Boy howdy, that was an episode. Regardless of your thoughts on the final season, we can probably all agree that the penultimate episode, “The Bells,” was the MOST episode Game of Thrones has had in a long while, if not ever. Before we get to the big developments in the back half, let's focus on some of the other quieter scenes that really popped...

Okay, let's go...
Was there a well here a long time ago? A well deep enough to fall into?

So good. Still bummed it didn't make it to the Oscar nomination in best foreign language fi-- excuse me "best international film"

The Game of Thrones creative team are taking a very strategic approach into this final season. While last week’s premiere episode laid the groundwork to reorient the viewer and feature satisfying reunions for characters parted for years, they’ve used Episode Two to provide an emotional tapestry between the characters, with a meditation on mortality, before they go into the big battle episodes ahead. For loyal viewers, this episode served as a reminder of our attachment to these characters beyond the narrative, as well as a laser focus on the show’s main theme of honor.
We started with a killer scene where Jaime stands trial against the two families he has slain and wronged over the years, followed immediately by a tender exchange between him and his brother Tyrion (Nicolaj Coster-Waldau and Peter Dinklage are always magical together)...

BEN: Alright Eric, first thing's first: who do you watch with? I'm watching with my two brothers. One understands everything, but doesn't watch it religiously, while the other has never seen a minute. I'll also say that we watched while slightly impaired.
ERIC: I'll watch the whole season with my husband, who is a complete sci-fi/fantasy nerd (he even liked Krull)...and quite frankly, without him, I don't know what I'd do. I'm always saying "who's that again?" when one of the minor characters comes on. The premiere seems like it's just an establishing episode? Not tons of actual drama, but they have a lot of stories to unify, and I think they met that very challenging task smartly, did you...?
