Some final thoughts/questions:
1. Why is there a Night's Watch now? (even John asks)
2. So the North gets freedom and the other 6 are ok with being subjugated by a single monarch?
3. Grey Worm lets both John and Tyrion live after what they did? He then says he will leave their fates to a bunch of white people he doesn't know from a bunch of places he doesn't know?
4. Since when was discovery a thing for Arya? TTBOMK she's never mentioned interest in it once in the entire series.
5. Bran, really? He suffered difficulties early on, but for the past 2, maybe 3 or 4 seasons all he has done is be a bump on a log. We don't know anything about his desires. His opinions on governing, wealth, etc, etc.
6. The whole, "he wrote a book called song of ice and fire" felt corny. Reminded me of a Family Guy episode where Peter made fun of movies which use their titles somewhere in the dialogue (Clear and Present Danger)
7. No further explanation of why Danny went mad98. Tyrion forgives Bronn for hitting him and threatening to kill Jamie and appoints him to the council?
9. Guess the whole true and rightful heir thing Varys was talking about came to a big nothing.
I was fully expecting another Stark to die, either Sansa or Bran. I did pull for them though, but felt like giving all of them peace and happiness at the end was a big cop out.
