Hah! I liked it for about half those reasons (chill instead of epic, GoT The Sitcom) - and I didn't care about any ships except Brienne/Jamie, which would have been better with a little more time to work itself out, but which closed to my satisfaction with a very in-character act of loyalty from Brienne.

I'm happy for the Stark girls and I hope they figure out how to train seagulls and stay in touch. John and Arya, too. Surely they can set up some kind of seabird-raven relay system?
