Is anyone else concerned that Tyrion's proposal to the Great Masters didn't make a lick of sense? I was literally jarred out of my suspended disbelief.

The situation in Meereen is that there is a guerrilla insurgency. Tyrion is in no position to make this kind of offer to the Great Masters, and there is no reason for them to accept even if he did.

Binged on the 6th season.

In short it was the worse season. Lazy writing everywhere and glaring mistakes. Episodes 2-3, 5 and 8 were good. 4 and 10 were watchable but still gave me the shivers.
Episode 1 and 6 were groan-fests that made me want to drop the series. 7 and 9 were below average but not as cringe-worthy.

The errors, the pandering-to-the-fans-even-when-it-doesn't-make-sense, the over-simplifications and the jaw-dropping mistakes on how battles are were too many to mention.

More or less it was as if the season was mostly written haphazardly with holes 12-year-olds could spot.

Whoa, that's the most adverse reaction I've seen in regards to GoT season. I'm rewatching through the older seasons again and still think this season was one of the good ones...

Sadly agree.

I am looking forward to the next book, which is supposed to be released this year. I wouldn't get your hopes up though.
