She is better than me, if I were her, after Arya and Sansa both told her to _*_* off, I would wash my hands of them and move on with my life.

Brienne takes a vow very seriously

We got to see Doran seems like an interesting character everyone from Dorne so far i've liked. And Jaime/Bronn are on their way there that should be really exciting.

Brienne/Pod found Sansa... wasn't to surprising her reaction towards Brienne tho, Thanks to Little Finger. hopefully she continues to follow them.

As for Dany wow, I didn't have a problem with her killing that guy. Then seeing Drogon

All the stuff at The Wall was great, Sam/Shireen/Gilly liked their scene.
Jon becoming commander of the Nights Watch that's cool(

when Sam nominated him), but when Stannis offered him the title of becoming a Stark

that had to be tempting.

- Jon always wanted to be a Stark. He always envied Robb for it.

Spoiler:

- I'm glad that Arya found the House of Black and White.

- Prince Doran is just as awesome as Oberyn. I can't wait to him more.

- I think Dany wanted peace between the slaves and the masters.

- Selyse too paranoid to see Gilly is harmless. I don't think Gilly would hurt anyone. Ygritte saw no threat to her. She is a mother too.

- I'm glad that Jon became Lord Commander.

Doran is my favourite new character so far this season as well.

It might change when we see The High Sparrow next week though

Doooooorne!

I'm not going to lie, I was a bit disappointed when they chose to cut Arianne Martell from the show entirely but I can't blame them for it really since hers is a long convoluted plot that doesn't really lead anywhere.
I'm really glad that Ellaria is getting an expansion though. I like her character and if Jaime ends up in Dorne, at least there should be some sparks flying

Did she though?

I was surprised either. I still think that whole plot took way too much time though. They could have spotted Sansa, approached her, get rejected and follow her without the 10 mn of Little Finger "catching up on GoT for dummies" speech and pointless fight/pursuit scene in the woods.

They are cutting stuff left and right to make good time, they should use their time more effectively.

I know that they have to completely invent stuff for Brienne and Jaime at this point it would be great if they could make it count a little more.

And, as Little Finger was nice enough to point out for people who don't remember the plot from two seasons ago, she "screwed up" (at least publicly) her previous oath so she's not going to give up on that one so easily.

I didn't either but obviously, I don't have a vote in Mereen

I dont know if I am the only one but this season episodes have been "slow" and a bit boring.

It's only two episodes. It will pick up once we get into the middle of the season.

I watched all 4 leaked, and I find them all a bit boring.
Too much talk.

There is no action yet. Give it time. There will be.

I only got chance to watch this yesterday, but it was worth the wait! I thought this was an awesome episode with lots going on.

A few of my highlights:

- Jaquen H'gar!! Soo glad he is back!! Really looking forward to Aryas storyline developing.

- Jon Snow being lord commander!! I would really like him to go to winterfell and be Jon Stark but can see why he won't. I know it was different to the books, but I really liked Sam's so peach.

- Pod and Brienne are a great pairing and I loved seeing kick ass Brienne!!

- Dani was in a tricky position but be interesting to see if she gains the respect and love back for the people.

Was hoping the Sandsnakes would

-The Braavos location is beautiful. As is Maisie/Arya. She's been looking so beautiful. It was cool seeing Jaqen again.

-Sansa always picks the wrong person to go off with, doesn't she.

I can't blame her though. I enjoyed the chase scene too.

-Nice seeing a glimpse of Trystane and Myrcella in Dorne. And Doran! I love Alexander Siddig.

-And I adored Shireen teaching Gilly to read. I didn't know about that so it was a pleasant surprise.

Episode was a little slow. Hope the season picks up soon.

I feel bad for Dany. Trying to rule is hard, especially with all these people who come from different backgrounds and have different beliefs. And not sure what to make of her dragon running off again lol.

Jon's storyline bores me so again, didnt really pay attention there. Whoops.

Jaime and Bronne going off to take the daughter? Yeah, dont think that will go well. Oberyn's brother seems like a decent guy though.

I love Brienne and her wanting to help the stark girls but jeez woman, if they dont want it then let it be.

I'm not really sure what she is doing. I dont really blame Sansa for not wanting to go with her?

Arya's storyline interested me the most. I love her and I AM SO HAPPY TO SEE JAQEN AGAIN YAS.
