White Walkers cannot pass the wall, and they have to follow winter. Theyve been waiting for the winter arrive, which it just did last finale, and winter is slowly descending from the North down and they will follow it in. Its Blizzard at the wall, its barely snowing in winterfel. Apprently winter moves north so south in Westeros.

Scream wtf are you talking about? Aren't you like some writer? How can you be that bad at reading comprehension, I never said I care about the characters arc or longevity, the way he died why he died, just simply SHOW A SHOT OF HIM DURING THE FUCKING BATTLE.

I am like some writer. I am also like some producer. And as a like some producer I can tell you they probably do have that shot of Tarly with his Dickon-face on looking shocked and scared. It's probably sitting on some editors Avid station right now in a group called "REMOVED". But between your 3 seconds of him looking as constipated as his son and Soygen wanting every single character to look into the camera and hold up their travel itinerary for us to read, some shit has to go. Showing Tarly doing X does nothing for the plot other than say "oh yeah this guy was here too". And it would seem you DO care about his arc if you're going to such lengths to be upset about these 3 seconds of screen time you missed out on.

I get that as a viewer you want to see X and need to hear Y but at the end of the day you have Z amount of time for an episode. Hell, your nerd rage could be directed at the assistant editors of the show for all we know.

And yes, I was incorrect in that Tarly was there for the entire battle. You got me. Even us like some writers can be guilty of bad TV watching.

Dunno about "barely" snowing at Winterfell. When they showed the shot of Arya on horseback looking from that hill entire area was snow covered. Not blizzard for sure, but seemed like it was consistent snow at least.

Showing what happened to Tarly and his son is important. His estranged son Sam is a POV character...and now the last remaining living heir. It will play a part.

Not exactly a relevant argument when it concerns the show's shortest episode ever.

It wasn't. It was tied with about a dozen other episodes at 50 minutes runtime for shortest. Some fan favorites were at 50 minutes. I get your point however.

I can't wait until Sam runs into Jon again and Jon is Sam, Dany. Dany, Sam!
Hi Sam. You have the same last name as 2 other guys I roasted the other day.

Shit, old maester for Night's Watch was a Targ and kept serving despite most of the rest of his family being put to the sword/hammer.

It'll be interesting how the writers handle it. We all know it is coming. I fully expect he'll look at Jon and Jon will say I am king in the norf. The wigget walkers are coming. We don't have time for this right now, or bending knees or hot cave sex. We're all gonna die. GAME OVER MAN GAME OVER.

2 months later. HBO nominated for 40 oscars.
