The House of Black and White (S05E02)

The fifth season hasn't convinced me much so far, even in the second episode, a lot happens, only to later realize that nothing really significant happened. Everyone talks, but few talk about the matter at hand, nobody cares about Brienne, so she decides to fulfill her promise against everyone's wishes. Daenerys is stuck in Meereen, and to make things warmer after the events at the Wall, Jaime leaves for Dorne. Hmmm, a bit boring. (14.12.2017)

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. (31.05.2017)
