They've been in the background a few times this season, but they can easily be mistaken for Dothraki. One of them was killed by the Harpy Whore which ultimately led to Barristan being shanked.
The scale of Meereen and its inhabitants has been a massive failure on the show's part.

I'd like there to eventually be an animated adaption, so that the grand scale can be captured properly.

The final episode is upon us! What are your predictions / speculation?
- Olly totally kills Jon. Duh
- Sansa kills Miranda, not Ramsay. And she kills her by pure chance
- Theon snaps out of Reek
- Both scape, only to be captured by Stannis
- Stannis marches and takes Winterfell, gets killed shortly after by Brienne
- Arya kills pedotrant, is forced to get rid off Needle
- Daenerys meets the Dothraki, resolves going to Westeros and / or shaking Meeren altogether. No diharrea is involved, but of course a dragon roar ends the season and fade to black sequence
- Dorne keeps being boring, showrunners botch the "fire and blood" line
- Sam is sent to Oldtown under Jon's orders
- The Night Watch stabs him, ending the season in the most retarded, pointless cliffhanger ever
I am glad to see that I am not the only crazy guy that thinks that an animated adaptation of game of thrones would rolfstomp the TV series and has the potential to be even better than the books.
Huge sense of scale + re-write by competent scriptwritters = WIN

I think I may dislike that person more than Linda.
And that Is Winter Coming website looks awful.
There's another website with that combination of words that's pretty awful, too.

My name is reek. It rhymes with too young.I read this as cockless
That all sounds reasonable. I hope that Arya isn't punished by being blinded. Only because they'll probably spend 3 to 4 episodes next season resolving that before she gets her sight back and then is sent to Oldtown or wherever.
At this point I rather they skip that and launch into her book 6 material for next season.

Man fuck Olly, what an awful character
He's there for one and only one reason and next season we won't see him anymore

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
Casting twin babies doesn't mean twin characters in the show. TV/movies almost always use twins for a single baby character so they can split the film time, as infants are only allowed to be used in filming like 2 hours a day or something. It's very likely Roose's kid.

He'll be there when Jon walks back and is all I was only mostly dead.
They could also be bringing Val into the show, so they can start the season with sending Sam to Old Town with the switched babies.

he'll die at some point, his end game is irrelevant
He'll die of old age, while sitting on the throne.

Ye of Little faith for little finger
I thought about the entire Linda situation and it's weird because it seems like she's much worse in people's descriptions than she comes off when seen in person.
Granted, I only watch her and Elio's videos on youtube but she's really not bad in them, maybe a little stuck up and overly critical but often quite reasonable and she does give explanations why she doesn't like things.
The things she writes on twitter and elsewhere and her choice of words seems to be awful quite often but I think that's just a "superfan on the internet", it happens all the time, people like that take things too seriosuly and flip out over nothing, for all I know she could be a pleasant person to be around in real life.
She's certainly no angel but I'm not sure what's worse, her behaviour or people compiling lists of things she's said and done over several years.
In this case I see her point and understand why she was pissed, spoiling the novels in the bonus material to the episode was unnecessary and rude. Like they said, book readers went out of their way to preserve things like Ned's death, the spoiler was out there in book form but no one went out of their way to tell show watchers that it happens. We still do it here with the separate threads, so for the producers then intentionally spoiling a future book event in an interview is a shitty thing to do.

Book readers went out of their way to not spoil shit? What little bubble does she live in? Asoiaf readers were always making puns and in jokes about future events and characters.

A couple clips of Kit Harington on Kimmel last night:
- Kit Harington Judges Jon Snow Impersonators
- Kit Harington on Game of Thrones Battle Scenes & The White Walkers
- Kit Harington Judges Jon Snow Impersonators
- Kit Harington on Game of Thrones Battle Scenes & The White Walkers
And then Jon sentences him to be hanged, drawn and quartered.
And of course
OYSTERS, CLAMS AND COCKLEESSSSSS
Making puns and in jokes is not the same thing as outright spoiling stuff, show only watchers usually don't get it unless it's pointed out to them, that's the entire point of an in joke, you don't get it unless you're already in in it.

I'm sure no tv only viewer could possibly decipher the da Vinci code of genius that is "lol red wedding will be a bloody good time"
Or "ned stark sure loses his head near the end"
And similar wink wink nudge nudge puns.

Rather they SHOULD blind her but take some inspiration from a recent Netflix masterpiece
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFYFh8w4758
Don't make her a victim though and turn it tragic even though that's how the books handle it
There should be one Stark at least whose pulled up his/her bootstraps since Sansa was squandered.
Jon counts too, he's a true Stark after all

Ok, here are the current standings. I may have missed a ton of posts, so if you aren't on the list make sure you include either "#teamOllyKills" or "#teamOllySaves" in your post so I can count it.

THE STAKES
I'm in #teamOllySaves.
They've been too heavy handed with it, so I think it's a bait and switch.
Finale Speculation
I believe they'll remind everyone in the "Previously on" part how Bran Wargs into Summer. Then after Jon is stabbed it'll go black, we'll hear stuttered breath, then "Ghost, to me...Ghost" Then we'll see the wall from Ghost's eyes. - end season

Probably the best way to do it. Doesn't ruin the mystery...
The only problem is that

Also,
We can has Daredevil Arya?
I'm honestly shocked there hasn't been a cross promotion announced.
Can you imagine Assassin's Creed: Braavos? I mean it will be terrible thanks to Ubisoft but still...
I swear it's been stuck in my head since last week like an annoying music
WHY
Sometimes I even say it out loud...
