I still think it was winds of winter. The entire set up with everyone getting ready, the music, and the giant explosion. And the rest is a fog, but it was great.
Please the last scene with Dany finally finally setting sail to Westeros. -

Blackwater.
Winds Of Winter was full of nonsense, like the rest of Season 6, starting with Lancel being sent to get Cersei as if he could actually force her to come, then following a random kid instead just so we could see the wildfire beneath the Sept. Then we got abberations like Arya killing Walder Frey, Sam arriving untroubled at Oldtown, Daenerys abandoning her secret lover for no good reason but keeping a convicted regicide, Bran streaming the rest of the Tower of Joy fan video instead of something that could actually matter, a bastard made king in spite of being the lousiest military commander ever and a deserter of the Night's Watch and I could go on.
Winds of Winter was full of emotional, idiot pleasing stuff.
Long may she reign

I think the only valid points are:
- Lancel following the child (but some people said it could be because the child was out of place, possibly one of the little birds, so he was probably going to where Cersei was hiding instead of the red keep, hence the line "The longer you wait the worth it will be for you", as there's no reason to say it to a child and yet it's just a theory)
- Jon Snow KITN. The books have proper setup for this, the show lacks it completely, good point.
Now for the rest of the points: - Sam in Oldtown - we don't know how they got there, so it's possible they were hiding, and that the rest of his family delayed his dad on purpose. Seriously we've got absolutely no details about this one.
- Arya killing Walder- the scenes in the show are not chronological. (e.g. in "No One" the Jon and Sansa plot spreads over several weeks, Arya's plot over a few hours). So she probably just got there a few months later and planned it on carefully. Yea her faceless man training conclusion was cr@p (Huzzah you killed your co worker and disobeyed us all the way, you are now one of us!!), but given that silly conclusion and assuming she can now use faces, ep10 makes perfect sense, and the nonsense that is ep8 should not be taken into account.
- What convicted regicide did Dany keep? If you mean Tyrion then it is known his trial was bull$hit, and it's not like Dany intends to politely talk the royal family out of the red keep and everybody lives happily ever after. The point would be valid for someone like pre-Blackwater Stannis, but Dany has surrounded herself by shady people since day one (Jorah the slaver, the Dothraki). And about getting rid of Daario, well she said she intends to marry poltically in Westeros, and that she needs someone to keep the peace in the Bay of Dragons. so there's nothing wrong with that.

Oh and I forgot about Bran.
- We don't know if that's alll he saw.
- Do we really know how he decides what he will see? I mean the last time he went alone he randomly got to the Night's king despite not wanting it.
- I really don't like Bran's arc, but from day one whatever he sees is plot convenient.

The Winds of Winter (best
ever
, not only on Game of Thrones).
Green Trial, Tower of Joy, King in the North, Hand of the Queen, Daenerys sets sail and also every single scene was great, plus it being the best composed episode of all times (IMO). Perfect.
