Overall, I was disappointed in this episode.  First, I could barely see what was happening even with all the lights off.  I understand weather and light affect visibility during warfare and the Night King was using that to his advantage, but this is a TV show that relies upon the audience being able to see the show.  The editing was too choppy in addition to the scenes being too dark so I couldn't tell who was who or what the hell was going on.  I expected a better defense/battle plan.  Did they even have a military technical adviser?  Seemed like they could have sorely used one.  The Arya Hail Mary ending was pretty anti-climatic for me.

Speaking of Arya, her sex scene was the most disturbing scene I've watched on GOT.  We've practically watched her grow up from a little girl.  I was sitting there like, "Noooooooooo Arya, don't take your shirt off!"

Yeah, I had trouble seeing most of it too. Also, I was too lazy to change the settings on my screen because that would mean I would have to set the back again.

And I agree about the Arya scene. Maise Williams is 22, but she looks a LOT younger.

Could pretty much write a book on all of the strategy and tactics errors in the show. And what's up with sending the Dothraki's in head-on? Haven't they heard of 'flank' yet? Or maybe they "flunked flank", eh:
