It was important for Theon and Jon to have that conversation. It was the final turn back to him being what he was prior to his choice to betray the Starks. His character arc was one my faves of the series.
Even tho the show sped up everyone’s character arcs and some where somewhat questionable? Theons is one im happy with, just wish we saw more of that road to redemption
@@marieclaudeb.2366 yup, theons quivering face showing how he will always be broken, he's just trying to keep moving forward. And Jon encouraging him instead of shutting him down, trying to keep whatever dignity and hope he had left intact. True to Jon's character.
Rhaegar wasn't the mad king, he was the mad kings son, Danaerys's brother. Actually, all we've ever heard of Rheagar is nice (now that we know the kidnapping thing is a lie). He seemed to be kind and honourable and a man of the people. So if Robert could have just chilled a little, this would've probably turned out very different 🤷♀️
@@flexorcist30 I hope the theory is one day proven or not, I fear we will never see the final books. I’ve been waiting to read the series until I know it’s finished but through UA-cam I’ve been picking up lore
One has to consider Theon's plight. He was a ward of the Starks.. Basically a prisoner. However, Ned raised him. He always had an internal conflict within himself whether he was a Stark or a Greyjoy. He wanted something for himself when he went home to dad. Only to find out he had to make him proud to get his respect. He bumbled things epically. Paid for his sins. However, seeking John's guidance was such a great scene.. John affirming to him he doesn't have to be one or the other. He can be both. I think it gave Theon the inner peace and confidence he needed to move forward. It's a great scene. A second watch through definitely had it hit home more for me. However I've seen the series probably 8 times and love Theon's arc.
34:47 "they're going to be at Winterfell in a day or two!" Actually, WInterfell is quite a distance from the wall, about 600 miles. Of course if the wights could run like Gendry can, they'd be there in half an hour.
Theon had one of the most genuine character arcs of the entire show. He is a Greyjoy. And he is a Stark. He's probably the easiest to understand character arc out of all these grey characters so its pretty wild yall dont see that lol.
Bran can see things more clearly if he looks for them and concentrates, he had no reason to look to see if a marriage happened between Lyanna and Rhaygar, once Sam told him about what he'd read he went and had a look to check and there it was. He has thoughts and images of everything that has ever happened flitting through his head constantly so sorting through that lot must be a nightmare, no wonder he's almost catatonic.
I was so happy when Littlefinger finally got taken out. If you think about it, all of the wars and misfortune pretty much stem from him (assisting in the murder of John Arryn is the reason Robert and his family go to Winterfell to seek out Ned.)
I mean, while he wasn't directly responsible for many deaths (as he hardly ever bloodied his own hands), his actions lead to thousands upon thousands of deaths. He's probably responsible for more deaths in the show in a way than any other character, than most combined. He was one of the major villains in the show, even if he seemed more "background" at times.
@@mrtwism For the most part, not every single one, but the major conflicts yeah. Obviously he can't control everyone, especially things happening with Dany, but he tried his best with that too.
"How do you plead? .... Lord Baelish?" Perfection. Full points to Aidan Gillan, who played the moment of not realizing what he'd heard, then one of startled realization - all beautifully subdued - marvelous acting.
Maester Aemon was talking about his younger brother, who was also called Aegon (Egg for short). As he was dying, some of his earliest memories of his brother came back to him. That Aegon though isn't any Aegon we know of yet from GoT or HotD, but will be shown in "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms" upcoming prequel tv show, that will be based on the novels. They are about Dunk and Egg, meaning Duncan the Tall and Aegon V.
That Aegon was his late brother, King Aegon V Targaryen who took the throne after the Meister refused the throne. He was father to the Mad King's Mother & father (yuck) lol.
I mean, I can tell right away you're not a parent lol If that was your daughter or son he hung by a rope with their neck snapped, you'd be singing a different tune You mean to tell me your mom or dad would forgive him if he did that to you? Not a snowball's chance in hell lol Because what parent would?
