The show is in such a haste to move the story forward now, it becomes painfully apparent how much fucking time was lost on pointless arcs and characters since it started.
Spoiler:
Characters die off-screen, ships materialize out of thin air in harbours, characters teleport to make a dramatic entrances and arcs get resolved in most ridiculous and unbelievable ways, just so that they're finally over
Oh well. At least "a girl" is coming home now. Jaquen did indeed look like he got exactly what he wanted.
Some stupid stuff, some fillers and some needless crap. Yet I'm happy as it seems as we have crossed off all the stuff that was stopping progress of GoT! I have high hopes for the last episodes and especially for Season 7.

Yep, this and last season are sadly full of some bullshit. .(
This episode:
- The head ripping by The Mountain: Very nice.
- That joke scene:
- The sudden appearance by the dragon queen in the right moment:
- Aryas storyline just makes me too.
Enthoo Evolv ATX TG // Asus Prime x370 // Ryzen 1700 // Gainward GTX 1080 // 16GB DDR4-3200
Stabbed few times in stomach and then:
- eating hot soup
- running like fckin Usain Bolt(when I got bruised ribs I can't barely move for two weeks...).
The Waif chasing Arya "Daedric Plot Armor" Stark through the city like she's the killer in a slasher movie then dying off-screen
The Riverrun siege being resolved in the most ridiculous way possible and Blackfish dying off-screen
Another pointless and poorly written scene with Tyrion, Grey Worm and Missandei that lasts way too long
Pretty much this.
Haha yeah, indeed. I knew that this season would have inevitably brought more cringe and many-faced pears, but the writing team is surpassing the expectations. Normally I wouldn't care, but since it's GoT this really stands out and proves that the previous season wasn't just a fluke...but the beginning of the end.
The show is still capable of providing great moments of course (with the very few cool characters left), but they're rare, and the magic was lost-> by acquiring another kind of magic, to "fix" and try to explain the obvious holes where there's no logic at all.
After all the bitching, it's still one of the best shows on TV.
That's why the uproar is so rampant in the first place. If this was a cheap show nobody would have cared (me included), but we're talking about GoT and when you see such lazy writing you shake your fist, "dammit, it could be so much more than this".
After all the bitching, it's still one of the best shows on TV.
it still is very good, but just compare any random piece of dialogue from s01 till s03 to one of the profound conversations between tyrion, grey worm and missandei.
does the difference not outright stab you in the brain?
Well Martin is a book writer excelling in dialogue, so it's not a surprise the first seasons had great dialogue. Now, script writers have taken over. I personally wouldn't say it's worse, just different. More action, less "adapted from books".
Maybe I can tolerate the change since I never thought the show actually lived up to the books. Most of the nuance is lost, shit just seemed to happen at random in the first few seasons (while it was actually not so). There's also much more going on now and they're wasting precious time on a lot of bullshit. The only thing I hate is the Bolton character, I can't fathom why they hold on to him.
Don`t like the way production is going although i like that the`ve picked up the pace some.
I mean, i think it`s mostly because i`m a fan that i`m not complaining more. Tension, the little build ups that build up to the big ones just aren`t executed in that GOT way anymore, they`re just more like any other drama show now.
Still, like that its going somewhere and that it has an end that hopefully sums things up and explains enough. I hope it`s true that they have a direction and some rules as to how this is going to end from GRRM, i read that somewhere i think.
Not being a book writer is not an excuse for writing shitty scenes. If a script writer can't handle writing good dialogue lines, they should fire his ass and find somone who can. Besides, it's not just the dialogue, although that Tyrion scene in the last episode does indeed stand out. Stuff wasn't nearly as random and idiotic in the first few seasons as it is now and it aslo wasn't nearly as badly presented. Take Aria in the last episode, for example. They build up her confrontation with that nameless chick for most of the season (and a part of last season too), she gets her ass handed to her several times and when shit finally gets as serious as it can and we expect a fight to the death and MAYBE a lucky victory, somehow... suddenly we get a cut and an off-screen death instead of a proper fight. Not only is it idiotic and the very definition of plot armor in the works, it's also incredibly anticlimatic. Same thing with Blackfish - whole two episodes wasted on a siege, so that, in the end, nothing really important happens at all and a barely known character dies an off-screen death. That's just lazy writing, nothing else.

Some conspiracy theory:
Spoiler:
Arya is dead, that was waifu wearing her face and going to westeros to do some mega super secret hit on someone
Would be cool but I doubt it
