The "Light of the Seven" theme has to be one of the best scores in the entirety of television history. All hail Ramin Djawadi !

I have to say it: Lena Headey is an amazing smirker 😂

When Maester Aemon told Sam “A Targaryen alone in the world is a terrible thing.” The camera panned to Jon entering the room. That was the major hint in S5.

Never liked Cersei but I had to tip my hat to her after she blew up the Sept and got rid of all her enemies in King’s Landing. True villainy excellence tbh.

39:14 Cersei definitely *DID NOT* anticipate Tommen's death. She thought she could prevent it by protecting him. She never foresaw that he would be so heartbroken over Margaery that he would kill himself. It's a very common trope that when you try to avoid prophecy, it still happens. You might even precipitate it.

olenna: what are going to do cersei? are you going to kill them all? cersei: thanks for the advise

Always liked that "Lyanna" Mormont named after "Lyanna" Stark was first to declare Jon the King in the North, its almost like Jon's Mom was speaking to him

You're confusing Littlefinger with Varys -- Varys is the one who's always said he wasn't interested in the throne, that he served the realm. Littlefinger has always wanted the throne from day one -- the Stark vs. Lannister feud he manipulated through Lysa was all part of that plan.

The entire opening scene of this episode was pure MASTERY. The imagery, the score, the plot. 10/10 ,also the big reveal ,best season finale after season 4 one.

Couple episodes ago you said Cersei looks defeated and not so ruthless anymore, episode 10 she said hold my wine glass😂

What I really love in this episode is when Jon tells Sansa “we cannot fight a war amongst ourselves.” It’s exactly what Ned tells Arya in season 1 episode 3.

Littlefinger always wanted the Iron Throne. He always wanted to climb the ladder to the top. He said it himself in S1E7 Varys: "And what do you want?" Littlefinger: "Oh...Everything"

The scene with Arya feeding Walder Frey his family mirrored Bran's story of the rat cook and the king after the red wedding.

4:50 Joffrey's death is not what precipitated the chaos of King's landing. It's Tywins. If Tywin was still alive the Lannisters would still have a tight grip on shit. One thing that the show unfortunately changed from the books is that Kevan, Tywin's brother, is quite competent at running shit in KL, and helping Cersei. He dies in a completely different manner, and is killed precisely because he's too effective at helping Cersei.

Arya gives the audience a clue when she says "They're already here 'MY LORD' " calling back to her conversation with Tywin at Harrenhall.

I’ll be honest. This is my favourite episode in the entire series. Absolutely incredible.

"Honor comes easy then" Ned chose his family twice over his honor, to protect children. Ned Stark makes the right choice both times to sacrifice his honor. He is the most honorable man in the all seven Kingdoms. Us book readers are waiting for this reveal for decades now.

Just fyi, if Rhaegar is Jon’s father as you’re theorizing, Danny would be Jon’s aunt as Rhaegar is her brother.

I believe that Cersei wore black as sort of a sadistic "mourning" dress for those killed at the Sept. And then when Tommen killed himself, it became unironic and she actually had to mourn over her son.

Cersei didn't know. The one redeeming quality Cersei has is she loved her children completely. But she also knew of the prophecy about losing her children. So, when it happened, she was desolated but not surprised.

I completely understand hating Cersei. But this is one of the few episodes where I can appreciate her. She's terrible. She was trapped. She found a way out and got rid of those scheming against her. This opening scene was great. Show her a little respect after that showing 😂

Spartan is right. The moment Tywin died, Cersei was no longer obligated to marry Loras because there was no one anymore to force her to do so. The Tyrells did not want the match either. Cersei got Loras arrested to get to Margaery to prevent the prophecy (episode 5x01) from coming true: “You will be Queen… for a time. Until there comes another, younger, more beautiful to cast you down and take everything you hold dear.” She thought Margaery was that younger, more beautiful Queen

One of the worst thing is that Catelyn died without knowing the truth about Jon and Ned's loyalty

Two things from this episode… Ned was always honorable to his oaths. No one knew about the oath he promised Lyanna. Why does Littlefinger want the throne? He wants everything. S1E7…“You know what I learned losing that duel? I learned that I’ll never win. Not that way. That’s their game, their rules. I’m not going to fight them, I’m going to f*ck them. That’s what I know, that’s what I am. And only by admitting what we are can we get what we want.”

