People throwing round them 10 votes... I'd say it was a solid 9.6, but you have to round up. Ehhh... I thought the major scenes were good. The stuff that matters. Just had a little too much tickle tackle attached. They need to stop giving Grey Worm lines.

I would rate a solid 9.5 so I upped it to a 10.

Gurl, not all of your Queen's favourite scenes are perfect This was definitely the worst of all her big ones IMO. Really? You thought it was worse than the Mysa crowd-surfing? I wasn't as fond of that as much. This wasn't her most epic ending like riding Drogon out of Daznak's nor as emotional as the original fire/birth of dragons, but it was still pretty damn amazing.

I gave it an 8. Solid episode, better than last week.
Liked: The sibling reunions, even though I found the Greyjoy and Tyrell reunions more emotional than the Stark one. Jon needs to be slapped hard by Sansa. Tyrion needs to be slapped by Grey Worm and Missaendi. Jonathan Pryce's performance. Gemma Whalen's performance Queensmoot! Iain Glen's performance. Oleanna's nope to Margarey doing a walk of shame Margarey's pep talk to Loras Hope the show follows through with Tyrion getting served some humble pie Emilia acts so much better when she has to speak a language other than English. I am sure this episode nets her another Emmy nod. The looks between Brienne and Tormund Disliked: How come no one is mentioning to Cersei that she's the one that basically landed Margarey and Loras in jail and basically emboldened the High Sparrow when he suited her? I was glad to see Tommen finally observe that his mother did not like Margarey. Jon needs to stop whining. I was glad to see the Pink Letter make it but Sansa's word should have been enough. The fact that he was not willing to fight for Winterfell even after Sansa presumably told him what happened to her was weak sauce on his part. The end scene really did not have the effect on me like I thought it should have but it moved Dany's plot along...so it worked on that level. The fact that Osha is dead.

So even though I'm busy being feisty and defending Daenerys as immune to fire, guess what? I'm not giving this one a 10. It's a solid 9 probably 9.5 but there were a few scenes I didn't really care for and while one scene does not make an episode, I feel like people are basing their rating only on the last scene so that's not fair. I liked the final scene but I'm reviewing the episode as a whole and I didn't care for Jorah/Daario scenes and I didn't care for the High Sparrow's long story about making shoes to Margaery. Where his 'brainwashing' was clear with the others, it seems oddly out of place with Margaery. Because she's materialistic he talks about how the highborn pay a lot for time spent making shoes?
I think I need to definitely give the slower scenes a good thorough re-watch but for now I'm sticking this one as a 9. I already gave 6x02 a 10 and I do believe it was a very solid episode but this one may have been just as solid too. Way better than 6x01 and 6x03.

The shoe monolog did go on a bit long, but Pryce is just so damn good that I enjoyed it. Meereen was the only weak part for me. And it was miles better than the Tyrion scene from last week.

The fact that Osha is dead. I dunno, I'd be pretty ready to retire if I just got stabbed a bunch, died, brought back, and hanged my killers. I don't blame him for not wanting to fight when he didn't really have a reason to. And now he does and he has accepted it.

My favourite scenes were probably the Kings Landing scenes, both the Small Council and the various Sept scenes. Jonathan Pryce stole it again, and I continue to be impressed with Lena Headey. Her best season acting-wise so far, in my opinion. Also really loved the Iron Islands, Gemma Whalen and Alfie were great. The North was alright. RIP Osha Sad to see her offed so soon after she got back, I love the actress. Can't say I wasn't expecting it though. I liked the Daenerys scene, and appreciated the similarity to season one. Makes sense that what made the Dothraki bow once would do so again. Wasn't perfect, dialogue was a bit weak and execution could have been better, but overall satisfied with it, Didn't like The Vale, Meereen, and Jorah/Daario, though I thoug Iain Glen's performance was very good. Overall score will be an 8 I think.

I gave it a 9, but it's very close to a 10. LIKED Jon and Sansa's reunion...I had major ugly cry face going on. My husband laughed at my tears. Sansa being a boss. I thought I would hate Brienne telling Davos and Melisandre about killing Stannis, but when she said "I don't forgive or forget" I got major and got over it. Even though I wanted Davos to throw something. Dany's ending was amazing. Even though I really wanted Drogon to be there like the foiler said, but that was a great scene for her. No better way to tell a bunch of rapey dudes to STFU. Pink letter was epic, but I wish Davos was in the scene to hear it. Could Tormund eye fuck Brienne any harder? Grey Worm - I just love hearing him say he kills for his Queen. Pycelle walking out of the room extra slowly to piss off Cersei DISLIKED When did Loras turn into such a wuss? The only thing not making this a 10 is me still being bitter over Jaime and Cersei working together. Fuck you, Littlefiner. Fuck you Sweetrobin Was not expecting Osha to die so quickly, but at least she went out with a plan to kill in mind.

I loved the look on Daario's face at the end. Now do you see why Jorah's crushing so hard on this girl? *the magic, not the nudity

Man, you'd think Ramsay was keeping him captive instead of the Faith. It's just a weird contrast to how Loras was in the books. Not that I'm a book purist, or even a Loras fan. That just felt really OOC to me. I'm happy that Marg is staying strong though.

That was the first time I've been impressed with Finn's acting tbh (I'm not a fan of that deleted post-Renly's death scene from the s2 dvd). But that felt very real.

It's an 8 for me. A solid one, this season has not seen a really weak episode yet, IMHO.
Le Good:
* Jon and Sansa reunion. It's been a while... Finally two Starks together. In a story full of bleakness and despair, this little moments of hope are always great.
* Brienne and Tormund. Shipping Torienne right now. The mix of characters in The Wall is priceless: Jon, Sansa, Davos, Melisandre, Tormund, Edd, Brienne, Podrick... So many potential great interactions there!
* Edd is great as always.
* King's Landing was entertaining. Jonathan Pryce owns that storyline so far.
* Dany's scene was well done, and it was great to see her taking care of herself instead of being rescued by Drogon ex Machina again.
Le Not So Good:
* I'm not feeling Meereen storyline yet. At least it was better than last week.
* The show is overusing Ramsay at this point. I think the show really needs a couple of episodes without him.

I changed my vote to a 9 because I think was too excited the first time. It was still just as strong as "Home" though.
