I am telling you, after last night, I may be done with Game of Thrones.
Just going to say - the final scene - the one character I cared the most about.

Rule 1 of Game of Thrones:
Never begin caring for a character!

Exactly the reason why Game of Thrones not for me.
Either I would care ... and get depressed. Or I stay indifferent ... and get bored.

I only care about the damn dragons. Throughout the series, I've been pleased at how Dany raised them and cared for them.... until she locked up 2 of them over a hunting accident.
Then I was pretty annoyed with Dany in the final episode. She keeps telling Drogon (the dragon who saved her from being mutilated) that they need to get back home. And I'm like hold up! How many times did that dragon get SPEARED protecting YOU before he flew your ass out of there!?!? At least FOUR times from what I saw, and Dany yanked one out before they took off from the stadium.
And she wants her injured dragon to fly her all the way back home at her whim.
Apparently she thought she earned enough frequent flyer mines in that one flight to earn her another one

It's true. And I knew something was coming - because anytime something goes "right" for someone, is an indication that their demise is at hand.

Well, to be fair - she considered herself their mother. So it's just like as if she was scolding her children to do what she said. She recognized that her city is on the brink of civil war and needed to be back there before she lost complete control. (And one can't free the other two, if she isn't taken back home).

Well my point was more focused on the fact that the dragon is injured. She wasn't giving him time to rest and heal at least

Well, she did show signs of concern ("It must hurt" or whatever she said). But I think she knew she had to get back to her city.

Four times, Tymber... maybe five... he would could have bled to death flying her straight back.
I think Dany's become so wrapped up in the politics of her newfound rulership, it's kind of swayed her priorities when it's come to the dragons lately. I know her intentions are good. She's just sorely distracted.
I just wanted to add for those who may not have seen it, that Timmain made another appearance in 2:22 of the following video.
NOTE: You may not want to watch after that if you're not one to watch quicky sex scenes

Don't give up Jon Snow just yet. I'm not sure he is gone. Just the fact that Melisandre returned right before is a clue, we know her kind can resurrect people, and don't forget that he may be able to send his soul out like Bran, and if the wild theory ( that I like ) that he is part Targeryen is true, burning him may resurrect him I don't think Jon is gone.
Not Stannis either, we didn't see it.
But poor Myrcella is dead, I'm almost sure, so sad.

Meh... she's got two more... Don't care about the dragon and it'll be just fine... probably grow another head or get twice as strong to boot... C'mon, I haven't even seen this season and can see that the 'Game' in the game of thrones is for the viewer/reader to keep their emotions in check....

While I really enjoy the books, the show is guilty of massive shark-jumping. They kill off charas, have women and children raped and abused just for the mere shock value. They show tits because they are supposed to the same way the Walking Dead shows zombies as disgusting as possible, for the visual satisfaction of the not-too demanding viewers. It's annoying and insulting. There are gaping plot holes, there are so much actions that don't make sense. I don't know if I'll watch the next season, too.
And Jon is not dead, of course. He is the kid of Nedd's sister and Rhaegar, without him there would be no reason to show bits of the Night Watch, he wears a thick plot armour. In the books he wargs into Ghost, in the show Melisandre is probably going to revive him (the reason why she had to abandon Stannis)

AFTER she brings Jon back. Get him back on his feet and declare him Azor Ahai. Then let Davos go to town on the witch!

Poor Mel, no one likes (or wants) her*, even though she always shows off her boobies
*except Stannis, but no one likes him either

Stannis didn't like her either, by the end there. The way he shoulder checked out of the way while she was trying to cheer him up about The Sacrifice was a thing of beauty.

I didn't watch most of the episodes last season (it's close to impossible to watch the show in China), however I did watch the last two episodes and those were so stupid, I'm not bothering with this new season. The story around Cercei doesn't make the tiniest little bit of sense, it was so stupid, it was insulting. And there is absolutely no way this is going to play out the same in the books.

It can't play out the same as in the books- because the TV show has moved faster than the books. The books for the upcoming seasons aren't written yet-- ergo, the show has to make it up!
I thought Cercei's actions were all in character, so I didn't mind them being dumb and self destructive. She has to trigger her own downfall anyhow-- and we only have a season or two left.