The jon snow reveal was one of the best moments in game of thrones. People started to cotton on about ‘promise me Ned’, and rhaegar and Lyanna before season 6 and when it was finally revealed it was epic!

the composer is actually genius cause in GOT we have never heard piano, and this episode starting with the piano, you know something is not right. To get into the mood and feel the scene you need to watch it fully without talking over it. Trust me it's great.

This is my favourite episode, Margaery is the only one to clock onto something being wrong- she's spent the last couple of series just trying to get out of the Faith predicament and left the High Sparrow to deal with Cersei. In that last moment she breaks her faith act as she realises that the High Sparrow underestimated Cersei. Also the scene with Davos and Melisandre is one of my favourites, such incredible acting from both

Am i the only one who actually likes cersei's character then? I think she is one of the best and most complex characters in the show....

It's so funny because everyone watching this reaction had the same smirk Cercei had when that wildfire went off XD

Best episode of Game of Thrones by a mile I'd say. There are better seasons, not better episodes.

THAT'S MY QUEEN! You don't fuck with Cersei. One of the best written characters ever.

17:41 the high septon was scared shitless he finally realized who he was dealing with at the end the expression of true fear was all over his face 😮

I find it funny that the final sin that Loras listed himself as being guilty of was arrogance when in the end the Sparrow was too arrogant himself to see the writing that was on the wall, even when Margaery practically spelt it out for him.

The kids were Varys’ little birds, Qyburn then corrupted them… supposedly Pycelle had abused them and then they killed him.

No....Cersei was dressed that way because she knew she was putting the entire sept to death. Lol...poetic essence/ justice, in a sense. She laid them to rest. She didn't send Jamie on a botch mission because she anticipated the Mountain fighting for her. She said it specifically to Jamie before he left for Riverrun. Then...the Mountain ripped off the faith militant's head....and Tommen banned trial by combat. So there's no way Cersei planned to get the throne, etc.

That’s all littlefinger has wanted was the throne throughout the show it’s why he started everything.

This episode's music score is just incredible (my favorite out of all the series). The build-up, the feels. Ramin Djawadi's a freaking God.

Ned had to lie about Jon because otherwise, Robert would have had him killed. Not only because he was a Targaryen male (future rival) but the son of Lyanna with another man, one that he hated and blamed for "stealing" his fiancée. Plus Jon is the constant reminder of the love Lyanna had for Rhaegar that she didnt have for Robert.

I actually love this Cersei moment.... sort of like Michael Corleone in the last Godfather scene... settles all score. It was a master stroke. As she said, she chose violence.

I'm so happy that the series ended with Dany sailing to Westeros and Jon being named King in the North! Such a nice ambiguous ending. 💕

This is one of the best episodes to ever air on television 👏🏻

I always laugh like a maniac when people react to Cercei’s plot for the first time. It’s just perfect, the plan, the suspense, the music, the execution. This episode is the only one where I was actively cheering for Cersei😂😂

An even sadder scene in retrospect was the last time Ned and Jon were together, Ned promised Jon that the next time they saw each other they would talk about Jon's mother.

Jon becoming King in the north with the speech from this awesome Lady still gives me chills

The music in the opening sequence is some of the best music in the show, hands down! Easily one of my top 5 episodes in the whole series! Amazing from beginning to end.

Lyanna said 'If Robert finds out he'll kill him'.

Cersi says what enemies and blows them all up with wild fire😂 she's the baddest chick in game of thrones I love it.

Ok, this episode and any reaction to it deserves "like" before even watching. Probably the best episode we've seen so far in GoT. It has everything: perfect soundtrack, perfect script, perfect acting, everything.

