I'm fine with stupid shows being stupid--I will love DOCTOR WHO until the day I die--but I feel like I was promised a 4 course meal and given cotton candy and skittles instead. What on earth are the writers thinking? Are basic concepts of continuity something else that little Arya McSociopath has indiscriminately slaughtered? Does Westeros shrink when it gets cold?
Emilia Clarke and Maisie Williams still can't act, though I doubt anyone could salvage the writing of those characters at this point. I protested to Cannoli last week that Danaerys was being purposefully written as unstable. I think I was wrong. I think the writers are unstable.
What a train wreck.
Excellent plot development this episode. Arya needs to be humanized again. She was not totally wild, like Nymeria was, but she is not quite like everyone else either. Her emotional and psychological issues definitely need time to heal. Though I wonder if there will be a true blow up before that happens. I imagine at some point she will choose Sansa over everyone else. Starks above all. I do think Maise Williams is doing an excellent job of depicting a sociopath. Though I wish they would give some time to showing her alone so we can see what is going on with her in relation to how she views herself.
Given how you feel about the show, you could always choose to stop watching. Or just accept the inexplicable (such as time and distance shortening for the show's expediency).
If you are really going to complain, complain instead on why ALL of Jon's group didn't bring as many obsidian weapons as they could have.
