I'm glad the Night King got owned because he had to be a big dramatic rear end and make his zombie army just stop and watch.

Because the Lord of Light really cares about which feudal lord rules from the Iron Throne and it's super important to the world now that the invincible zombie army disappeared

the white walkers/others were clearly on strike from their job because they didnt want to have to go on a work trip away from home . sure they showed up but they refused to lift a finger the entire battle and let arya just run past them because they hated their boss

Arya probably skips Winterfell and goes straight to King's Landing if Jon isn't there.

GRRM has a hard on for Scouring of the Shire so it does fit in. I just didn’t think the resolution to the main story would be ... that.

I enjoyed this episode, aside from the difficult yo follow actions as people have said. I've actually liked most of the season except for Bran, who's been a pretty poo poo character and no one seems to push him for more knowledge no or insight on what they're facing. That's all it comes down to, NK was never going to talk or reveal much himself, only Bran or maybe Sam could fill in the gaps and thus far, NOPE.

Maybe Bran really is a secret heel, because he probably knew enough to save a lot of lives (danger of the crypts, adjusting war strategy, etc.).

The opposite, actually. The live HBO broadcast on TV was ultra dark depending on setup, while downloadable versions that pull from higher quality streams and played on a computer monitor may have not had those issues.

that was the worst battle episode in the show's history

blackwater, hardhome, castle black, bastards were all better

castle black especially was a much better shot siege. you actually had a sense of what the gently caress was going on
