The Red Woman (S06E01)

Season 6 kicked off with numerous logical inconsistencies. I was especially disappointed not to see the miraculous somersault that Theon and Sansa must have pulled off during their suicidal jump from the castle walls, as they escaped without a scratch or a compound fracture. Brienne, yet again, proved she’s guided by some sort of GPS, conveniently finding her target in the middle of the forest right on time. And that final scene? It left me feeling like my brain had just been assaulted. (12/15/2017)

In terms of screenwriting, it's a very well-balanced episode where the talking and action are just about 50-50. The big upside is that the story's intricacies pick up exactly where they left off, and that applies to all of them, without exception, so, there aren’t any new question marks, at least for now. The final scene is great thanks to the work of the make-up and visual effects artists. (06/05/2017)