I think the turning point for Sansa had to be when Littlefinger was pressing her to imagine the worst scenario concerning Arya. “And what would that mean for Arya?” “She would be the Lady of Winterfell,” said Sansa, knowing her breeches-wearing, knife-wielding, assassin of a little sister would no more want that than Ghost would. He overplayed it. Big time. Love your reactions, as always! Peace …
I think you guys haven't really paid attention much to Theon's story arch and how he is coming full circle. He has shown the most improvement of any other character in the show.
@@thepimp31 Yeah. I've watched this show about 6 times all the way through, and the 2nd time was the best in my opinion because it allowed me to fully appreciate the work that went into every single character, and Theon is at the top of that list. But reactors run through it in a few months then move onto another show making it hard to fully comprehend everything that happens.
Exactly!! C&B disdain for Littlefinger throughout the series had me in suspense waiting on this episode! Your reactions are PRICELESS! Sansa, Arya and Bran had all the zingers to put forth and he was begging!
Little Finger finally getting his was everything. I was of the mind that they were both playing him since before she went into his room. B/c I truly don't think, at this point, that she would have not known in her own house that there were other ways out or places for him to hide in the room & she didn't even look. I could be wrong but I like to think they got his ass lol.
Apparently there was a full scene between bran, Sansa and Arya that showed the realisation between them that LF was playing them against each other but the producers thought to cut that out
@@stevenparker3952there was a script where Sansa was about to have Arya killed as well and her being jealous of Jon originally which goes to show how d&d have a weird thing for her
I have enjoyed so much rewatching GoT with you guys. You are so much fun! I watched it when it aired, but seeing it thru you has been a blast! I can't wait to start HoD with you. Thank you for all you do!
Littlefinger started the kidnapping story to start the war so Ned and Robert would die and he could have Cat. Same as he started the Lannister Stark war.
Jons Name is Aegon Targaryen 6th of his name. There were 5 Aegons before in the History of the Targaryens. You will get more information soon. The "EGG" Maester Aemond was talking about was Aegon 5th of his Name. HBOs next new Series will be about him
You only get the number when you are the king of Westeros or else there would have been 10+ Aegons since remeber that Maegor killed his nephew who is literly called Aegon the uncrowned 🙄
I read somewhere that there was a deleted scene where the Stark siblings have a meeting and Bran tells Sansa and Arya about what Littlefinger is trying to do (and what he has done in the past). They weren’t playing him all along, just at the end.
littlefinger doesn't start actively denying the accusations until sansa brings up ned. he's sidestepping, giving excuses, oh lysa was a troubled woman i did what i did to protect you. but the minute she starts with the betraying ned stuff he Knows he's fucked. bc if he can't shake this accusation he Knows he will die in this room. that's why he starts begging, bc there's no other game to play, there is only begging for his life. and so he dies in ned stark's home, by his daughter's hands
Little finger showed his hand when he had sansa thinking arya wanted to be lady of Winterfell. I like to think that they were not playing him the whole time, just that he overstepped there because Sansa knows arya better than that.
Yeah I agree with this take. And then maybe Sansa went to Bran to try to find out more. But that whole Lady of Winterfell bit was definitely a turning point for Sansa. How many times has Arya said that she doesn’t want to be a lady
I agree. The arguments between Sansa and Arya before that were them getting to know each other again after not being close as kids and being separated for so many years. They had to figure each other out to be able to start trusting oneanother. But as soon as that trust was established again and LF overstepped by trying to convince Sansa that Arya wants to be Lady of Winterfell, they teamed up against him.
You two do such a great job with this series. I recommended my sister who is a huge GoT fan to watch your series because I know she would love it. Keep up the great work!
