Goofs

Tyrion tells Jon there are one million people in King's Landing. In Game of Thrones: The Bear and the Maiden Fair, Jaime said the city had a population of approximately half a million people. While the number of the city residents could have increased during the two decades that passed since Aerys's death, it is unlikely that it increased so much.

Quotes

Tyrion Lannister: We are a group of people who do not like one another, as this recent demonstration has shown. We have suffered at each other's hands. We have lost people we love at each other's hands. If all we wanted was more of the same, there would be no need for this gathering. We are entirely capable of waging war against each other without meeting face-to-face.
Cersei Lannister: So instead, we should settle our differences and live together in harmony for the rest of our days?
Tyrion Lannister: We all know that will never happen.
Cersei Lannister: Then why are...

User Reviews

A few quick words on "Game of Thrones" Season 7 (2017)

After finishing its seventh season, I've reached the point where I'd name "Game of Thrones" as the best fantasy I've ever read or seen. It's also among the best television I've ever seen, period. I'd cheerfully rate this penultimate season a perfect 10.

I do understand some of the criticisms I've read from other fans. Yes, this shorter, more eventful, seven-episode arc could seem a little rushed when compared with prior seasons. And certain plot points in the last several episodes here are easy to nitpick.

But I can't give less than a perfect rating to a show that I enjoyed this much. Season 7 added great action and special effects, lots of momentum, frightening horror, and some long-awaited conclusions to story arcs that began back in Season 1. And the show still has the best dialogue of any current television show that I'm aware of, usually supported by terrific acting.

I won't say more for fear of spoilers. But I obviously loved this season.
