Bring back Stannis next.
Surely they'll have some explanation of the limits of this power in the next episode or episodes. Otherwise, it does beg the question why that power isn't used more often. We've already received a hint of that, in that the person brought back loses "something." But there's got to be more.

You guys watch After the Thrones on HBO GO? Not bad at all. Wish they had more time though.

I've heard about that theory and I don't like it one bit. Not because it's not plausible (I think it could be the case) but because it's highly unlikely to know if it's true.
Who would reveal this secret? Even with Jon there are very few people who know if R+L=J is true but with "T" there's not a single hint of anyone keeping a secret of said character's ancestry. Unless someone in Westeros or Essos comes up with some DNA test then I don't see it happening.

LOL "It wouldn't even have to be a big dragon.......it could be little....like me."
This episode was so full of WIN, it wasn't even funny. Loved seeing Hodor as a 'child.'
Game of Thrones is not overly concerned with the fantasy side of the equation, but when they do embrace it, the show is magic for me. Just enough to keep it interesting.

As usual, fantastic episode of the BEST thing on television (free or otherwise). And, as usual, the episode ends RIGHT when you want more...
Just some thoughts.
Who (answer in spoilers, if necessary). I watched the previews, but did not see any character I recognized. It wasn't an old character that has been recast, was it?
Also, was Max Van Sydow the original Three-Eyed Raven WAY back in season four(?), or was the character re-cast?
Just some thoughts.
The good die in the most horrific manner, but even when the "villains" get what's coming to them, it's not as satisfying. Roose gets killed by his own son, but I was hoping there would be some justice/retribution from a Stark. I think the last time (only time?) there was a villain's death that a viewer cheered for (maybe a bad choice of words) was Joffrey's death.
After two seasons (unless I'm miscounting), we finally see Balon Greyjoy again, who, IMO, did great work in the second season. It took a while, but they finally tied up that plot thread from when Melisandre took Gendry's blood with the leeches, and the leeches were dropped in the flames one by one, with Stannis pronouncing "the usurper, Robb Stark...the usurper, Joffrey Baratheon...the usurper, Balon Greyjoy"...
Alistair Thorne has to be a dead man, along with the other insurgents (even Olly...you have to feel for him, after having seen his parents butchered by the Theens, but god damn, the prissy little expression on his face in the scenes he's in makes me want to smack the ***** out of him). If Jon Stark executed Janos Slynt for daring to speak up to him at a Night's Watch council, there's no way he can let Thorne live.
Ramsey Bolton stated that they didn't need the whole of the North on their side, just the Karstarks, the Umbers, and another family who's name I can't mention. Last we saw of Rickon Stark, he was travelling to get the protection of the Umbers. Wonder how that will play out.

And he can talk. Makes me wonder why he can't anymore.

Man, was he all grown up? I probably didn't recognize him.

No, he wasn't shown, but a person from the place he was headed last we saw him, mentioned that they had a bargaining chip (paraphrasing), and I don't think it's too much of a stretch to assume it may be him.
Also, people near the shooting location have taken pics of him in the area
Damn...Bran had a huge growth spurt 
I think Tyrion is Targaryan
DinoDB1975

Yes, that's a possible theory. Tyrion is actually the child of Joanna Lannister and Aerys Targaryan. Would explain why Tywin had so much disdain for Tyrion.
Also, Jamie, Cersei, Joffrey, Mycella, and Tommen all have (had, in the case of Joffrey and Mycella) straight, golden hair. Tyrion's hair is darker, and is curly...like Jon Snow.

Kind of funny that the Wildling giant's name is Wun Wun...because Martin is a huge NFL fan and Phil Simms of the Giants wore 11.

Kinda dissapointing,
Jon resurrecting on a funeral pyre in front of everyone would've been more dramatic.

While that would look cool/be more dramatic, I don't understand how that makes sense. I thought it was established that fire cannot harm a dragon, i.e. a Targaryan. Was it ever established that fire would resurrect a dragon (Targaryan)?
Thinking back now, Jon Snow burned his hand when he threw the lantern at the wight in Season 1 when he was defending Lord Commander Mormont. Either that was a mistake, or evidence that Snow is not a Targaryan?