The whole just for gold thing for the Hound was bullshit. He would tell you its just for the money but if so why wouldnt he have just taken Arya to the Lannisters. Quickest route to the most money and im sure a paradon for any running away of sieges for such a hostage. He rly cared about the Stark girls
I am sure the Starks planned it all when they were by the tree. Bran sees things he knows about, he cannot see everything but he can see paths in which way things could go to. So he told Sansa and Arya everything about Littelfinger that is why Sansa sent away Brienne, so she cannot come across the plan. Sansa knew what little finger not knew and that is that Arya NEVER wanted to be lady. They set it up with Brands help, that is why Arya wanted to "train" with Brienne, so littlefinger sees what she became :)
You guys have the best reactions to anything lol it’s hard to watch any other UA-camrs reactions, you guys are top tier. Season 8 is absolutely wild. Looking forward to watching you guys react to it!
Sansa didn't "snap out of it". Her and Arya were playing him all along. No way they would let him fool them with Bran around that is able to see everything.
There was a scene in the script that the acror who plays Bran says eas filmed where Sansa finally goes to him saying “i need your help”. His context was it was for this episode where it all came to a head versus some long plot by the ladies. I figured that hbo did bit air it because they did not want to take away from girl power by having a man set them straight on screen.
I loved Arya from the beginning. Her training started then and continued with the faceless man. She had more training than just with a stick. Life goes on beyond what we see on camera.
The primary way the writers killed time after they ran out of books is by taking two characters who either have never met, or haven't met in a long time, and gave them dialog that pretty much just summarizes events from the past.
Aegon is the most common Targaryen name. Elia and Rhaegar had a son Aegon a few short years before Lyanna did. But he wa supposedly killed by the Mountain when he killed Elia - "You raped her, you murdered her, you killed her children!"
The fact that some people still don't understand that Arya, Bran, and Sansa had a meeting off-screen is so frustrating lol. Arya giving the dagger to Sansa in episode 6 was basically her telling Sansa to go talk to Bran. Bran would've told Sansa about what Littlefinger did, and then all 3 of them would've had to get together to hatch the plan in order to corner Littlefinger and execute him for his crimes. Yet, there's people that think none of that happened.
I really hoped Littlefinger was going to win. I had a mental image of a final shot, first tight on Littlefinger's smirking face, then pull the camera back to show him on the throne, then pull back more to show all of Kings Landing burning
I always assumed they were pretending because Littlefinger has spies everywhere. So he would think he'd be able to drive a big fat wedge between the two.
There's a theory that the Night King has the same seeing powers as the Three Eyed Raven (Bran). He can see stuff happening all over the world. This means he knew about the dragons, and worked to make sure they would end up coming north so he could kill and appropriate them. If you look carefully in the preceeding episode, you might notice there are three of those spears stowed on the horse. Three spears for three dragons. In the end he only got one, but one was enough.
AHHHH i’m so excited for y’all to watch house of the dragon, this has been my comfort channel since y’all watched yellowjackets and hotd is my fave show, u guys are gonna looooveeeee ittttt
Fun fact= The reason why Bronn and Podrick left the meeting for a drink is that Bronn's actor ''Jerome Flynn'' and Cersei's actress ''Lena Headey'' used to be married IRL and divorced, it was in their contract that they would not have a single scene together. ^^
in the books all dragons have their flames the same or a similar color to their own, for example balerion had black fire with a little red in it, some dragons had gold, blue or silver fire
I'm glad you'll be watching House of the Dragon soon. I feel you've suffered enough with these final seasons of Game of Thrones. You deserve to watch some quality again.
I believe there is a theory that two of the only people that might have seen Lyanna & Rhaegar together/leave together is Benjen (why is kinda punishes himself by going to the wall for not stopping his sister & possibly saving her life) and Littlefinger who possibly said something like "Rhaegar took her" or another inaccurate statement vs "I saw them & she didn't look in distress" etc.
I didn't notice until this reaction that when Danny Landed inside the pit, all the Soldiers moved out of Drogon's way and gathered behind everyone else sitting.
