Too late to the party, but it's a 8 from me.
+++ If we forget that the reasoning for the wight hunt is silly, it's a super thrilling plot line and it has some really solid character interactions. The action, visuals and the acting was just phenomenal. ++ A MOTHERFUCKING ICE DRAGON + BERIC FOR KING + Jon and Dany's lovely little chat. (Jon calling her Dany was a bit cringey, but oh well) Well acted though! Also gonna squeeze this here, but Dany has been brilliant this season, controversial, ruthless, but yet kind in some stages. She's complex and that's the way I like my characters. Jon and Tyrion are a bit bland at the moment. +/- Tyrion the Saint again in action. Now he's the founder of democracy and human rights. - The slight overuse of deus ex machina. Predictable and the slowmo battle desperation from Stannis's charge, Blackwater, Battle of the Bastards etc. --- Stark "civil war". Blah, blah, we need this to make the Starks work together, but it feels like such a waste of time. ----- The pacing. Westeros must be the size of the Netherlands for this to make sense.

I'd change the rating but it's only down by like 0.5 so I'll just round up

If such a thread does arise, would you mind terribly if I crashed the party? I'm always in the mood to revel in the Lightning Lord's awesomeness for a few minutes. Especially after his performance in this episode.

I think you, as the longest serving Beric fan on the board, should have the honor of creating such a glorious thread.

Apparently, I am the only person in my college who didn't absolutely loathe this episode It's funny how oddly divided this episode is amongst different crowds. Mainstream media sites are fairly critical of it but most average fans ate it up and loved it a lot. Jon/Daenerys shippers are in heaven, Jonsa fans are salty and in denial, and a lot of Arya fans are angry. I think at least everyone agreed the actual battle at the rock in the lake was phenomenal as were the special effects and all of the actors. Biggest complaints seemed to be transition of the scenes back and forth to Winterfell, the speed at which the characters got places (you'd think people would give up on this complaint) and how overly predictable it all was. None of that bothered me and other than some early on upset that Arya's motives were out of character in how she acted towards Sansa (turns out it wasn't) I loved the episode a lot.

I haven't heard of anyone who loathes it, only that there were some silly things that bothered them. But that happens every season. As I said in another thread my brother said it was his favourite episode of all time, so really it's hard to pin down a general reaction.
There's definitely a lot riding on the finale, though, with a shortened season.