I'm surprised that you guys were confused about Jon's parentage, I feel like you pick up everything haha! At this point in the show, it's not a theory, so I don't think me explaining is a "spoiler," I'm just providing clarity. Robert's Rebellion started due to Lyanna's disappearance with Rhaegar (presumed to be kidnapped). Rhaegar was keeping Lyanna hidden at the Tower of Joy throughout the war (the tower seen in this season). At this point in the story when Ned goes to "save" her, the Mad King and Rhaegar are both dead. An important thing to note is that Rhaegar left two of his best Kingsguard to keep guard at the Tower of Joy with Lyanna, while Rhaegar was fighting Robert. Wouldn't you think he would keep his Kingsguard with him to fight? But he didn't so why would you think that is? To protect Lyanna and his child. It's not really fleshed out in the show, but a big point in the first book of the series during Ned's POV chapters, was his recalling Lyanna's last moments and her last words to him - "Promise me, Ned." That is shown here, along with her saying, "They will kill him and you know it." She is telling him that he has to keep Jon's identity as Rhaegar's son secret because Robert would kill him if he knew. And so, when Ned returned to Winterfell with a newborn Jon, he told everyone that he was his bastard to honor his promise to his dead sister.

35:13 I love the R+L = J confusion! It's pricesless!

Cersei was being truly sadistic, yes, but that nun absolutely deserved what she got. She was just as power hungry and judgmental as Cersei, just doing it within the Faith.

What's the difference between what Cersei does to the woman who tortured and abused her and what Sansa did to the man who tortured and abused her? Cersei is not a good person but she is not the same as Joffrey and Ramsay. Her most heinous actions are not driven by being evil for evil's sake, they're driven by survival. She will do anything and everything to protect herself and hers. Jaime is the same, he killed the mad king and tried to murder Bran to protect himself and his. The difference is she's the only character who has spent the whole series playing the game of thrones, constantly on survival mode, with knives at her throat. I'm not defending Cersei's behavior, I am simply saying the character and her motivations are a lot more complex than just "she's evil". And that is why so many people enjoy her character. Morality and likability are not what automatically makes a character interesting, layered, and entertaining, of which Cersei is all three.

Hey guys, I never write comments but Game of Thrones is my favorite show ever and one of my favorite stories ever (I read all the books), and this episode in particular is one of my favorites out of all of them. I just want to let you know that I love watching your reactions, I've been very depressed and struggling a lot in life, but it's been nice to watch the show again with you. It gives me at least something to look forward to during the week. Thank you for making your videos, keep at it

Yor gotta respect Cerci here, she will do anything to protect what is hers, thats a making of a great villain

The Winds of Winter is my favorite episode of the show because it’s no filler from the beginning lol so much important stuff happens! Winter is Here my friends

The moment the true meaning of "A song of ice and fire" was revealed. So many things in this episode, too many to discuss in the comments. Great reaction as always!

It's the first time i think ramin used piano in the show. And he knock it out of the park like everytime.

White ravens are sent by the Citadel to indicate the change of seasons in Westeros. At the end of season 1, Pycell said that the Citadel proclaimed that the “great,” 10-year summer an end, thus autumn begun. It has been autumn this whole time, from season 2 till now. Winter has came!

How dare you even consider that Ned would impregnate his sister lol.

Cersei did not intend for Tommen to die

These last 2 episodes of season 6 are amazing, not much on TV that can surpass them.

Been waiting for these last 2 episodes for literally ever, some of the best television I've personally seen

I love how we can see the gears working in Pudgey’s head as she tries to tease apart the secrets of this show! So good

Spartan saying Dany should know her place is funny 😂😂. Dany is to be Queen of the Seven Kingdoms not Queen of the South. The seven kingdoms are there because of her family, the Seven Kingdoms are the Targaryens

Gotta hand it over to the soundtrack composer Ramin Djawadi here in this episode. The beautiful yet unnerving soundtrack at the beginning has quickly become my favourite in the whole show.

Littlefinger said in season 4 episode 4 that he wants “Everything” which in my opinion means the Throne in this show

The white raven scene got me every time. Jon says exactly what Ned said to Arya when they were at King's Landing...with his gaze skyward thinking of his father (his uncle 😉) and the snow falling and the Starks theme playing... what a moving scene! And for the revelation that Jon is the son of Liana and Rhaegar, Ned protected this boy all his life, lied to his wife and to Robert Baratheon, his best friend... what a man! 🖤🐺

I remember the first time I watch this I thought Margaery survived for some reason... Her character was so good I refuse to believe they will just kill her off just like that. Even during season 7 I was still waiting for her. 😂

Season 5 and 6 have some illogical scenes/plots, but this episode is a bomb. It's of course weird, that they have 3 candles and this lil boy so that lancel can find the wildfire, but it's very cool and at the end we lose so many characters in one scene and Jon and danny give me goosebumps everytime

The Soundtrack for the whole Cersei blowing up the Sept sequence was brilliant.

