I specifically only enjoy definitely wrong and very ridiculous fan theories for basically this reason.

Drogon was busy defending Jon, who only needed defending because he's an idiot.

Everyone on this hunt needs to tell Jon how awesome his sister is (based on their experiences with her at least—they've been spared the S7 Winterfell storyline).

Poor Sansa — worrying about how to keep the lords loyal to Jon, getting them to fight for the north/humanity, prepping for a war against an enemy she doesn't understand without any military experience or training, and now facing threats from her long lost sister — all in defense of someone who already handed their…

She did cry onscreen, just later on with Jon.

I'm willing to suspend disbelief for hatlessness — a necessary evil if I want to know who I'm looking at — but, for the love of God, WHY DON'T THEY HAVE HORSES?? All that budget and they can't afford some measly horses??!

Hey, wait a minute, good point — why doesn't Dany wear a crown?

That's exactly who I'm talking about! Ok, glad I'm not the only who was one confused.

LEAKED EP SPOILERS
Even without hats, I found it hard to tell what was going on sometimes. There was a point where I thought we'd just seen Tormund die and then there was Tormund.

The fact that I watched the episode on my phone was no doubt a factor in the confusion though.

Pretty sure she and Robert acknowledge the child at some point in a show-only conversation, though it's been awhile so I could be wrong about this.

Exactly! Why nitpick about hats when you can nitpick about horses??

The real, real question is: Why do any of this at all when anyone who has ever met Cersei Lannister should be able to tell you she'd eagerly jump at the opportunity to bring the entire realm down with her when facing a certain death, and Dany could easily conquer the Iron Throne in, like, a couple days?

A stupid, stupid fan theory.

They should never have had to kidnap Jaime since he should have been a captive after the The Spoils of War anyway.

Maybe Bran's birth brought the Night King back and he's just been amassing an army ever since.

well you're not wrong

The hacker's didn't leak this Sunday's GoT. Spain just aired it early.

Even though the medieval maternal mortality rate would likely have only been around 3-4%! (which, to be clear, is high, but nowhere near the child mortality rate of the same era)

George only knows how to stretch things out.

Even then the series has fewer dead babies than history. Didn't the child mortality rate used to be, like, 20%?
