Sophie Turner blamed Kit Harington for the infamous appearance of a cup of coffee Game of thrones.
As the Stark and Targaryen armies celebrated their victory against the king of the night during the first moments of the episode "The Last of the Starks", a cup of coffee was seen on the table of Jon Snow (Harington) and Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke).
The blunder quickly made headlines around the world. Many people have wondered why no one was working on this multi-million dollar issue.
We will tell you what is true. You can form your own view.

Addressing Conan O'Brien, Turner – who played Sansa Stark in the series – knew exactly whose fault it was.
"I hear that every day of my life, this cup of coffee, so it's nice to know that the cup of coffee is more successful than the last season," she joked.
"The cup of coffee was where Kit [Harington’s] the chair was. First I blamed Emilia [Clarke]but I do not think Emilia would do that.
"Kit is lazy and I think he would have done it. It was in front of Kit's chair and then, obviously, he moved and that picture was taken; it was as if she were in my place, but I was not there.
"It was Kit. It was 100% Kit."
After the broadcast of the episode, the producers removed the coffee cup so that people who would listen to it later do not see the latte in Westeros.
1/73 73. Season seven, episode five: Eastwatch
There must be a loser. "Eastwatch" throws one of the most important pieces of news in the series, Jon's true lineage, as well as many beautiful meetings. This is the best example of the series' rush in recent years, with unpredictability giving way to a conventional plot.
HBO
2/73 72. Season four, episode three: Breaker of Chains

HBO
20/73 54. Season Two, Episode 1: The North Remembers
In the first game of season two, we meet Stannis at Dragonstone, then Joffrey orders a huge infanticide. It was vaguely controversial at the time. It feels like there is a life. "Power is power," Cersei told Littlefinger, which was a good thing.
HBO
21/73 53. Season six, episode three: Oathbreaker
Jon Snow, coming back to life, really should not have felt flat. Yet he did it.

Jon and Sansa get together, which is cool, Daenerys is still burning other enemies, which is hot, good monologue from High Sparrow to Margaery.

Mid-season doldrums, especially in five, when Jaime and Bronn arrive at Dorne.

The same thing except that Tyrion meets Daenerys. Everyone gives themselves gifts.
HBO

A slow number at the beginning of the season, although we meet Olenna and Margaery shows how much she will be good at handling the field.
HBO
28/73 46. Season One, Episode Eight: The Pointy End
Until the next series, eight episodes are a little paralyzed by the upcoming denouements. This is true in the first season, as machines crack to set up decapitation.
HBO
29/73 45. Season three, seventh episode: The bear and the first fair
Even thinking back to what happened in this episode, I still can not remember it, aside from the fight with the bear. Oh yes, Mackenzie Crook! I forgot that he was in this program.

Two good times: Renly is killed by the shadows and Arya meets Jaqen H'ghar.
HBO
31/73 43. Season eight, second episode: "A knight of the seven kingdoms"
Another slow scene for the epic Battle of Winterfell, full of nocturnal antics like the Knight of Brienne by Jamie and the slightly disturbing sight of Arya and Gendry preparing to take it to the hammer and to the clip.
HBO
32/73 42. Season six, second episode: Home
The disappearance of the best boy, Roose Bolton, as well as Balon Greyjoy, both returned to their fate by their families. Melisandre finally uses her anti-death magic on Jon Snow.
HBO
33/73 41. Season four, episode five: first name of his name
One of the benefits of Season 4 was that it was the only time when, even briefly, it seemed like some kind of temporary stability had been achieved. Tommen is king, Sansa has escaped King's Landing, Jon Snow and takes revenge on the mutineers of Craster's Keep.
HBO
34/73 40. Season Two, Episode 10: Valar Morghulis
The White Walkers attack the Night Watch on the fist of the first men is a good laugh, but other than that, there is a lot to go through, after the events of Blackwater in the previous episode, and the finale of season two anticipates some of the rushed feeling that will occur later.
HBO
35/73 39. Season one, episode seven: You win or you die
Our first glimpse of what will become of Cersei, as she surprises Ned Stark after the death of Robert Baratheon in a hunting accident.
HBO
36/73 38. Season seven, first episode: Dragonstone
A great moment Arya, as she erases the rest of the House Frey, but it's especially for a season that counts a lot.

Ned works as a policeman at Kings Landing to find out what happened to Jon Arryn.

