WARNING!: Spoiler Alert!

Well, alrighty, then... That certainly blew away some of my theories for what would be happening next Season.

Pissed that they didn't show (my heeero), Brienne of Tarth actually doing the deed to Stannis Baratheon. Now, I'm left wondering if she did it or not!? Or, did someone get her as she lifted her sword, and he is healing in the woods, (possibly as The Hound is?)... An episode without Brienne, is like a day without sunshine!

At least Stannis's creepy wife, http://gameofthrones.wikia.com/wiki/Selyse_Florent ,did the right thing.

Hooray for Arya Stark for getting her deserved, bloody revenge on wicked Meryn Trant , but, now what will she become?

And, what did Sansa Stark and Theon Greyjoy jump into?... I frozen moat?... With a huge army, no one is stationed outside the walls to see them run off?

Were those Dothrakis that surrounded Daenerys? What are they doing in that neck of the woods of Essos ? How handy for her, especially if Drogon is actually left dying.

At least Sam got out of there, alive, with drippy "what's her name", and the kid... Smart man.

R.I.P. - Jon_Snow ... Now you really "know nothing", pretty boy... Who gets his Valyrian steel sword?... And, where was Ghost when he really needed him?

So, evil Melisandre is welcomed back to Castle Black, but Jon Snow is killed? What will be her next move? Who will she manipulate now?

I felt like this episode redeemed the flaws of this Season, but, leaves me with so many questions that I can barely stand to wait for next Season!... So, I guess they did it right.

I also wanted to say that this episode certainly confirmed my abhorrence of kissing anyone wearing lipstick, on the lips.

And, as for Cersei Lannister, I wish I had been there with a bucket of tomatoes!...
;)

BTW, even though I think Melisandre is possibly the most evil and destructive character in the series, I sure admire Carice van Houten who plays her. She's rather amazing in her multiple careers:

I just knew Theon was going to save Sansa. But holy cliffhangers, Batman! And my poor boyfriend is dead, just lying there, Snow bleeding into the snow. I don't know that I shall recover.

These seasons are not long enough. :mad:

If they don't burn your boyfriend soon, he'll become a White Walker. Not pretty.

I agree. Each episode is like a having a new summer blockbuster for HBO. I think they are being cheap. Too much crammed into just 10 episodes per season. The storyline is feeling too rushed. The writers, directors, cast, crew, AND the audience deserve better. (But, I love it anyway!)

It's not been proven that Melisandre has any ability to resurrect people from the dead. All we know that she can do is create a shadow baby with king's sperum. She might be a hack... she most certainly screwed Stannis six ways from Sunday.

Davos... GO F**KING GET RICKON, Osha and Shaggydog!!!!!

Really!... And, where the heck are they now?

Where is Ghost?... I want him to go find and protect Sam, Gilly and little Sam. But, they headed way south to Oldtown so Sam can study to be a Maester at The Citadel.

I hope that next Season, we learn the whereabouts of the surviving Stark family's Direwolves.

For my money we have not seen the end of Jon Snow. The fact that the Red Lady showed back up at the wall right before it happened says to me that we are going to get a repeat Thoros of Mir / Barric Dondarrian situation.

We've already seen a resurrection by the lord of light, but he said that he wasn't the same afterwards.

I despise Melisandre, altho she's very watchable. One of the least trustworthy people in the whole series. What a cow.

Not bothered about Stannis tho, he stooped too low, and Brienne sorted out the rest. ;)

I just saw the last episode for the season. I was not fond of Stannis though I liked him wayy better than any of the the Boltons. I wish his army could have at least put up a better fight.

Poor Jon, he was a character I really liked. Lets hope some magic brings him back.

Although he makes millions of fans swoon, I think it would be silly to bring Jon Snow/Stark back to life. I'm guessing that the demise of him will lead to the rise of his brother Bran Stark, or perhaps their sister Sansa Stark, and maybe even little Rickon Stark... Rumor has it that Bran's storyline will be featured next Season.

Charlie of "Emergency Awesome", on YouTube, is my fave commentator about GoT, but, I disagree with him about Brienne's revenge scene with Stannis. It didn't satisfy me. I was so disappointed that the directors didn't show her actually chop the head off that asshole who was responsible for the murder of her beloved "king", Renly_Baratheon... (The only "good" Baratheon).
