GoT is eating the greatest tub of ice cream you have ever had and then finding a dead rat at the bottom.

im glad Ned's death is appreciated for how shocking it was. When I first saw the episode, I remember thinking, "alright, this is stupid. I know we want the stakes to be high, but how can he possibly get out of this situation without it being super forced?" and then he just... doesn't, and it changed the way I saw the show completely.

"Robert's Rebellion is built on a lie" Yeah, or maybe you know, it's built on the fact the King burned the Warden of the North alive, murdered his son, then ordered the heads of the new Warden of the North and the Lord Paramount of the Stormlands. Nah, I'm sure that has nothing to do with it.

I think that too often, Charles Dance is given the undisputed title of "Best character performance in GoT", and while I don't deny it's an amazing performance, Mark Addy's short-lived, bombastic, and memorable performance as Robert Baratheon deserves more than an honorable mention; he should be a damned contender. He had 7 episodes to work with, and he made brilliant use out of every second. He could be jovial, brotherly, argumentative, proud, wrathful, sympathetic, vulnerable, pensive and belligerent. As a character, he hit more emotional beats than most characters do in the entire show, and did so in less time than most of them had. And Mark Addy nailed every scene of it. GoT's portrayal of Robert Baratheon is one of the most fully realized, well-rounded characters in the show.

By saying, “why do you think I came all this way?’l in the last episode, Bran exposed himself as a sadistic, twisted, psychopath who sat on crucial information that could’ve saved millions of lives, all so he could become King. All of this despite the fact that he clearly stated he couldn’t be Lord of anything in previous episodes. Seriously, the writing is SOOO bad it had to be intentional.

"Hodor had remained a fan favourite this far into this series in no small part due to the writer's inability to make him say terrible dialogue." I love Glidus

"Ned's death may be the defining moment of game of thrones, it's either that or..." I love how literally every single person watching this knew what was coming as you said that. Well played.

The thing I love about Blackwater is that, at its core, it's a story about the two most likeable characters in the show trying to kill each other, for completely understandable, completely honourable reasons. It's why Davos treating "last time I was here you killed my son with wildfire" as a bit of banter later on is so fucking insulting.

Regarding the Red Wedding, I have to praise the book-reading community for not giving up the game beforehand.

This is like watching the series backwards on fast forward...

People don't like Ygritte's death? Damn, it definitely makes my top 5. That shot of Jon cradling Ygritte as the camera pans away, the battle continuing on behind them as no one even notices whats happened, gets me every time. And the fact that Olly was the one who killed her, a kid who neither Jon nor the audience can even be mad at considering his established motivation, showcases that nuance the first couple seasons did so well.

The thing that's incredible about the Red Wedding is how rewatchable it is, i watched it 3 times and it made me shocked everytime, how they made the wedding so fun, so wholesome and heart warming seeing chadmure being happy about his wife and the jokes they told eachother sometimes even make you laugh, Until that door is closed..... And then it turns into an absolute fuckfist of a wedding, you can see how robb got broken from the betrayal, the last scream of caitlyn haunts some of us to this day

Red Wedding is so powerful every show started copying it and none reached the level of impact Red Wedding had.

I know it’s been two years but the insane accuracy of the “the only good thing that came out of this shot stain of an episode was the huge number of people who realized they could write a better story than this major studio production” line is genuinely off the charts

2046 after a dream of spring is realeased: Every ASOIAF Chapter Ranked.

The way they did Meera will forever scar me. She did so much and they just threw her away.

"No One" is the episode that snuffed out any remaining hope I had for the show. Specifically Arya's storyline. The whole point of the faceless men's training is to erase any personality of the trainee, creating "no one," a person that can become anyone. All of that had been clearly established at that point, so it was extremely fucking baffling when Arya, despite literally blatantly rebelling against the training, is declared to have "become no one" by Jaqen H'gar. What makes it even more *insulting* is that when she walks out on him (despite apparently succeeding in her "no one" training) he literally just *lets her*. She has intimate knowledge of the inner workings of one of the most powerful and secretive organizations in the world AND HE JUST LETS HER GO ON HER MERRY WAY WITH NO REPRECUSSIONS. What a fucking joke.

