Plots(1)

Summers span decades. Winters can last a lifetime. And the struggle for the Iron Throne continues. It stretches from the south, where heat breeds plots, lusts and intrigues, to the vast and savage eastern lands, where a young queen raises an army. All the while, in the frozen north, an 800-foot wall of ice precariously protects the war-ravaged kingdom from the dark forces that lie beyond. Kings and queens, knights and renegades, liars, lords and honest men... all play the 'Game of Thrones.' (Home Box Office)

The Door (2016) (S06E05) 

English I really liked that series at the time... The first Braavosan I saw was teaching Arya how to swordfight, and she has probably advanced to a higher level by now and is becoming a ninja, I guess based on her training. The events in King's Landing are starting to annoy me, it's such nonsense that it's almost hard to watch. Thank you to the creators for the detailed medical scene, and I hope next time they come up with a prostate examination. ()

Blood of My Blood (2016) (S06E06) 

English Episode six - that was really a disaster. The plot didn't make any sense at all, it seemed like the logic committed suicide for good, and when I try to write something about what's happening in Králově Přístavišti, only expressions that are off-limits for people under eighteen come to mind. But I have to praise two things. Little Sam looked several times like Petr Čtvrtníček and Daenerys disappeared behind a rock to pull out a dragon from under her robe. Furthermore, she managed (I don't know when) to turn the unpredictable creature into a completely obedient pet. As I said, logic is a thing of the past. ()

The Broken Man (2016) (S06E07) 

English The creators casted my favorite actor Ian McShane in the series, which excited me for a few seconds until I found out what character he plays, then they excited me again by not playing it anymore. That was a nice twist. I hoped that the logic was just seriously injured after his suicide attempt in the previous episode, but it was a vain hope, he is truly dead. And more and more stupid talk in the capital city, that's a disaster. ()

No One (2016) (S06E08) 

English I wouldn't even dare to guess that the creators could come up with an even worse plot than in the previous episode, but they did. The dead logic is slowly decomposing and from that stench, such gems are hatching in the minds of the writers as the release of Řekotočí without a fight, an athletic decathlon with a freshly gutted stomach, and the unconventional use of a dragon to carry out a landing in a besieged city instead of burning the attacking fleet. The sixth season derailed right from the beginning, but its inertia allows it to continue causing further damage. ()

Battle of the Bastards (2016) (S06E09) 

English In the ninth episode, I give my record rating of this season because the creators packed two battles into one episode, so something finally happened, but at the same time, I cannot add any additional star because there were again a lot of nonsenses. For example: Why didn't I see those bulldozers that someone used to pile up corpses into neat heaps during the battle? Why did Daenerys burn half of the city before destroying the enemy ships? Why did Jon behave like an idiot in the battle? Yara and Theon sailed from the Iron Islands with a hundred ships, if I am modest, it would take 25 men/women to operate one ship, so the fleet has at least 2500 men/women. In that case, the Greyjoy family is the most powerful in Westeros because I assume that the majority of the population stayed with Euron. I would summarize Sansa's speech to Jon like this: "Why don't you ask me for advice when I know nothing about war?" ()

The Winds of Winter (2016) (S06E10) 

English I'm sorry, but that series without logic simply doesn't work for me. Considering that I am not as emotionally inclined as hardened northerners, the scene with the installation of the new king in the North did not touch or impress me in any way. Once again, I have many questions about the episode, but I will limit myself to three: How did Monster Gregor get into Tommen's chamber? Where was the king's guard? Whom did Arya kill to have a substitute face to murder Walder Frey? ()

Season 7 (2017) (S07) 

English I’m ashamed to admit that I was hoping for improvement after the previous season. Mea culpa. It really puzzles me why House Greyjoy doesn't rule Westeros when it is clearly the most numerous. Even though Yara and Theon sail away with a hundred ships, Euron's fleet fills the entire horizon, plus his ships sail around the continent at such a speed that Euron must have seen himself from behind several times. Only Daenerys' dragons can match that kind of speed, except they’re flying, so.. I didn't understand what happened to Littlefinger's brain (Alzheimer's? Dementia?) because his scheming got really lame and transparent, which is a shame. ()

Dragonstone (2017) (S07E01) 

English Oh no, I don't see any improvement compared to the previous season so far. As Arya continuously removes other people's faces from her head, I remembered Fantomas. I was truly impressed by how Cersei decorated the throne room and the royal guard, Samwell's studies at the Citadel, but especially by the number of ships Euron has. How is it possible that the Greyjoys don't rule in Westeros, considering how few of them there are? How was Varys able to return to Daenerys? ()

Stormborn (2017) (S07E02) 

English During the second episode of the seventh season, I caught myself laughing quite frequently. Terrible creatures appeared there. Experts at King's Landing needed the entire day and night to design and produce an anti-aircraft, sorry, anti-dragon scorpion (not to be confused with the Czech-origin submachine gun, which would be completely unsuitable for fighting dragons). Daenerys' alliance's offensive plans were almost overshadowed by the magnitude of the landing at Leyte, and Samwell Tarly simply has to be connected to the Boltons of Dreadfort. Furthermore, what does Varys think about the night of the eunuch's passion? ()

The Queen's Justice (2017) (S07E03) 

English The third episode was no longer just illogical, it was a disaster. Not even the Kraken from Clash of the Titans (1981) was as terrifying at sea as Euron and his vast fleet using some undisclosed form of hyperpropulsion. Whether this thing works in any way, it is compatible even with an ordinary foot soldier, as demonstrated by Jaime leading the Blitzkrieg army, something that would bitterly make Dolfi envious. Poor Sansa, as if it wasn't enough that Ramsay did whatever he wanted with her, now she will find out that her brother recorded everything, that's a blow. ()

