This will be seen by many as the "jump the shark" episode. Part of GoT appeal is that its far more based in "reality" than other fantasy shows...I think there was a lot of eye rolling going on nationwide last night at the end of the episode.

I have read all the books and I realize this show has TONS of fantasy/magic elements, but resurrecting Jon Snow and the magic animating the white walkers seem like 2 different animals all together. I think the writers thought the entire LSH angle was goofy so they decided to nix it - now i feel like Jon and LSH could reunite at some point.

Overall A+, still one of the best shows around
they jumped the shark with the red wedding, people just didn't realize it at the time. same thing with the books tbh. as for ghost and jon, thats exactly where my head was. i was watching the breathing. i really would have respected them more if the rezz of Jon had been paid for by the life of Ghost, or Mel, or hell, even Davos. Part of the reason we didnt get LSH, or Coldhands, or any other rezzed/undead nerds is because it would cheapen deaths and would get viewers to start expecting it. it takes the sting out of the death.

but for anyone that really didnt believe Mel would rezz Jon... wtf are you smoking? we've literally been saying it for 5 years, and then a few years ago the HBO makes a change to purposely show viewers that Mel & Thoros meet and she is made aware of the fact that the red god / lord of light has the ability to rezz people.

i got distracted by ToV trains and forgot what else i was gonna write [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