1:33:17 GRRM talked about this scene in an interview once. He said Meereen was supposed to very multicultural and wasn’t meant to come off as this white saviour scene, but the scene was filmed in Morocco, so all the extras were Moroccan.

This video changed more after its resurrection than Jon Snow.

Dude just made and edited a 2 hours long video about every GOT episodes ever made, arguing and bringing up valid points, for the 10 tears anniversary of the show. I've never felt so much respect for a stranger than I do now. Glad I watched all of it

Im glad actors like Faye Marsay who plays the Waif was able to get another chance to show off her acting chops in Andor. The difference between those two performances really shows you how long of a way actual good writing can go

Rhaegal’s death in “The Last of the Starks” makes it the show’s worst episode for me. Out of all the known dragons that have ever lived in Game of Thrones history, only one (Meraxes) has ever been shot down by a scorpion bolt before Rhaegal. And that was a very very lucky shot, they had already fired hundreds before that one hit. Euron hitting and killing Rhaegal on the first try from that distance is actually impossible. Can not be done

Always remember, the Sand Snakes were able to kill Myrcella because the Martells and Lannisters allowed her would-be assassins/kidnappers to see her off. For no reason. From that moment on I knew the show would be garbage.

Brianne closing the kingsguard book before the ink gets to dry is the best analogy i have for season 8( i didn't come up with this analogy. I saw someone else use it but i don't rember their name)

For me, it's "Fire and Blood" because it understands, on a fundamental level, how it's the *character dynamics* that make the show, not the flashy moments, and how well it handles those character moments. Ned's death is a hugely impactful moment and a lot of "Fire and Blood" is basically just saying "alright, this massive world event just happened - how would the main characters react?" It provides such good character defining moments that kickstart the show past its first arc *along with* the big moments like the dragons or the King in the North scene.

Dumb & Dumber were so obsessed with being “unpredictable” that they ruined everything.. what’s more frustrating is that all of this would’ve been avoided had they ignored their egos and just gave the task of writing to other more capable writers the moment they realized they have reached their creative limit/lost all passion for the project. It’s honestly fucking tragic, but I won’t allow that to ruin my experience with the earliest 4 seasons and the books.

I don’t want to imagine what D&D would have done to Tywin if he didn’t die in S4.

Cold take: the most consistently good part of the show is the score. The amazing score during the climax of The Long Night (and during Melisandre's death) tricked me into thinking it was an amazing episode for a long time. That being said, the scene with Arya in the library (other than the part where she teleports out from under the table somehow) is amazingly done

Oh come on. Bronn’s reaction to hearing the name Dickon was one do the best moments of that season.

"Davos tells Eunuchs to start families" made me seriously lol, but that's literally what happens. I think it's amazing that the writing got to the point that something that could have been in a legitimate parody made it into the show, but they still somehow removed all the comedy out of it.

I’m so glad someone else is giving The Watchers on the Wall the attention it deserves, it is like the culmination of everything great about Jon’s story

Watching this has made me realise that you could put on pretty much any episode from those first 4 seasons and you’re having a seriously great hour of entertainment, with or without context.

"I'll cover it in the piss take before too long" Glingo lied as easily as he breathed

Only 6 more to go before this video will have come back more times than Beric : )

I recently watched 'The Last Watch' documentary for season 8 again, and it just made me sad. All these extremely talented people working incredibly hard to create a satisfying conclusion to the biggest show of all time, and yet season 8 is considered to be a complete disaster. Even though the writing was atrocious towards the end, it's worth acknowledging that everything else in the show (the acting, sets, costumes, music, special effects, etc.) is absolutely phenomenal throughout. It took them two years to give us six episodes. If not for D&D, the final season of Game of Thrones could have been the greatest thing to ever be put on television. It's just tragic...

The Watchers on the Wall was always my favourite battle episode, even though I could never truly explain why. The best I can do is that the mix of epic and emotional is perfectly stirred. Grenn Giantslayer, you're a real one.

You left out the best part of Blackwater. "Any man dies with a ckean sword, I'll rape their corpse!" is the absolute PERFECT line for the Hound leading his men into battle.

