This week in “May of Thrones,” we’re discussing seasons 5 and 6 of “Game Of Thrones.” At one point, one of us notes that everything went downhill after season 4. Oh, no, because two of us love these seasons.
What’s your take?
Season 5 Highlights:
- Arya's training with the Faceless Men in Braavos
- Cersei's creation of and downfall orchestrated by the High Sparrow and Faith Militant
- Hardhome battle and introduction of the Night King (as well as the electrifying Kari, played by Birgitte Hjort Sørensen)
Season 6 Highlights:
- Jon Snow's resurrection (whaaat?! and whyyyy?!)
- The emotional reunion of Sansa and Jon at Winterfell
- No one deciding to be Arya Stark of Winterfell
- Cersei's wildfire explosion at the Sept of Baelor
- Bran's visions reveal Jon's true parentage
- Hodor's tragic origin story: "Hold the door"
Other Discussion Points:
- Favorite moments and characters like Lyanna Mormont
- Cersei and Daenerys' obsession with "bending the knee"
- Maisie Williams' performance as Arya and her new show “The New Look”