The Spoils of War (2017) (S07E04) 

English The creators, while writing the fourth episode, once again returned to their proven conversations about nothing, in which Littlefinger excels, in order to find something funny for the viewers. They set up Arya with her Needle in a practice duel against Brienne with her one-and-a-half-handed sword, but Arya, true to her Stark nature, calmly deflects the blows. And now, attention! Spoiler alert!!! Guess who didn't drown? And the Emmy for the best TV series survival goes to... Bronn! Well, that was a surprise. ()

Eastwatch (2017) (S07E05) 

English No! Seriously? I had completely given up hope of saving the one-armed bandit, but it worked out despite the full bladder. That was a pleasant surprise. I realized that I was too much of a troublemaker, but I can't understand where the Lannisters found asbestos to make their banners. I understand that the creators wanted even the biggest fool to understand whose army lost its supplies through dragon fire, but should I really believe that wood and meat burned while the canvas didn't? Gilly is the only one who managed to surprise me, that clever bitch. Until now, I thought Jon was a Targaryen bastard, now it's clear that he is legitimate. Isn't that amazing? ()

Beyond the Wall (2017) (S07E06) 

English The sixth episode "impressed" me with wonderfully written dialogues, to the point where I wanted to tell Jon and Jorah that if the sword is indeed available, I would shoot it on e-bay, not to mention the terribly "funny" interjection by Ohař-Thormund. However, the march to the pole was indeed interesting, I even had the impression of seeing Roald Amundsen twice, and I couldn't miss the beautiful homage to the first marathon runner by the creators. Malíček disappointed me, his intrigues would confuse only Dontos Rudý, and the dragon had bad luck that the King hit him directly into the engine. I lived in complete deception the whole time, I thought that it constantly freezes north of the Wall, but now I know that lakes only freeze when surrounded (WTF?). After pulling the dragon out of the lake, it finally hit me, the King is the Lich King, his undead are Catastrophe (Scourge), and Game of Thrones is turning into World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King. ()

The Dragon And The Wolf (2017) (S07E07) 

English If only the storyline of the seventh episode wasn't so painfully transparent. Even in the seventh season, some characters driven by the "excellent" script think it's okay to make a deal with Cersei? Congratulations on the prize for naivety. I really enjoyed Bronn, who, while looking from the walls at the arrival of the light cavalry, speaks of a disadvantage:-) However, Brandon Stark provided the humorous top scene in his conversation with Samwell Tarly: "I see things that have happened in the past, things that are happening now all over the world. Why did you come to Winterfell?" That was great work by the screenwriters, who immediately contradicted the first statement with the second one, someone should appreciate that :-) ()

Season 8 (2019) (S08) 

English The plot of Season 8 was extremely weak. It didn't surprise me after the previous shortcomings, but I still thought that the writers were taking a one-year break for a reason. This makes it seem like they just needed more time to totally twist logic to suit their needs. Disappointing, but at least it's over. ()

Winterfell (2019) (S08E01) 

English After several failures in the seventh season, I didn't even believe that I could give the opening episode of the final series a maximum of three pieces. It happened, but I have great concerns that it is due to the absence of action scenes that the screenwriting duo absolutely cannot handle. This time, the plot was limited only to conversations (mostly in Winterfell), and although I wasn't interested in the dialogues occasionally, it wasn't horrifying. Cersei must be a wild one in bed, poor Euron was so engrossed in his antics that he didn't even notice he lost three ships. Who his soldiers and sailors were immersed in remains a mystery. ()

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (2019) (S08E02) 

English In the second episode, the action practically boiled down to one defloration, the rest of the plot was once again limited to dialogues, which, according to my previous comment, should guarantee the episode three stars, but... The "unforced and random" encounters and subsequent "elaborate" conversations started to annoy me very quickly, and Brienina's passport forgery topped it off. ()

The Long Night (2019) (S08E03) Boo!

English Dynamic duo Benioff/Weiss once again presented their concept of warfare tactics to the audience, and this time I almost cried out of despair. I won't go into all the nonsense they brought into the battle frenzy, as KM Phoenix has already thoroughly analyzed it. I will only state that the entire battle gave me an experience comparable to a midnight fight between rival African-American gangs in a tunnel (I occasionally caught a glimpse of white, and sometimes teeth would flash). I think the screenwriters would have done better if, after the battle, two guards met on the walls and exchanged sentences such as: "That was quite a battle yesterday, wasn't it?" "Oh, definitely! And did you see how they slaughtered the Dothraki right at the beginning?" Well, it could go on like this for an hour, and I would have a much better understanding of what was happening. I hope there will be some clarification in the fourth episode because I have a feeling that some long-serving characters have died, but due to inadequate lighting, I'm not certain. ()

The Last of the Starks (2019) (S08E04) 

English The absolutely crucial advantage of the fourth episode was that I didn't have to listen to a radio play, this time the creators provided me with visuals in addition to sound. That's it for the advantages. The absence of impenetrable darkness revealed to me a whole series of inconsistencies - for example, I don't understand why someone would allow an army armed with long-range heavy weapons (maybe even just a regular bow) to board, and why this enemy wouldn't take advantage of this situation (I doubt Tyrion went far beyond the walls with his useless advice). I was also intrigued that in this episode there was a deflowering, but if I carefully followed the course of the previous seven seasons, there can't be any more of them. ()

The Bells (2019) (S08E05) 

English So, I really don't know, such a bummer, like a mouth after the rain and no hits? The reason? So that the destruction of the city could go according to the misguided duo of screenwriters? The plot was partly laughable and partly tearjerking. The conclusion is at the door, so the creators indulged in the deaths of key characters. Cersei refused to surrender, and so King's Landing learned what Dresden was like, and a sensitive viewer could shed a tear or two. ()
