I absolutely love how poignantly this finale laid bare the sad but sweet message of humanism at its core through the Machine's omniscient perspective of mortality.

This episode is the greatest. This is everything I've ever wanted.

Oh, something else that bothered me: In the, uh, surrender negotiations, Tyrion mentioned that Dany was grateful for the ships. How did she capture any ships in this battle? Did she not have to burn many of them? Did a lot of ships' crews just dive into the water and swim for safety after seeing the dragons burn a…

Okay, thanks. I'm glad to hear that one's just my own fault.

It doesn't really feel earned to watch Dany ride a dragon into battle and have all three of them just do everything she wants. I mean, for the most part one of them has roamed the wild and become feral while the other two have been locked up and totally ignored in a dungeon. Now they're trained perfectly enough for…

"Susan gets a really, deeply nasty dig in at Rachel before she dies"

I definitely will. I've never seen Voltron before, and I'm curious. Plus, a good-looking cartoon is its own reward.

Okay, gotcha.

If the format is "Half-hour cartoon," then 65 minutes is a lot closer to two episodes. Either way it's quite an assumption to review a whole season based on that.

Maybe then it should say "First three episodes watched for review" rather than "Pilot watched for review." Just to give me a little bit more confidence as a reader.

It seems rather… ambitious to me that a review whose author only watched the pilot episode can make sweeping conclusions about an entire season of television. If only one episode was viewed, why not review only one episode?

Ah! My bad; never seen it. Thanks for letting me know what was going on here.

Exactly! The fact that he was telling the guy he saved the story of how they met and what happened after, as if he wasn't there and didn't already know it—that was so dumb that the exposition became painfully transparent.

Okay, then a writer may as well have wandered onto the scene and addressed the audience.

I really enjoyed this episode, but McShane's summary of how The Hound wound up where we find him now was some of the most unimaginatively bald-faced exposition I've heard on any show in quite awhile. It was distracting; he may as well have turned and spoken to the camera.

If it hadn't been a fake-out it would have been horribly on-the-nose, but since it was I'm alright with it.

I still think he's great, but the problem is that there never seems to be a good reason for him to be around anymore.

I'm banning the words "darkness" and "light" from television.

Why is everything so stupid? Taiana decides to give up and die instead of spending thirty seconds seeing whether she might be able to control the magic? A nuclear missile vulnerable to a line-of-sight hack? A Supergirl-esque speech inspiring hope in people saves the day via a street brawl? Oliver forgets how to…

It was an alright season wrap-up, but I just can't figure the logic of the final scene. There's no basis for an arrest! She didn't lie (that he knows of); *they* told her who she was! She's done nothing wrong and arrest worthy that he's aware of. I understand the dramatic turn of trust they wanted to make with the…