We actually saw wights swim last episode, twice. Once when 2 popped out of the water to grab Tormund, and again when they obviously had to go into the water to retrieve Viscerion. Jon's presumption that they can't go into water, or swim, is entirely based around the fact that they didn't chase him once he got onto the boats at Hardhome. But just because they didn't chase Jon and the others doesn't mean they couldn't if they wanted to. Night King was just toying with them though.
Theon's story arc is one of the most amazing things ever written in literature and Alfie's Allen performance is just brilliant. It saddens me when i see people don't understand it and don't appreciate it. Sometimes people don't deserve good things.
There is a lot of criticism online about how Littlefinger dies, but I think it's brilliant. I love how cute the Night King is when he's flying dragon, I think he looks hilarious. I also see Jon and crew are still using that magic fecking flying carpet.
It feels like little fingers end came without the good writing . It will probably be way better in the books . More crafty and strategic . Like someone said in the comments , why didn’t he challenge bran’s accusations . From the outside looking in it looks more like a show of fear on the starks part than actual Justice
@@notjinx99 it’s the same way it took multiple episodes for characters to get somewhere and now Danny is fast traveling from location to location. They don’t even take the time to say 1month later or a year later or something to show that time passed
@@Kyubii01 true danny’s character buildup has entirely been ruined in the last 2 seasons. plus imo jon’s shouldve stayed as bastard (non of this secret marriage bullshit storyline) as thats his whole purpose. his character arc was based on that
It’s really a case of character assassination to move the plot along. LF’s plan makes zero sense if the writers had just thought about it for ten seconds
The Wall is protected by magical wards that Bran the Builder put in place when he built the wall, which is why the dead can't cross it. It took a powerful magical being to destroy those wards and now the dead can cross it. And now its out that Robert's rebellion was built on a lie. He was butt hurt because the woman he loved, loved another instead. And Ned went along with it, kinda tarnishes his reputation. I'm pro Targaryen so I have no issue with Dany and Jon hooking up
As far as the show and the books have shown us... Robert and Ned and the rest of the Starks did not know that Lyanna went with Rheagar by choice, so it does not tarnish any ones rep other then Lyanna, she should have told her family that it was her choice to leave.
Sansa sorts out Littlefinger/ Littlefinger asked Sansa after she suggested worst thing is Arya is here to kill her, “Then what would she become?” “The lady of Winterfell” The turning point- Sansa knows Arya never wanted to be “The Lady” of anything. And Arya allowed Sansa to find the faces & told her “all I would need is your face”
Ser Jaime was becoming more and more like Ned and it showed during his conversation with Cersei. I was proud of Jaime because he understood what was at stake better than most people. Nothing else mattered at this point. The Dead were almost here.
Now that the secret of Jon's true parentage is out, it's interesting to rewatch past episodes for clues of who (besides Ned) knew the secret all along. Did Uncle Benjen know? (Probably. Go back and watch those scenes with him and Jon from season 1.) Did Catelyn know? (I doubt it.) Did Littlefinger know (Possibly. He made a subtle "I know something that you don't know" kind of look at Sansa from the corner of his eye when she said that Rhaegar Targaryen had kidnapped her aunt Lyanna.)
As you start getting to the end of GoT, remember that GRRM wanted it to go to 10-13 seasons to help wrap things up neatly, but the two showrunners wanted only 8 seasons because they had other stuff on their plate.
i remember breaking the sound barrier with my scream when sansa looked over at littlefinger.. and also the chills i got when Bran was telling Sam about Jon.. beautiful
The turn with Baelish and Theon finding his "balls" and yes, I wanted Jon and Dany to get together since the *first season* - that was nice. R+L = J was a theory I'd heard for many years and made so much sense. This was a satisfying episode.
also, you will realize that that there are a stupid amount of targ men called Aegon. Personally, I think Jon was named after Good King Jaehaerys - hence Jon. Can't say much about that, since it ties into HotD. Also, Rhaegar had a son named Aegon already.