Theon jumps out of the boat after Euron has overtaken Greyjoy's fleet. Nice meeting between Arya and Hot Pie. Tyrion deters Daenerys from cremating King's Landing.
HBO
40/73 34. Season eight, episode 1: Winterfell & # 39;
A slower start to the game than expected for the last season, although some touching reunions took place at Winterfell, including Bran and Jamie who saw each other again.
41/73 33. Season six, episode six: The blood of my blood
Midseason. Cersei sends Jaime to retake Riverrun, while Arya is finally trained to become a murderer. I really can not remember it, to be honest.
HBO
42/73 32. Season One, Episode Five: The Wolf and the Lion
Jaime and Ned argue in the streets of King's Landing in an episode that focuses on skuldugery rather than magic. If you ask me, magic always trumps magic.
HBO
43/73 31. Season Three, Episode Three: March Against Punishment
The first moment when the trajectory of a character was really reversed. Jaime had not liked Jaime since the beginning, but when his hand was cut, he started to win us back. The Blackfish at Edmure School to shoot fire arrows was another highlight.
HBO
44/73 30. Season Four, Episode 1: Two Swords
The opening of the fourth series presented the charismatic and enigmatic viper of Dorne, one of the few positive points other than the wine to come out of Dorne. Also notable for an excellent scene with Arya and the hound cleaning a hostel.
HBO
45/73 29. Season Two, Episode Three: What's Dead May Never Die
Presents Margaery Tyrell and Brienne of Tarth, two of the best characters, and also sees Theon deciding to betray Robb Stark. What is the family? Who can you trust?

