edit: my god, people praise TWD in that thread for how awesome the story line is and how great of a job they do, and GoT has one semi-slow episode and everyone is all over them.. does not compute. I guess when the bar is set so high.. I am not sure what people expected for a season opener, honestly we got more than I thought we would. Doran Martell, the ruler of Dorne was assassinated, how is that not a massive plot point in itself? I hate to see Hotah get his like that though, we never even get to see how bad ass of a fighter he most likely is..

Be fair, there is as much scorn as praise in the TWD thread, dating all the way back to the second season.
My biggest problem is that it felt like a 48 minute season 5 recap rather than a season 6 premier.
Completely forgot about the Dorne twist, though. That was definitely a new direction and some worthy advancement.