23:06 BEST NON-RELATED DRAGON REACTION from Bridget this season! 25:13 BEST COUPLE REACTION OF THE SERIES SO FAR! its not often we get joyous reactions in this show and that one was FANTASTIC! 30:59 DUDE! I almost peed! JONATHON!! 😂 35:53 Aemond was referring to his little brother, Aegon V, who took the throne when Aemond refused it because he was a measter and they abandon their family names..
Sansa had to know Arya never wanted to be a lady of anything. That's probably when she got what Lil' Finger was trying to do. I really enjoyed your reactions as always. Thanks!! 😊
The stark sisters were never dumb.. they learned how to play the game by those who played the game against them.. now its littledick's err.. littlefinger's time to pay up.. lol
Tyrion had such a great plan. Let's travel to the Wall for a month, catch some undead dude, then travel back for a month, make truce with Cersei who's planning the defence and doesn't have any plans to attack. After we'll trust Cersei's words like idiots, then we finnaly can spend another month traveling back to the Wall to fight the dead. And then we'll travel back to King's Landing for a month to break the truce we just made 2 month ago. 4 month operation - sure, we can fit that in 6 episodes. Or Daenerys could burn the Red Keep in one day.
I think littlefingers death, while not being the worst of the last 2 seasons, was the most important blunder of bad writing. It actually was a bad decision because they had a better plan they didnt put forth, u can even find some hints of it throughout the season, in one scene littlefinger is giving a single coin to someone and if you turn the volume up she says to littlefinger "your time is up" Littlefinger knew if he stayed in winterfell he will die, I'll leave it to u to speculate what a giving a single coin to someone can mean.

littlefinger doesn't start actively denying the accusations until sansa brings up ned. he's sidestepping, giving excuses, oh lysa was a troubled woman i did what i did to protect you. but the minute she starts with the betraying ned stuff he Knows he's fucked. bc if he can't shake this accusation he Knows he will die in this room. that's why he starts begging, bc there's no other game to play, there is only begging for his life. and so he dies in ned stark's home, by his daughter's hands
I love when Cody said King's Landing is a terrible place when Tyrion and Cersei were talking about how he stopped Dany from attacking full force. 😂😂
Little finger showed his hand when he had sansa thinking arya wanted to be lady of Winterfell. I like to think that they were not playing him the whole time, just that he overstepped there because Sansa knows arya better than that.
Bran told them.
Yeah I agree with this take. And then maybe Sansa went to Bran to try to find out more. But that whole Lady of Winterfell bit was definitely a turning point for Sansa. How many times has Arya said that she doesn’t want to be a lady
I agree. The arguments between Sansa and Arya before that were them getting to know each other again after not being close as kids and being separated for so many years. They had to figure each other out to be able to start trusting oneanother. But as soon as that trust was established again and LF overstepped by trying to convince Sansa that Arya wants to be Lady of Winterfell, they teamed up against him.
Winter is coming. And so is John and Dany.
You two do such a great job with this series. I recommended my sister who is a huge GoT fan to watch your series because I know she would love it. Keep up the great work!
You're not wrong. This Cersei really does look like an angry little boy.
The whole just for gold thing for the Hound was bullshit. He would tell you its just for the money but if so why wouldnt he have just taken Arya to the Lannisters. Quickest route to the most money and im sure a paradon for any running away of sieges for such a hostage. He rly cared about the Stark girls
I myself have always wanted theron Grayjoy be called the Iron Wolf.
Imagine how we felt watching this episode knowing we had to wait a YEAR for the next season.
More like nearly 2 years omg
I remember dreading how much worse it might get. And then somehow they managed to surprise me.
Every reveal is like two Klumps finding out they got a 20 piece McNuggets instead of the 10 piece they order.
Another one of my fav episodes....the roundabout turn on littlefinger is absolutely glorious! Runner up for most satisfying death of the series.