Built around the importunate marriage of Sansa and Tyrion, while in the north, we see all the importance of Sam as he draws in reserves of courage to drag in slalom a white walker.
HBO
47/73 27. Season Four, Episode Seven: Mockingbird
The fact that Littlefinger throws Lysa out of Eyrie is probably the most dramatic moment in history, one of his decisive moments of stealing power when he saves Sansa.
HBO
48/73 26. Season One, Episode One: Winter Is Coming
Do you remember an era prior to Game of Thrones? Look again "Winter is coming", marvel at Baby Starks, think about the number of dead characters, think about your own mortality. You are much, much older than at the beginning of Game of Thrones. Your life runs between your fingers.
HBO
49/73 25. Season one, episode six: a gold crown
Another dramatic death that is hard to remember now, when the miserable Viserys had come out of his moron with molten gold.
HBO
50/73 24: Season Eight, Episode Six: The Iron Throne & # 39;
Well, that was it. The grand finale caused a lot of grinding of teeth and hot air, not quite Drogon. In truth, things were linked as best as possible, given how the different pieces had been arranged, even though some of the criticisms were valid. The scenes chosen by the king and the first council were incredibly lame. A number of issues were addressed. Yet what a show.
HBO
51/73 23. Season Two, Episode Six: Old Gods and the New
Theon takes Winterfell. Theon, you say bastard. I hope you are punished for this.
HBO
52/73 22. Season five, third episode: High Sparrow
A key episode of Littlefinger, as he continues to manipulate Sansa, while Jon Snow executes Janos and at King's Landing, the machinations of Cersei are at the height of those of Margaery.
HBO
53/73 21. Season four, second episode: The lion and the rose
Joffrey, scratching his throat, turning purple, dying. Top things.
HBO
54/73 20. Season Four, Episode Six: The Laws of Men and Gods
An excellent episode of the mid-season, built around the trial of Tyrion but with many other things to admire, which alludes to the underlying economies of the Game of Thrones universe. Drogon roasts cattle, while Braavos Iron Bank refuses to bail out Davos and Stannis.
HBO
55/73 19. Season three, episode four: And now his watch is over
The total depravity of Ramsay Bolton is exposed as he makes fun of Theon with a false escape, while Commander Mormont is murdered at Craster's Donjon. But it's all about Daenerys, as she and her companions flare Astapor on the ground.
HBO
56/73 18. Season Seven, Episode Seven: The Dragon and the Wolf
It turns out that Jon Snow is actually the real heir of Seven Kingdoms, the remaining children of the Stark finally join together to kill Littlefinger, certainly in an overworked style, and the White Walkers use their new lizard hair dryer to destroy the wall. There are far too many things happening, especially the strange scene where Jon shows Cighti, but she still sends you to popcorn and encourages, which is more or less the stage where we are with the series whole now.
HBO
57/73 17. Season Three, Episode Five: Embraced by Fire
Especially for the very parodied love cave of Ygritte and Jon, but also for the duel of the Dog with Bendric Dondarrion, who revealed his terror caused by the fire. While nursing his stump in the baths, Jaime tells Brienne the truth about his badbadination of the mad king. Midseason.
HBO
58/73 16. Season Five, Episode 10: The Mercy of the Mother
The end of the fifth series is the nicest we've ever seen, as she completes her atonement pardon in the streets of King's Landing, cuts her hair and undresses. Strategically, Cersei, humiliating, turns out not to be the master-shot that the High-Sparrow thought was.
HBO
59/73 15. Season Seven, Episode Four: The Spoils of War
Spoil a lot. Arya returns to Winterfell and sees Sansa, then fights for a brief duel with Brienne who shows how much she has learned. However, this is not the case with one of the best shots in the series: Daenerys riding Drogon over a full-load Dothraki horde before cremating Lannister's lines.
HBO
60/73 14. Season One, Episode 10: Fire and Blood
We were promised dragons, and here they are, mingling at the top of the naked Daenerys. And one thing we know about baby dragons is that they have to grow up. This is the Game of Thrones version of Chekhov's rule on firearms. You will continue to watch until they blaze something up.
HBO
61/73 13. Season Five, Episode Eight: Hardhome
While the big battles unfold, the clash between Night's Watch and Wildlings and Hardhome's wights is not quite comparable to the others, but it's still cold, especially when Jon realizes his sword is working. against the snowmen. If that was not enough, Sansa also learned that her family may be alive.
HBO
62/73 12. Season four, episode nine: The observers on the wall
The big room between the night watch and the savages. Not quite up to Blackwater, despite the convening of his battle specialist, Neil Marshall, to lead.
