Premiers aren't always the best, but this was a decent one. Gave it an 7, minus 3 points for Dorne.

Solid buildup episode with a good ending. I'll have to rewatch to decide on a number though.

Pretty good episode actually. As said above openers are usually boring but this was good.
7. Minus points for Dorne and no Bran.

I didn't mind the Ellaria scene tbh. I'd imagine a lot of people in Dorne felt that way about Doran.

7. My favorite bits were everything Davos and the Sansa/Brienne scene which was perfect.

Premiers aren't always the best, but this was a decent one. Gave it an 7, minus 3 points for Dorne. Same. I'm very unhappy they chose to waste even 3 minutes on Dorne and the sandsnakes but ah, fuck it, the rest was awesome. |

It had a few great scenes (Brienne and Sansa, Cersei and Jaime), and one really, really awful one, the rest was mediocre, definitely not their strongest premier. 6.

Dorne - lol. Aero instantly killed with a dagger in the back. The logic for the killings is OKAY to me, not great but workable, that the Dornish perceive Doran as weak and they want revenge; I just wish that it was a front in the show too. If Aero had fought back and died in a fight (maybe if one other Powerpuff Girl stayed behind, and he killed one, Tyene or Obara, it would have been better IMO. Stupid that Aero just dies after only punching Bronn last season and having no action.
King's Landing - great stuff. The scene with Cersei being elated and running to greet Myrcella, after being told by a handmaiden that a Dornish boat arrived, was heart breaking.
The North - great scenes, glad to see Sansa has taken Brienne into her service; nice to see Pod get some fighting action after his brief training last season (and off screen training daily), also good to see Theon fight for the Stark side again.
Boltons - nice scene with Ramsay and Myranda, "tin man you do have a heart" comes to mind. rip Mannis. soon to be rip Walda and baby Bolton, it seems.
Mereen Group - good scenes, nothing spectacular in my opinion. Jorah and Daario scenes were bland, rip Jorah soon.
Khalasar - great scenes, good to see Dany using her wits and playing dumb as usual with foreign languages, only to use them when she needs to. Khal Moro seems promising.
The Wall - great to see Edd and others getting screentime, Davos brilliant as usual. I especially loved him toying with Alastair Thorne about the mutton. Felt very sorry for Mel, explained why in other threads.
Marg - good scenes, the dialogue between the High Sparrow and Marg were very Catholic I felt; the whole "we're all shit and sinners and hardly anything we do is good".
Overall, pretty good episode. Not premier quality though.

9. Dorne really wasn't that bad. It was pretty dumb, but I actually chuckled at the greedy bitch line and I'm a bit interested to see where it leads. The Sansa/Brienne scene is one of my new favorites from the entire series. I think I liked this a little better than Two Swords. I'll have to watch again though.

Though I haven't settled on a number I'd rank it, as premieres go, as being worse than 401 and 101, about as good as 301 and better than 501 and 201.

I would've given it a 9 if not for Dorne. All the other scenes were great, albeit short.

The scene between Sansa and Brienne was so well done and moving (those were the vows Catelyn gave Brienne) it bumped everything else off the chart in consideration though Jaime and Cersei's scene was great as was Davos, Edd and Mel.

8. It was an OK premiere. I loved everything at The Wall, from Ghost's mournful howling to the "unexpected" twist at the end. The Brienne/Sansa/Theon scene was great too, another high point. The Boltons, Meereen and King's Landing were solid, but unspectacular. Dorne was bad, and Jorah/Daario was a bit boring. Not a bad episode, but I'm starting to believe that the show will never surpass "Two Swords" as the best premiere.  |

Good scenes: Sansa/Brienne, anything involving Davos, Jamie and Cersei (although their conversation about Myrcella could have used punching up.
OK: Tyrion/Varys, Dany, Arya
Bad: Dorne, Boltons. Gee Roose, perhaps if you had a tighter reign on Ramsey so he didn't play his games...maybe none of this would happened? I don't know...just a thought...

Better than expected. I gave it an 8/10. Premier's aren't usually the best episodes as they are usually a reintroduction into the story. This was not the case as much this season.