I am sure the Starks planned it all when they were by the tree. Bran sees things he knows about, he cannot see everything but he can see paths in which way things could go to. So he told Sansa and Arya everything about Littelfinger that is why Sansa sent away Brienne, so she cannot come across the plan. Sansa knew what little finger not knew and that is that Arya NEVER wanted to be lady. They set it up with Brands help, that is why Arya wanted to "train" with Brienne, so littlefinger sees what she became :)
You guys have the best reactions to anything lol it’s hard to watch any other UA-camrs reactions, you guys are top tier. Season 8 is absolutely wild. Looking forward to watching you guys react to it!
35:57 Aemon Targaryen was talking about his brother Aegon V Targaryen, not Jon Snow.
Sansa didn't "snap out of it". Her and Arya were playing him all along. No way they would let him fool them with Bran around that is able to see everything.
There was a scene in the script that the acror who plays Bran says eas filmed where Sansa finally goes to him saying “i need your help”. His context was it was for this episode where it all came to a head versus some long plot by the ladies. I figured that hbo did bit air it because they did not want to take away from girl power by having a man set them straight on screen.
Actually they were fooled in the script Sansa was gonna have Arya killed before she went to bran
Bad writing across the board then. With Bran there, they should not have ever been fooled at all.
Hope you guys come around on Theon. Great reaction.
I loved Arya from the beginning. Her training started then and continued with the faceless man. She had more training than just with a stick. Life goes on beyond what we see on camera.
The primary way the writers killed time after they ran out of books is by taking two characters who either have never met, or haven't met in a long time, and gave them dialog that pretty much just summarizes events from the past.
Aegon is the most common Targaryen name. Elia and Rhaegar had a son Aegon a few short years before Lyanna did. But he wa supposedly killed by the Mountain when he killed Elia - "You raped her, you murdered her, you killed her children!"
That scene with the snow falling on jaimies gave me some real Zelda vibes
Now we all had to wait almost 2 years for season 8!!!
I loved Littlefinger, but they took him out in the best possible way.
Littlefinger is so OP he needed Brans magic to bring him down finally
The fact that some people still don't understand that Arya, Bran, and Sansa had a meeting off-screen is so frustrating lol. Arya giving the dagger to Sansa in episode 6 was basically her telling Sansa to go talk to Bran. Bran would've told Sansa about what Littlefinger did, and then all 3 of them would've had to get together to hatch the plan in order to corner Littlefinger and execute him for his crimes. Yet, there's people that think none of that happened.
I'm in the hospital and seeing a new episode up made my day. ❤️
Hope you feel better and get out soon.
I wish you good fortune in the wars to come.
I wish you a quick recovery, and pray the Mother give you good health.
HAHAHAHAHA THE QUIET CLAPS AND GOOD JOB😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I freaking died😂
23:00 i liked your reaction to this part very much, i had to watch it 3 times, or was it even more often?
I really hoped Littlefinger was going to win. I had a mental image of a final shot, first tight on Littlefinger's smirking face, then pull the camera back to show him on the throne, then pull back more to show all of Kings Landing burning
As always, your genuine reactions made my day 🎉
Arya was playing the game of faces with Sansa. Asking her all those tough questions to get her true feelings without hitting her with the sticks. Lmao
I always assumed they were pretending because Littlefinger has spies everywhere. So he would think he'd be able to drive a big fat wedge between the two.
I always assumed the writing was just bad.
There's a theory that the Night King has the same seeing powers as the Three Eyed Raven (Bran). He can see stuff happening all over the world. This means he knew about the dragons, and worked to make sure they would end up coming north so he could kill and appropriate them. If you look carefully in the preceeding episode, you might notice there are three of those spears stowed on the horse. Three spears for three dragons. In the end he only got one, but one was enough.
I love your reactions. I'll even follow you through season 8. It was hard the first time, but it's been nearly 5 years.