HBO
63/73 11. Season seven, third episode: The Queen's Justice
There is too much stuff in this episode, which could have been spread over several hours, but it's still wonderful. Jon meets Daenerys for the first time, Sam heals Jorah in grayscale, Cersei erases the Tyrells. Best of all is Diana Rigg, seated at a table in her tower, bowing out of what may be Thrones' best overall performance.
HBO
64/73 10. Season eight, episode five
One of the most controversial episodes, when Dany's frustrations turned into a holocaust at King's Landing. Whatever you think of the rhythm or fidelity of the plot to the characters, it was quite a spectacle and killed several key characters in a dramatic style.
HBO
65/73 9. Season six, episode five: The door
Poor old Hodor. The death that nobody wanted, as a wonderful character, played with so much sympathy by Kristian Nairn, is finally returned to him.
HBO
66/73 8. Season Four, Episode Eight: The Mountain and the Viper
There are other things going on: Littlefinger takes the Vale and the Boltons up in Winterfell, but the episode is especially memorable for the central duel, while Oberyn asks justice on behalf of the man who murdered so many of his loved ones, and for an image above all else. armored fingers of the mountain crushing Oberyn's skull like a grapefruit.
HBO
67/73 7. Season one, episode nine: Baelor
Poor old Ned Stark. The death they said could never happen! Clearly, they had not watched enough of Sean Bean's films.
HBO
68/73 6. Season eight, episode three: The long night
After two episodes of staging, The Long Night finally holds the promise of season eight, with 90 minutes of blood and wonderful fire at Winterfell. The hordes of King Night meet the badembled ranks of Westeros, Wildlings, Dothraki and Unsullied. Defenders lose and lose and lose until they finally win, but not before some spectacular deaths. While it lacks some of the strategic nuances of other battles, it compensates for breathtaking action sequences and computer-generated images, particularly on dragons, who fight over the plain.
HBO
69/73 5. Season Six, Episode 10: The Winds of Winter
The winter has arrived. It opens with the peak Cersei, while it eliminates all its enemies in one and the same fire. Arya kills Walder Frey. Jon's theory is confirmed. Tommen goes out the window.
HBO
70/73 4. Season Three, Episode Nine: Rains of Castemere
The Lannisters salute you. Some would have this number one, and one could easily argue the case. The red marriage was the scene that pushed Game of Thrones out of its reputation and integrate into popular culture in a broad sense, the point where it was no longer avoidable. Fury, anguish, love, surprise, pity, hate: everything is there. The look that Roose Bolton gives Catelyn Stark when she reveals that the coat of mail that he wears for dinner might be my only favorite moment of any program.
HBO
71/73 3. Season Six, Episode Nine: The Battle of the Bastards
Anyone who has seen Apocalypto, Mel Gibson's Mayan drama, knows that running in a straight line, far from arrows, rarely works. So it was a good thing for Rickon, who organized one of the big battles, not only on TV but also in any type of movie. Where battles had been bothered by the budget in previous seasons, especially when Tyrion was knocked out and missed, it was the belt and shoulder straps. She was brilliantly led, with aerial shots, as well as close-ups facing the mud to convey all the heartbreaking horror of the battle and the dark relief of victory.
HBO
72/73 2. Season Four, Episode 10: The Children
I think the fourth season is the best in all respects, the culmination of the character's development before starting to be forced by the plots of the plot in the next series. Brienne's bloody fight with the Dog leaves him bloody and bloody as Arya heads for Braavos. Tywin finally found his place, a crossbow in the toilet, administered by his son, Tyrion, who then fled. And Stannis's cavalry arrives to save Jon and defeat Mance Rayder and the Indians in a pincer movement, after being persuaded by Davos.
HBO
73/73 1. Season two, episode nine: Blackwater
It's a purely personal point of view, but if Ned Stark's death was the moment you sat down and paid attention, Blackwater was where you started cheering on TV. The magnitude, the splendor, the depth of character of the big events: they felt all new, somehow. It was perhaps the last moment when we were equally rooted on both sides, with the exception of one side being consumed in a strange green glow. Wildfire does not care who your favorite character is.
HBO
1/73 73. Season seven, episode five: Eastwatch
There must be a loser. "Eastwatch" throws one of the most important pieces of news in the series, Jon's true lineage, as well as many beautiful meetings. This is the best example of the series' rush in recent years, with unpredictability giving way to a conventional plot.

