Fair point. I think the episode was way too packed in general, it's almost like an 8th episode was needed. I'm glad the two after this will at least allow storylines to breathe with their run times and that the fact that there are fewer storylines to balance. Yeah, an 8th episode was sorely needed, I think. But at least now we only have 2 or 3 storylines going forward. The flow will certainly improve. I'm not sure that this was really a material for 2 episodes. I think this episode should just be longer for 10-15 minutes.

Also I think the return of Gendry, despite what you guys thought of the episode, brought back some hope for @fatherofdragons , Diablotion , stannisforking299al , day dreamer because I think House Baratheon (assuming Gendry would be legitimized) coming back into the story brings the series full circle a bit since they were one of the great houses we started with. Also, why else keep the stag in the title sequence. Al, you are so precious - always concerned about someone else's hype. Al is very hype sensitive. Everyone deserves basking in the hype they love without others crushing their bubble of hypeness!

Some things i generally like: -Gendry! We were so excited to see Gentry is finally back and he has change so much since the last time we saw him. I know some people are complaining about the sudden change of character, but i get that it's due to how long we haven't seen him and Gndry might have already accepted his identity as a Baratheon bastard very confidently (possibly cuz Gentry has always been seeking his own identity) -Jorah's scene with Dany. The chemistry between Jorah and Dany is very emotional (not surprisely my friend shipped them lol) -The last scene with Jon's men and the Brotherhood. The interactions between them felt very invested and real and i loved the execution of it.
Some things i don't like: -Arya is a dumbass in this episode -the way they reveal the annulment part felt so unnecessary and rush. -Dany's scene with the Tarlys and Davos with the Lannister guards felt contrive
So i'm giving it a 7.

Using a rating system for a show is something unique to GoT for me. I've never done it watching anything else. I know if I had while watching The Sopranos or The Wire I would have been giving away 10's like candy. I honestly think GoT is up there with the all time greats so I'm fine with giving it such high ratings a lot of the time. Even when a particular storyline or two doesn't go exactly the way I would have preferred. Or stuff I wanted to see was omitted. The Night Lands is probably the lowest I ever went at a 6 or 7, which for this show is really bad. Personally I could never go below 5 on a show with this kind of production value, acting, music, etc. But to each their own ofc.

After two rewatches, I'm going to stand with my 8 out of 10.
While it's not a great episode, it moves us into the final two with minimal breakdown. Hubby called foul on Bronn dragging Jamie's ass down the river and out of the water with all the 'armor' Jamie had one, but did agree it could be done.
I'm ready for the hunt.

The only episodes I would call straight up 10's 1) Winter is Coming 2) Baelor 3) Fire and Blood 4) Blackwater 5) And Now His Watch Has Ended 6) Kissed by Fire 7) The Rains of Castamere 8) The Lion and the Rose 9) The Watchers on the Wall 10) The Door 11) Battle of the Bastards 12) The Winds of Winter. I've lost count of how many 9's and 8's I've given out but those ones for sure are my 10's. My list of 10's is almost exactly as yours. The only difference is that I would left out Winter is Coming (I rate it as a 9), and I would add Two Swords, Hardhome and The Spoils of War.

And I don't think Joe Dempsie can actually grow a full dignified beard, only a goatee.

Al, you are so precious - always concerned about someone else's hype. Al is very hype sensitive. Everyone deserves basking in the hype they love without others crushing their bubble of hypeness! I disagree, bubbles are meant to be burst. In fact they need to be popped. Unrestrained hyping will not be rewarded. I will destroy it unless I approve. Clegane Bowl? seasons 4, 5, 6, and 7. It's clearly season 8, premature hype, there is no excuse for it. The hound has to kill him with fire while on team Dany/Jon. Brings the shit full circle to when the hound got burned as a child and touches on the Frankenstein theme. Aegon? No, just no, a lie, a disgusting filthy lie, propaganda that needed to be crushed. Talkin bout King FAegon, the true Dragon. Fool wasn't no dragon, table flippin, blue haired, phony ass little punk was more like a turtle. Walkin around with his blue hair I'm the dragon, I'm the dragon, I got blue hair like blue rose. Trying to come off like he is Dany or Jon? Sit your ass down in the corner Turtle. Gendry? Gendry was approved based on factual evidence and went through the proper hype channels. Jon vs. Sansa. Fake news. Jonsa? Jonsa? What the fuck is a Jonsa? Oh no, oh no, oh no. I said it before and I'll say it again! I said you been had, you been hoodwinked, lied too, bamboozled, led astray, run amuck! We didn't land on Casterly Rock, Casterly Rock landed on us! Cant be runing around half cocked hyping everything in sight like a 13 year old that just saw his first porno . Gettin people all hyped up for what? To let them down, children crying in the streets, death and pain. And Envie and Al you should know better than to encourage random hyping. Have you forgotten Stannis? Have you? Know your roles, and control your hype. I can still remember June 7th - 14th 2015, the silence of the Stans. The greatest fan hype machine in Westeros suddenly came to a screeching halt. Or should I say screaming halt, like a child crying out for her father and mother. These next topics are hype approved. Jon and Dany hook up, hype approved. Arya and Gendry reunion, hype approved. Queen bowl? Hype approved for season 8 only Clegane bowl? Hype approved season 8 only. Jaime and Brie? Hype approved, season 8 only Any premature hyping will result in no punishment as I have no way of punishing anyone. Any unapproved hyping may result in epic failure. Remember Stannis, remember FAegon, Remember Robb and the red wedding, remember Rico Suave people. Hyping is a dangerous recreational drug that can be addictive. As adults you are expected to show restrained hyping? No it doesn't make sense, but yes you will do it, unless you don't want too. Yes I had nothing better to than to write a hyped up anti hype post and if you actually made it this far Kudos to you :wave:

*inserts Blackfish dissapointed gif* Strange to see such low score for 7x05 when the rest of the world seemed to love it and praised it overall. Having fewer voters means it takes less disgruntled critics to ruin the turtle soup.
