After people complained about Dany getting yet another episode ending, I went back and looked at the distribution, with help from some Reddit that listed all the ends of the first 5 seasons:
1 - Jaime pushes Bran b/c B sees Jaime w/Cersei.
2 - Bran wakes up.
3 - Arya trains.
4 - Tyrion arrested.
5 - Jaime fights.
6 - Dany watches as her husband kills her brother.
7 - Cersei arrests a traitor.
8 - Cersei helps convince Sansa to tell her dad to confess.
9 - Cersei, Sansa, and Arya witness an execution.
10 - Dany’s dragons are born.=4 Cersei, 2 Sansa/Dany/Jaime/Arya/Bran, 1 Tyrion
1 - Arya travels with a king’s bastard.
2 - Jon is knocked out.
3 - Arya and others captured.
4 - Davos witnesses Melisandre giving birth.
5 - Arya has someone killed.
6 - Dany’s dragons taken.

1 - Dany saved.
2 - Jaime captured along w/Brienne.
3 - Jaime de-handed.
4 - Dany leads slaves.
5 - Tyrion and Cersei’s weddings are arranged.
6 - Jon kisses his lady.
7 - Jaime saves Brienne.
8 - Sam kills zombie.
9 - RW.
10 - Dany is celebrated. = Dany/Jaime 3, Jon/Tyrion/Cersei 1
1 - Arya kills.
2 - Cersei and Jaime’s son dies and Tyrion is arrested.
3 - Dany has her champion kill someone.
4 - Zombie baby
5 - Jon burns
6 - Tyrion demands trial by combat.
7 - Sansa watches as LF kills her aunt.
8 - Tyrion’s champion falls, and he is to die.
9 - Jon leaves the Wall.
10 - Arya leaves Westeros. = Tyrion 3, Arya/Jon 2, Sansa/Dany/Jaime/Cersei 1
1 - Jon kills
2 - Dany’s dragon flies away
3 - Tyrion taken
4 - Attack on Dany’s city
5 - Tyrion and Jorah attacked and Jorah gets diseased
6 - Worst scene ever
7 - Cersei’s arrest
8 - Jon has a big fight

I hope they play Kiss It Better in the finale. I don't care if it wasn't released yet in the middle ages.

George R.R. Martin Reveals Brienne’s Backstory
Quote:
|
George Martin officially confirmed a direct link between his main book series and the Tales of Dunk and Egg, a proposed series of 12 (or so) novellas that follow Ser Duncan the Tall, a hedge knight trying to make a living roughly a century before A Game of Thrones, and his squire, Aegon Targaryen (called Egg by his friends and family), who will one day go on to become king and the father of Mad King Aerys (that’s the crazy chap who killed Lord Eddard Stark’s [Sean Bean] father and older brother, helping to instigate the rebellion that would overthrow the Targaryen dynasty). It turns out that Brienne, Maid of Tarth (Gwendoline Christie), who has proven herself to be the best swordsman in all of the Seven Kingdoms (by besting Ser Jaime Lannister [Nikolaj Coster-Waldau] in combat), is the descendant of Dunk, a man who was never really knighted but would nonetheless go on to become the lord commander of King Aegon’s Kingsguard (a position that Jaime held up until this week’s installment).

That's more her ancestral background than her backstory.
I mean, I don't consider what my grandparents did in their younger years to be my backstory.

I totally see GRRM just abandoning ASOIAF for stuff like Dunk & Egg. As sad as it is.

That would be a great. Love this kind of twist.
But tbh Arya has nothing to do in KL anymore, The Lannisters are doing a good job at destroying themselves, there's nothing for her there. She needs to do a quick stop at the Riverlands (some revenge, maybe rekindle with Nymeria) then head to Winterfell to help her brother and sister for the future apocalypse.

Ratings for “Blood of My Blood” outranked the episodes of Penny Dreadful, The Carmichael Show, Silicon Valley, Veep, House of Lies and The Girlfriend Experience that aired the same night. The episode nonetheless marks a low point in viewership for the season thus far. With only 6.71 million views, it’s the first time live viewership for season 6 has fallen below 7 million.
However, the reason for this dip may have less to do with the episode itself and more with the fact that “Blood of My Blood” aired on Memorial Day weekend. As we’ve previously noted, ratings have a tendency to slump during that holiday and we can remain optimistic that next week’s episode, “The Broken Man” will see an upturn.

Not
Septa Unella chaperoning Margaery
.  She's ruining all the fun. I wanted Margaery to scheme with Olenna so bad.
At least talk about Margaery's end game, so Olenna can chill and let her play her game in peace.
Btw Natalie Dormer did a really good job in the last episode when she's on the stairs of the Sept and her dad, her grandma and Jaime show up with all the Tyrell soldiers and her face is like "damn it, I had this handled!", "what are you doing?"  Like I think it's so clear that she can take care of business alone and her plan is great tbh. She got Tommen away from Cersei's influence, she got rid of Jaime, she consolidated her power base and no blood was spilt. This is good scheming right here.
Oh and special shout out to Olenna and her hand fan, she's literally leading the army with her fan  , discreetly giving signals to Mace Tyrell who's just a puppet.

Dany's storyline has been in an infinite loop since s3. Her ass better get to Westeros ASAP. I was just exhausted and rolling my eyes at her "epic" speech at the end of this ep.

Jack Bender kinda confirms in this interview that there will be only 7 episodes next season
Quote:
Are you coming back next season?
I don’t know the answer to that. They’re only doing seven [episodes], and they’ve got their regulars who have done it forever.
