Said it before, Red God resurrection for Jon is bad captain obvious writing (I don't care if the Red God is associated with the Targaeryans (sp don't care) and its Jon Targaryens true religion, that doesn't save this at all for me). Why doesn't it work for me on the show is because of "LOOK LOL RED PRIEST MAGIC" all 6 seasons, episode after episode, over and over, scene after scene. Its just dumb ass writing (show-wise). Book-wise however, I don't have any beef with it at all because there is no red magic saturation and Red Priest story force-feeding going on.
but it certainly seems we are heading down that road.
Were about 1 or 2 episodes away from jumping the shark. That opening episode placed us on the beach, were searching for sharks now. Or did we already jump it with the Dornish Master Plan?

I started a S5 re-watch a month or so ago, and may the Olde Gods be my witness, I could not finish. I resolved that i would not allow Dorne to ruin S6. Couldn't simply ignore Dorne in ep1, but so far, I'm ok. In the books, I do think Obara and Tyene could hose a lot of things up for Doran, so that didn't exactly come out of nowhere for me.
Otherwise, we are of like minds. On the subject of storytelling, what did you think of:
>> Davos motivation for securing Jon's body. Was that because he saw the Traitor sign and sensed trouble? I get why moving/guarding Jon's body is important, but I didn't get why Davos would. BTW, Davos can read. RIP Shireen.
>> Why was Davos staring at Jon's crime scene after body removed? That seemed important.
