Season five isn't winning me over so far. In this episode, a lot happens, yet it feels like nothing significant occurs. Everyone talks, but few get to the point. No one wants Brienne around, so she decides to fulfill her promises regardless. Daenerys is stuck in Meereen, and after the Wall's events, Jaime heads off to Dorne. Honestly, it’s a bit of a snooze.

The second episode is almost identical to the first, which is not very good for 100 minuntes of pure running time so far. There’s too much ballast and scenes that are unnecessarily stretched – stagnation and dialogue filler on all fronts. Perhaps only The Wall is more alive (a new commander) and Mereen is also undergoing more significant shifts as Daenerys knocks for the first time.
