The episode when seen in itself was good; production value was huge, amazing CGI, setpieces, acting, everything top notch. Though there is a mixed feeling, that many already mentioned. The Night King and the army of the dead being killed off this easy after over seven seasons of build up is disappointing. There was all this fear and dread for years. The show was even introduced with this threat, and characters make a point of the fight for the throne being pointless compared to this. And then it ends so easily. The other thing is I expected more to die after such an emotional second episode. I do wonder though, there’s three long episodes left, surely they won’t all deal with squabbling against Cersei...