HBO
39/73 35. Saison sept, deuxième épisode: Stormborn
Theon saute du bateau après qu'Euron ait dépbadé la flotte de Greyjoy. Belle réunion entre Arya et Hot Pie. Tyrion dissuade Daenerys d’incinérer King’s Landing.
HBO
40/73 34. Saison huit, épisode 1: 'Winterfell'
Un début de match plus lent que prévu pour la dernière saison, même si quelques retrouvailles émouvantes ont eu lieu à Winterfell, notamment Bran et Jamie qui se sont revus.
41/73 33. Saison six, épisode six: Le sang de mon sang
Mi-saison. Cersei envoie Jaime pour reprendre Riverrun, alors qu'Arya est finalement formée pour devenir une badbadine. Je ne peux vraiment pas m'en souvenir, pour être honnête.
HBO
42/73 32. Saison un, épisode cinq: Le loup et le lion
Jaime et Ned se disputent dans les rues de King’s Landing dans un épisode qui met l’accent sur la skuldugery plutôt que sur la magie. Si vous me le demandez, la magie l'emporte toujours sur la magie.
HBO
43/73 31. Saison trois, épisode trois: Marche contre le châtiment
Le premier moment où la trajectoire d’un personnage était vraiment inversée. Jaime n’avait pas aimé Jaime depuis le début, mais quand sa main a été coupée, il a commencé à nous reconquérir. Le Blackfish à l'école Edmure à tirer des flèches de feu était un autre point fort.
HBO
44/73 30. Saison quatre, épisode 1: Deux épées
L’ouverture de la quatrième série a présenté la vipère charismatique et énigmatique de Dorne, l’un des rares points positifs autre que le vin à sortir de Dorne. Également remarquable pour une excellente scène avec Arya et le chien de chbade nettoyant une auberge.
HBO
45/73 29. Saison deux, épisode trois: Ce qui est mort peut ne jamais mourir
Présente Margaery Tyrell et Brienne of Tarth, deux des meilleurs personnages, et voit également Theon décider de trahir Robb Stark. Qu'est ce que la famille? À qui peux-tu faire confiance?
HBO
46/73 28. Saison trois, épisode huit: Second Sons
Construit autour du mariage importun de Sansa et Tyrion, tandis que dans le nord, on voit toute l’importance de Sam alors qu’il dessine dans les réserves de courage pour traîner en slalom un marcheur blanc.
HBO
47/73 27. Saison quatre, épisode sept: Mockingbird
Le fait que Littlefinger jette Lysa hors de l’Eyrie est probablement le moment le plus dramatique de l’histoire, un de ses moments décisifs de vol de pouvoir lorsqu’il sauve Sansa.
HBO
48/73 26. Saison un, épisode un: l'hiver arrive
Vous souvenez-vous d'une époque antérieure à Game of Thrones? Regardez à nouveau «L’hiver arrive», émerveillez-vous devant le bébé Starks, réfléchissez au nombre de personnages morts, réfléchissez à votre propre mortalité. Vous êtes beaucoup, beaucoup plus âgé qu'au début de Game of Thrones. Votre vie court entre vos doigts.
HBO
49/73 25. Saison un, épisode six: une couronne d'or
Une autre mort dramatique dont il est difficile de se souvenir à présent, alors que le misérable Viserys était sorti de son crétin avec de l’or en fusion.
HBO
50/73 24: Saison huit, épisode six: 'Le trône de fer'
Eh bien, c'était ça. La grande finale a provoqué beaucoup de grincements de dents et d’air chaud, pas tout à fait de Drogon. En vérité, les choses étaient liées du mieux possible, compte tenu de la manière dont les différentes pièces avaient été arrangées, même si certaines des critiques étaient valables. Les scènes choisies par le roi et le premier conseil étaient incroyablement boiteuses. Un certain nombre de questions ont été abordées. Pourtant, quel spectacle.
HBO
51/73 23. Saison deux, épisode six: Old Gods and the New
Theon prend Winterfell. Theon, vous dites bâtard. J'espère que vous êtes punis pour cela.
HBO
52/73 22. Saison cinq, troisième épisode: High Sparrow
Un épisode clé de Littlefinger, alors qu’il continue à manipuler Sansa, tandis que Jon Snow exécute Janos et, à King’s Landing, les machinations de Cersei sont à la hauteur de celles de Margaery.
HBO
53/73 21. Saison quatre, deuxième épisode: Le lion et la rose
Joffrey, se grattant la gorge, virant au violet, mourant. Top choses.
HBO
54/73 20. Saison quatre, épisode six: Les lois des hommes et des dieux
Un excellent épisode de la mi-saison, construit autour du procès de Tyrion mais avec plein d’autres choses à admirer, qui fait allusion aux économies sous-jacentes de l’univers de Game of Thrones. Drogon fait griller du bétail, tandis que la Banque de fer de Braavos refuse de renflouer Davos et Stannis.
HBO
55/73 19. Season three, episode four: And Now His Watch Is Ended
The full depravity of Ramsay Bolton is laid bare as he taunts Theon with a fake escape, while Commander Mormont is murdered at Craster’s Keep. But really it’s all about Daenerys, as she and her pets flame Astapor to the ground.
HBO
56/73 18. Season seven, episode seven: The Dragon and the Wolf
It turns out Jon Snow is actually the true heir to the Seven Kingdoms, the remaining Stark children finally team up to kill Littlefinger, admittedly in overwrought style, and the White Walkers use their new lizard hairdryer to destroy the wall. There is far too much going on, especially the odd scene where Jon shows Cersei the wight, but nevertheless it sends you reaching for the popcorn and cheering along, which is more or less where we are at with the whole series by now.
HBO
57/73 17. Season three, episode five: Kissed by Fire
Most notable for Ygritte and Jon’s much-parodied love grotto scene, but also for the Hound’s duel with Bendric Dondarrion, which revealed his terror of fire. Nursing his stump in the baths, Jaime tells Brienne the truth about his badbadination of the Mad King. Mid-seasoner.
HBO
58/73 16. Season five, episode 10: Mother’s Mercy
The denouement of the fifth series is the most sympathetic we ever see Cersei, as she completes her walk of atonement through the streets of King’s Landing, her hair cut and her clothes stripped. Strategically, humiliating Cersei proves not to be the masterstroke the High Sparrow thought it would be.