AHHHH i’m so excited for y’all to watch house of the dragon, this has been my comfort channel since y’all watched yellowjackets and hotd is my fave show, u guys are gonna looooveeeee ittttt
Fun fact= The reason why Bronn and Podrick left the meeting for a drink is that Bronn's actor ''Jerome Flynn'' and Cersei's actress ''Lena Headey'' used to be married IRL and divorced, it was in their contract that they would not have a single scene together. ^^
in the books all dragons have their flames the same or a similar color to their own, for example balerion had black fire with a little red in it, some dragons had gold, blue or silver fire
That golf clap after the neck cut was everything!
I'm glad you'll be watching House of the Dragon soon. I feel you've suffered enough with these final seasons of Game of Thrones. You deserve to watch some quality again.
I believe there is a theory that two of the only people that might have seen Lyanna & Rhaegar together/leave together is Benjen (why is kinda punishes himself by going to the wall for not stopping his sister & possibly saving her life) and Littlefinger who possibly said something like "Rhaegar took her" or another inaccurate statement vs "I saw them & she didn't look in distress" etc.
I didn't notice until this reaction that when Danny Landed inside the pit, all the Soldiers moved out of Drogon's way and gathered behind everyone else sitting.
Just take note how many times Dany mentions how she can’t have children in this season. Then when the whole series is finished look it up
We actually saw wights swim last episode, twice. Once when 2 popped out of the water to grab Tormund, and again when they obviously had to go into the water to retrieve Viscerion. Jon's presumption that they can't go into water, or swim, is entirely based around the fact that they didn't chase him once he got onto the boats at Hardhome. But just because they didn't chase Jon and the others doesn't mean they couldn't if they wanted to. Night King was just toying with them though.
Theon's story arc is one of the most amazing things ever written in literature and Alfie's Allen performance is just brilliant. It saddens me when i see people don't understand it and don't appreciate it. Sometimes people don't deserve good things.
There is a lot of criticism online about how Littlefinger dies, but I think it's brilliant.
I love how cute the Night King is when he's flying dragon, I think he looks hilarious. I also see Jon and crew are still using that magic fecking flying carpet.
It feels like little fingers end came without the good writing . It will probably be way better in the books . More crafty and strategic . Like someone said in the comments , why didn’t he challenge bran’s accusations . From the outside looking in it looks more like a show of fear on the starks part than actual Justice
thats what im saying. his death felt rushed & forced
@@notjinx99 it’s the same way it took multiple episodes for characters to get somewhere and now Danny is fast traveling from location to location. They don’t even take the time to say 1month later or a year later or something to show that time passed
@@Kyubii01 true danny’s character buildup has entirely been ruined in the last 2 seasons. plus imo jon’s shouldve stayed as bastard (non of this secret marriage bullshit storyline) as thats his whole purpose. his character arc was based on that
@@Kyubii01would that really make you feel Better if they put 1 month later? Give me a fucking break.
It’s really a case of character assassination to move the plot along. LF’s plan makes zero sense if the writers had just thought about it for ten seconds
The Wall is protected by magical wards that Bran the Builder put in place when he built the wall, which is why the dead can't cross it. It took a powerful magical being to destroy those wards and now the dead can cross it. And now its out that Robert's rebellion was built on a lie. He was butt hurt because the woman he loved, loved another instead. And Ned went along with it, kinda tarnishes his reputation. I'm pro Targaryen so I have no issue with Dany and Jon hooking up
As far as the show and the books have shown us... Robert and Ned and the rest of the Starks did not know that Lyanna went with Rheagar by choice, so it does not tarnish any ones rep other then Lyanna, she should have told her family that it was her choice to leave.
Sansa sorts out Littlefinger/
Littlefinger asked Sansa
after she suggested worst thing is Arya is here to kill her,
“Then what would she become?”
“The lady of Winterfell”
The turning point- Sansa knows Arya never wanted to be “The Lady” of anything.
