Give me Wednesday and Mad Sweeney on a buddy trip, in actual war with Mr. World, and you might have something.

I had no idea that was the season finale, and I can't believe we had a "filler" episode with that Essie stuff when there was only 8 episodes.
With the war actually starting, I will have to tune into it next season and I am looking forward to it, but I probably won't be able to last another season as slow as this one.

I generally agree as well.
Yeah, considering the amount of flack GoT and TWD get for 'filler' I'm surprised at the forgiveness here of an 8 episode season that probably only had story development in about half of them
Thats about the slowest burn I've ever seen.