HBO
59/73 15. Season seven, episode four: The Spoils of War
Spoils aplenty. Arya returns to Winterfell and sees Sansa, then fights a brief duel with Brienne that shows just how much she’s learnt. It’s nothing on one of the great shots of the whole series, however: Daenerys riding Drogon above a Dothraki horde in full charge before incinerating the Lannister lines.
HBO
60/73 14. Season one, episode 10: Fire and Blood
We were promised dragons, and here they are, mewing atop the naked Daenerys. And one thing we know about baby dragons is they must grow up. This is Game of Thrones’ version of Chekhov’s rule about guns. You’ll keep watching until they torch something.
HBO
61/73 13. Season five, episode eight: Hardhome
As the big battles go, the showdown between the Night’s Watch and wildlings and the wights at Hardhome doesn’t quite match some of the others, but it is still dead cool, especially when Jon realises his sword works against the snowmen. If that wasn’t enough, Sansa also learnt that her family might be alive.
HBO
62/73 12. Season four, episode nine: The Watchers on the Wall
The big set-piece between the Night’s Watch and the wildlings. Not quite up to Blackwater’s standards, despite its battle specialist Neil Marshall being summonsed back to direct.
HBO
63/73 11. Season seven, episode three: The Queen’s Justice
There is too much crammed into this episode, which could have been spread over several hours, but it’s wonderful stuff all the same. Jon meets Daenerys for the first time, Sam cures Jorah of greyscale, Cersei obliterates the Tyrells. Best of all is Diana Rigg, at a table in her tower, bowing out from what is perhaps Thrones’ best overall performance.
HBO
64/73 10. Season eight, episode five
One of the most divisive episodes, as Dany’s frustrations spilled over into a holocaust in King’s Landing. Whatever you thought of the pacing, or the plot’s fidelity to the characters, it was quite a spectacle, and killed off several key figures in dramatic style.
HBO
65/73 9. Season six, episode five: The Door
Poor old Hodor. The death nobody wanted, as a wonderful character, played so sympathetically by Kristian Nairn, is finally given his due.
HBO
66/73 8. Season four, episode eight: The Mountain and the Viper
Other things happen: Littlefinger takes over the Vale, and the Boltons move into Winterfell, but the episode is mainly memorable for the central duel, as Oberyn seeks justice from the man who murdered so many of his relatives, and for one image above all, of the Mountain’s armoured fingers crushing Oberyn’s skull like a grapefruit.
HBO
67/73 7. Season one, episode nine: Baelor
Poor old Ned Stark. The death they said could never happen! Clearly they had not watched enough Sean Bean films.
HBO
68/73 6. Season eight, episode three: The Long Night
After two scene-setting episodes, The Long Night finally delivers on the promise of season eight, with 90 minutes of marvellous blood and fire at Winterfell. The Night King’s hordes meet the badembled ranks of Westeros, wildlings, Dothraki and Unsullied. The defenders lose and lose and lose until they finally win, although not before a few spectacular deaths. If it lacks some of the strategic nuance of other battles, it compensates with stunning action sequences and CGI, especially on the dragons, who dogfight high above the plain.
HBO
69/73 5. Season six, episode 10: The Winds of Winter
Winter has come. It opens with peak Cersei, as she eliminates all her remaining enemies in one enormous blaze. Arya kills Walder Frey. The Jon Theory is confirmed. Tommen walks out of the window.
HBO
70/73 4. Season three, episode nine: Rains of Castemere
The Lannisters send their regards. Some would have this number one, and one could easily make the case. The Red Wedding was the scene that broke Game of Thrones out of its fandom and into broader popular culture, the point where it was no longer avoidable. Fury, anguish, love, surprise, pity, hate: it’s all here. The look Roose Bolton gives Catelyn Stark when she reveals the chainmail he is wearing to dinner might be my single favourite moment of the whole programme.
HBO
71/73 3. Season six, episode nine: Battle of the Bastards
Anyone who has seen Mel Gibson’s Mayan drama Apocalypto knows that running in a straight line away from arrows rarely works. So it proved for Rickon, setting up one of the great battles not only on TV but on any kind of film. Where in previous seasons battles had occasionally felt hampered by budget, most egregiously when Tyrion was knocked out and missed the whole thing, this was the full belt and braces. It was brilliantly directed, with aerial shots, as well as face-in-the-mud close-ups to convey the full grinding horror of the battle, and the grim relief of victory.
HBO
72/73 2. Season four, episode 10: The Children
The fourth season is the best all-round, I think, the high-point of character development before it started to be forced by the machinations of the plot in the later series. Brienne’s bloody brawl with the Hound leaves him bleeding and broken, as Arya heads off to Braavos. Tywin finally gets his comeuppance, a crossbow bolt on the loo, administered by his son, Tyrion, who then flees. And Stannis’s cavalry arrives to save Jon and defeat Mance Rayder and the wildlings in a pincer movement, having been persuaded by Davos.
HBO
73/73 1. Season two, episode nine: Blackwater
This is purely a personal view, but if Ned Stark’s death was the moment you sat up and paid attention, Blackwater was the where you started cheering at the TV. The scale, the splendour, the depth of character brought to bear on grand events: they all felt new, somehow. This might have been the last moment where we were equally rooting for both sides, except for one side to be consumed in an eerie green glow. Wildfire doesn’t care who your favourite character is.