And Arya allowed Sansa to find the faces & told her “all I would need is your face”
Ser Jaime was becoming more and more like Ned and it showed during his conversation with Cersei. I was proud of Jaime because he understood what was at stake better than most people. Nothing else mattered at this point. The Dead were almost here.
“JONATHAN!!!” 😂😂😂
Now that the secret of Jon's true parentage is out, it's interesting to rewatch past episodes for clues of who (besides Ned) knew the secret all along.
Did Uncle Benjen know? (Probably. Go back and watch those scenes with him and Jon from season 1.)
Did Catelyn know? (I doubt it.)
Did Littlefinger know (Possibly. He made a subtle "I know something that you don't know" kind of look at Sansa from the corner of his eye when she said that Rhaegar Targaryen had kidnapped her aunt Lyanna.)
As you start getting to the end of GoT, remember that GRRM wanted it to go to 10-13 seasons to help wrap things up neatly, but the two showrunners wanted only 8 seasons because they had other stuff on their plate.
thank you Bridget for making me laugh at the "what do you think they spend their gold on?" scene
i remember breaking the sound barrier with my scream when sansa looked over at littlefinger.. and also the chills i got when Bran was telling Sam about Jon.. beautiful
Jon is named after Aegon the Conqueror. Balerion was his Dragon (the skull in the red keep)
40:32 👈 this is why I watch you guys the most!! You're a lucky man Cody! This laugh is infectious!!!
The turn with Baelish and Theon finding his "balls" and yes, I wanted Jon and Dany to get together since the *first season* - that was nice. R+L = J was a theory I'd heard for many years and made so much sense. This was a satisfying episode.
also, you will realize that that there are a stupid amount of targ men called Aegon. Personally, I think Jon was named after Good King Jaehaerys - hence Jon. Can't say much about that, since it ties into HotD. Also, Rhaegar had a son named Aegon already.
24:17 I love this from Sansa
The reaction to Littlefinger finally getting exposed is EVERYTHING 😂😂😂
Can’t wait for 8x3
23:06 BEST NON-RELATED DRAGON REACTION from Bridget this season!
25:13 BEST COUPLE REACTION OF THE SERIES SO FAR! its not often we get joyous reactions in this show and that one was FANTASTIC!
30:59 DUDE! I almost peed! JONATHON!! 😂
35:53 Aemond was referring to his little brother, Aegon V, who took the throne when Aemond refused it because he was a measter and they abandon their family names..
S3 Littlefinger: *Chaos is a ladder!*
S7 Littlefinger: *Shansha, pleash...I love you!*
Dany: "sup nephew, you down to FFUUUUUHHH?" 😂
Sansa had to know Arya never wanted to be a lady of anything. That's probably when she got what Lil' Finger was trying to do.
I really enjoyed your reactions as always. Thanks!! 😊
This is when Tyrion betrays Dany. He knows Cersei isn't sending anyone to fight the dead.
The stark sisters were never dumb.. they learned how to play the game by those who played the game against them.. now its littledick's err.. littlefinger's time to pay up.. lol
Tyrion had such a great plan. Let's travel to the Wall for a month, catch some undead dude, then travel back for a month, make truce with Cersei who's planning the defence and doesn't have any plans to attack. After we'll trust Cersei's words like idiots, then we finnaly can spend another month traveling back to the Wall to fight the dead. And then we'll travel back to King's Landing for a month to break the truce we just made 2 month ago. 4 month operation - sure, we can fit that in 6 episodes. Or Daenerys could burn the Red Keep in one day.
I think littlefingers death, while not being the worst of the last 2 seasons, was the most important blunder of bad writing. It actually was a bad decision because they had a better plan they didnt put forth, u can even find some hints of it throughout the season, in one scene littlefinger is giving a single coin to someone and if you turn the volume up she says to littlefinger "your time is up" Littlefinger knew if he stayed in winterfell he will die, I'll leave it to u to speculate what a giving a single coin to someone can mean.
The Love Boat😂