Arya killing Walder Frey was foreshadowed when Bran told Jojan and Meera the story about the cook that served a lord his sons in a pie because he broke the guest protection law and killed guests under his roof. The Stark kids obviously took Old Nan's stories and REALLY listened. 😅 Varys once said " Littlefinger would let the realm burn if he could be king of the ashes" so Littlefinger HAS had ambitions for the throne, just not Varys.

The “Light of the Seven,” is also one of the most incredible pieces of music ever orchestrated for tv.

When I watched this episode for the first time, the score of “The Light of the Seven” really caught me off guard. It is so different for the show because this is the first time the piano was used as the main instrument

Seems like spartan doesnt like villians or antagonist in shows lol, I never really liked cersei but after this episode she became my fav character, her getting her revenge and end up sitting in the iron throne felt so satisfying

The best final episode among TV serieses. True masterpiece of ost music and plot twists

The music, everything absolutely everything makes this one of the best episodes of TV ever. The transition from baby Jon to adult was unbelievable

The opening 10-20 minutes of this episode is the greatest 10 minutes in television history!!

Cersi was playing the game of thrones and won. People constantly underestimated how vengeful, ruthless and cunning she is. From Ned, to the high sparrow. Even her husband. Once they didn't kill her after she was prisoner and her walk of attonment, i thought, she is going to kill everyone. The citizens or people laughed at her, so she did not mind them as collatoral damage.

How can you not enjoy Cersei during this ep. I LOVED every second of it. The revenge she got this episode was sooo satisfying 😂

So glad yall loved Season 6. S6 and S4 are my two favorite seasons, followed by season 3 and 5

Cersei deserves the crown!!! I used to hate her too but she's so smart and a wonderful character. This episode is one of the best. Everytime I see Davos scene I cry. Such a brilliant actor.

I love Cersei, gotta respect when someone admits they feel good doing evil

Separation of church and state by Cersei Lannister.

I love the way S&P's hate for Cersei has made "Cersei deliberately killed Tommen" their headcannon :D

The Winds of Winter, what a beautiful -serie's- season finale.

I'm still shocked that they seemed to never ever not once wonder about Jon's true parentage. I know it's more obscure in the show than the books, but they were so heavy handed with it even in season 1 (at least to me, esp whenever Maester Aemon is with Jon).

I don’t understand why you guys expected Cersei to do the work. The main theme of the show is having power, and it comes in many forms, one is just to rule and order. Cersei is never a warrior or has the capability to entirely act on her own to do her biddings.

Spartan&Pudgey: Cersei lost everything... She has no power... Cersei: Hold my wine

Tommen straight walking out of the window not even hesitating a second is as heartbreaking as it is hilarious. It was one of the most internet breaking memes that year.

cersei blowing up the sept has to be in the top 3 of best moments of GoT.

This is probably the greatest episode of television ever made.

IMO this is the best episode in the entire series. Highly recommend watching Light of the Seven live.

You can say king Tommen made 'King's Landing' live up to its name.

"Light of the Seven" is my alarm and ringtone 😂 I adore this episode beyond words. It's impossible to wrap your head around how much is packed into it. Just absolutely epic!

This was probably one of the happiest days in my life, when all this happened. Which is even more surprising, considering the fact that we had Dany's return and the Battle of the bastards in the previous episode.

I do not think that Cercei anticipated that Tommen would die. Yes, she had those clothes on, but also the glass of wine she drank from after the Sept blew up... I think she meant to celebrate this victory of hers. Tommen... wouldn't have been a part of the plan. As to her reaction to his death, I think it sort of broke her. She no longer had anyone she cared for, thus grieving was no longer much of an option to her.

This episode never fails to give me chills.....

At last, Varys reveals his teleporting powers!

This is a great episode, one of the best in the whole show... curious to see what you 2 think about it considering a character you hate in Cersei wins in epic fashion lol
