once dated Lena Headley before either was on the show. It ended badly enough that both of them had it in their contracts that they were never to even be in the same room, much less the same scene.

    Bran was an uninspiring character who is an uninspiring choice as king. Blecch.

    Who has a better story than the boy who fell off a high tower, nearly died but survived? How about the motherfucker who actually died, came back to life, rode a motherfucking dragon, inspired thousands to follow him into battle against the living dead, and then killed the queen who torched an entire motherfucking city full of motherfucking women and children?
