    Best episode of anything ever

    As long as you've been keeping track of this show since season 4 or 5, you will agree this is the best episode ever.

    Wow

    Simply Astonishig. The music is just perfect. A perfect almost 25 minute start sequence like I have never seen in my life.

    Game of Thrones turns around once again.

    Incredible!

    This was the best episode, if I dare say, of the entire show. From the piano/cello duet that is throughout, to every persons part of the story. So so good.

    • Trivia
      The opening scene of this episode featured the first-ever use of piano in the show's soundtrack. Composer Ramin Djawadi said he wanted the audience to feel something is out of the ordinary right at the beginning and make them suspicious and pay closer attention to the tension of the scene.
    • Goofs
      When Daenerys sets sails to Westeros, the direction of the Targaryen flag on Grey Worm's ship is inconsistent with the sails.
    • Quotes

      Sansa Stark: Jon, a raven came from the Citadel. A white raven. Winter is here.

      Jon Snow: Well, father always promised, didn't he?

    • Crazy credits
      In the opening credits, the Direwolf absent since the beginning of season 3 has returned on Winterfell, replacing the Flayed Man.
