Dany seemed more broken up about Jon then she was about a dragon she called her child. That just felt off. When they panned and showed everyone after Viscerion fell, Jorah and Tormund looked more shaken up than her.
I'm sure it was meant to be another forced parallel with Jon but it didn't work for me.
Maybe it'll work better in a clear version on my TV after I've had a half bottle of wine.

Maybe it'll work better in a clear version on my TV after I've had a half bottle of wine. Not everyone responds to grief with screaming and crying. Dany to me was in shock. She looked like she couldn't believe it was happening. It was so quick, I don't think it fully hit her until she was alone with Jon. When he wakes up, she finally breaks down. Before then, she's holding it together as best as she can, but you can tell she is just numb. Her voice is soft after rescuing everyone, her face more vulnerable than she usually shows others. I can remember when I lost a pet who I had raised from his birth, I was calm. It didn't mean I didn't love him, but the feeling was so intense, I was afraid to let it really out. I thought I would break if I did. I understood Dany's response. You just are so afraid of the intensity of that feeling.

Maybe it'll work better in a clear version on my TV after I've had a half bottle of wine. I was actually expecting it to be worse considering some had mentioned it was noticeable how she didn't react. I think she was going to react... but the reality of the Night King about to throw another spear at Drogon hit her and she just went into emergency survival mode. At least that's the excuse I'm going to make for it. She did mourn him later after the emergency was over so I'm satisfied she did love Viserion. But as we have discussed in the past, Daenerys rarely had interactions with Viserion and Rhaegal and it took me a loooong time to get straight with the fact she had locked them away in the first place. I can still remember well my outrage at that.

Also, I don't know if this has been mentioned but there was a fairly significant line in there from Tormund while talking to Jon about how many thousands of people had to die for Mance Rayder's pride. I was shocked by that since Tormund was always one of the biggest "we do not kneel" supporters. I think this is probably what changed Jon's mind and helped him make the decision he already wanted to make about Daenerys.

I haven't watched the whole scene yet but I expect the shrieks from Drogon and Rhaegal to get to me even if Dany doesn't fully react immediately. Poor Rhaegal. Drogon's obviously mom's favorite, and now he doesn't even have his bro he liked to hang with anymore. I wonder if Jon will end up making a connection with him and become his rider on S8...

I get shock but Emilia is capable of looking heartbroken. I can't believe they didn't let her show that again in that moment.

This face to me is heartbreaking. It seems like she can't even breathe. She's in shock, she's numb, but she's so close to breaking. It's very subtle, which is something Emilia does well.

Jorah is so worried about her. I can't praise Iain Glen enough. As far as Ser Jorah in the books I was somewhere in between indifferent and thinking he was a creep, but he's honestly one of my favorite characters on the show. To me he's the single best improvement of a show over book character.

Maisie did the shocked/sad face really well when she saw Robb after the Red Wedding. This just doesn't hit me like that did. It's Jorah who has the emotions in that scene.

wish they hadn't put the Winterfell last scene in there where they did, it felt out of place considering the dire circumstances of everything else happening at the same time and made it harder to watch and try to understand when my heart was hammering and wanting to get back to see how the rest played out at Eastwatch. I felt the exact same way about this. The editing wasn't ideal and it made it feel super choppy. All in all though - I actually loved this episode. The amount of raw emotion and complexity packed into this along with the intense WW fight - I thought it was just phenomenal. I didn't like the Arya/Sansa scene - but I think we're supposed to not like it. It's supposed to make all of us very uncomfortable and question things....create enough doubt that Arya may have lost her mind and then whip us around again when the two of them united against LF. I did love the way Jon said "Dany." When I imagined that scene in my head, I wasn't sure I was going to like him calling her that. But it gave me chills both times he said it. It's unfortunate he's probably not going to call her that again....there was so much affection in it - something both those characters are in dire need of. Sigh. Has E7 leaked yet because now I REALLY have no more patience.....lol

So this guys speculation is wrong, but he does have an interesting tidbit. He went on a GoT tour in Dubrovnik, and they said they filmed with snow for season 7. So I guess that's Jaime leaving.
Maybe Al can help me out. Do we know of a scene being filmed with Nicolaj? Lads scripts have him riding out of a snowy KL.

Oh - and also - "winge-ing" is now officially added to my vocabulary. I'm going to use it at least once a day.
