And why would I want them?
Soooooooo good! Best finale yet indeed!! That Hound/Brienne fight was absolutely insane. Also STANNIS about to take shit over now. With Tywin gone I'm not sure who is going to be watching over Kings Landing now.

Same here, I've never really disliked him, but he's always seemed plain to me, just so straight faced lacking any and all humor or personality. But that's what I'm starting to like about him.
I thought so too! I almost felt it was a Monty Python skit.

Fantastic episode. Reached all the highs I was hoping for. When Stannis showed up to fight I was like a school girl. Then when Tyrion killed the whore for her lies I smiled. Then when he killed his dad I was legit shook.
Man the wait is going to kill me, but got damn that was a damn fine season, might be my favorite season of the series.

Don't forget our boy Jojen.
Also, we don't know if the hound is dead, he might yet live. Doubtful as hell, but who knows with this show.

We need a nope.gif of the scene.
an epilogue scene was cut from the finale. we would have loved to see it in there, but it appears it's been moved/cut.
regardless, it was an excellent episode and that omission isn't enough to detract from every other good thing they had going on there.
If you really want to know (spoiler-free) shoot me a PM
To tell you would be spoilers, so no telling!
Also, I'm assuming he must also be a book reader, so he shouldn't be here either tbh.
Anyway, I'm outta here.
Yeah, he's got a very cool demeanor. I like that he pretty much let Onion Knight do the talking while he stood there radiating royalty.
Crazy ep, Old tree guy telling him to fly rather than walk made me chuckle. He's going to fly more ravens or even Drogon since the other two dragons where chained up by Daenerys.
Also if you watched closely, Tyrion didn't really shoot the arrow's at Tywin's heart. The first arrow shot below the heart and the 2nd arrow shot at his lower shoulder.
The hound telling Arya about where to aim for, his heart in order to finish him gave this away.
Stannis popping in with an army certainly surprised me, and Mellisandre looking at Jon Snow gave me straight chills. Her and Jon snow going to have wild leech sex next season.

Glorious episode. Everything that should have happened last season, but we had to show Theon being tortured for 10 hours.
Speaking of him, I hope they just forget his entire subplot, just say in a conversation that the Boltons and the Greyjoys exterminated each other. Who gives a shit.
But going to back to people that actually matter, Bran's story has finally gone somewhere. The show is getting more magical, it was weird, total video game battle up there with the skeletons. I liked it though. What I didn't like was that children were literally children (I mean, terrible child actors and stuff).
Stannis' posse was still stuck in post-Blackwater and has finally gotten out of that depression pit. And look how easy it is to "cross the Wall" in a boat. I guess the Wildlings just don't master navigation.
Arya is finally going to Bravos after walking in circles in the North for two seasons.
Now, I didn't like how Tywin was killed "in the privy", sort of anticlimatic, not to mention how convenient it was nobody was guarded (did I miss an explanation here?). Also, Shae fooled me for sure, I thought she was just being bitter in the trial, but she was indeed just a whore (sorry, Tyrion).
All in all, I need to rewatch this episode again. Too much stuff I need to digest.
Oh, and I loved Varys reaction in the end! Reaction gif worthy.

Yes! This so much. This is exactly why I'm starting to really like him.

I agree completely. I was losing my shit seeing GoT go full on fantasy with Stalfos and Fire spells. Also loved Old Man Willow or whatever. I don't understand how that could have been a low point of the episode like some people are saying.

I just want to point out book readers are openly discussing a spoiler that was not in the episode. DO NOT google search any name that's being mentioned around the internet/twitter now. The name alone won't mean anything to you, just don't google it.

Arya showing the coin and getting that immediate respect and sailing off was THE perfect ending
Deadly Cyclone
Pride of Iowa State
So I can't just jump into the book series now with 4 right? Because they deviated so much?
They haven't deviated to much. They cut corners here and there but it's pretty close.

LOL oh shit he did! hahahaha
it was the moment I've been waiting for since she got the coin
What a fantastic episode - it was a perfect finale for once. Seeing the boat sail away filled me with sadness. There are so many questions now...the next season should be amazing. Man, will have to rewatch to just digest everything. Seeing the Hound go was said and I wonder what they are doing with his brother. Also, I wonder if Brandon will get control of Drogo.
That was an amazing fucking episode!!!!!! Holy shit!!!!
The Hound Brienne fight was incredible and holy shit was it brutal! Loved it!
Arya leaving the Hound to die while he begged for mercy was absolutely AMAZING! I can't wait yo go back and watch the season again to see if that was foreshadowed.
Arya has become my favorite Stark?
The Bran scene was incredible!!! Even though I was confused as fuck at the end and who that tree guy was it was intriguing nonetheless. Poor Jojen though :-(
wtf with Dany locking up her dragons!?!??!? That as so sad. Also what happened to that huge black one? He was much much bigger than those two. So is he on the loose now? Maybe he will try and free his brothers? Dany losing her power by the second now :-(
Omg omg omg the Tyrion scene!?!?!?!!? Shae you bitch! I couldn't fucking believe it?!?!?! She was fucking Tywin the whole time?!?!? Fuck her!
And what about Tywins holier than thou bullshit about whores? What a piece of shit. I'm so glad he got his due. I wish Tyrion had put a few more in him. Funny he died on the shitter. I wonder if it was gold lol
And the final scene with Arya was great! So is that guy going to take her to the wall now? I didn't quite understand. She have him the coin of that shapeshifter guy and all of a sudden he let her on the ship.
Anyways fucking great episode!!
I need season five inside my ass right now!

Different characters are at different points in the books. Some characters just finished book 3 whereas others are in book 4/5 (books 4/5 take place roughly at the same time).
Fuckity fuck fuck. Why did I google what people were saying on Twitter.(((
Rookie mistake my friend. Spoiler Morgolis.
He should be; his death scene was unintentionally hilarious.