Going worst to best is such an emotional catharsis. I spent the first 30 minutes of the video wanting to abandon this world and never watch another asoiaf theory video. By the end I wanted to rewatch the first 4 (or maybe 5) seasons and finish the books.

GENDRY GETS DRAGGED KICKING AND SCREAMING BACK INTO THE PLOT 😂😂😂😂

12:30 "Fever dreaam of a scene" Exactly. When I first saw the episode, the death of Raegal felt so free, out of nowhere, easily avoidable and weirdly presented that I thought Dany was having a nightmare about losing her dragons until it was made clear it actually happened.

I have a lot of thoughts on this, but I just wanna say how much I love it when other people appreciate Littlefinger for the mastermind he was in the first 4 seasons. He was my favorite character, but he was done SO dirty simply because D&D have no idea how to write characters like him. So many people laugh at me when I say he's my favorite, but they just remember the idiot from Season 7 who only existed to be stupid and be the Stark's punching bag. The man who set in motion basically the entire war of the 5 kings deserves better.

I got very upset around Battle of the Bastards about people saying Rickon should have zig-zagged. Like YEAH that's one of the more minor things to complain about but also it actually makes sense that in that bullshit scenario, a small child would run in a straight line to his brother.

Karl Tanner needs more love. He was a fucking legend in Gin Alley.

The Long Night was the lowest point for me. One episode. ONE?!! Ridiculous. Everyone was like "Oh cool, Arya killed the Night King!" and I was heavily depressed because I knew there was no going back... So sad ):

"Tommen banning trial by combats to ensure that nothing interesting could possibly happen" fucking KILLED me LMAO

Why is this guy so underrated

I'd prob do: 1. Red wedding 2. Watchers on the wall 3. Blackwater Red wedding changed the TV game. It defined a generation of TV watchers, launched the "I react to xxx" genre into popularity. Ned's death was the first massive shock to TV, but the Red wedding destroyed it. No longer a sweet summer child

I love Harry Lloyd! (Viserys) Every thing that he says and does is epic! He's most definitely one of the more polished and seasoned actors in the series. Right up there with Sean Bean and Charles Dance.

"At Jahaka" "Ath jahhka" "AT JAHAKA" I don't know why this always make laugh but it does

I'm still obsessed with the early seasons of GoT tbh 🤣

Glidus is releasing alternative editions of his work now. Mad lad

I absolutely LOVED Jaime’s side of the story in the book, and I loved that the show did it some relatively good Justice. Jaime is such a good character that I hope the books (or at least the winds, hoping we get it) don’t squander like the show did. Not trying to bash season 8 more than it already has been. But as Jaime is one of my favorite characters, I am glad to see that scene get the love it deserves.

It's really weird how Maise was obivously so out of place playing the Mary-sue-"Priest who trained for a couple of weeks and now is like a demigod"-character... She plays S1-S4 Arya very well, amazing performance. The fake conflict is just so unbelievable...

I realized this on my most recent watch through.. Miranda’s father is the kennel keeper. So that means if Ramsay is feeding her good meat to the hounds… her dad is going to have to butcher his own daughter and watch her be consumed. He’s even more of a monster than we realized!

who else is feeling hype for pisstake season 6?!

12:53 Gligar, I’ve listened to your feature film at least 3 times over the last year, and this is the first time I’ve caught that “nice.” Nice.

I remember one of my favourite moments in the show was when Sam gave the eulogy. The moment he said Targaryen I remembered the dialogue between Jon and Aemond how his vows were tested.. when he heard about the children.. and the. Again when he said „A Targaryen alone in the world…“ an Jon Snow shows up in the same camera angle just being focused. I realized for the first time in that what he has done for Jon he did help his family and no matter how it truly end at least in the show he truly kept the legacy of his family and name alive by helping Jon Targaryen… it was a really sweet moment to just realise all that.. it was around the same time I started reading the books when that episode came up and I already had confirmed in my headcanon who Jon truly was.. from story.. it’s my favourite moment of the whole show/story. And in HotD there is already a similar moment. At a dinner, Viserys looking at his family.. being able to die in Bliss…

I feel so bad for all the ppl who worked zo hard on the show; actors, costume creator, decor creators, special effects ppl and probably more. They where screwed over even more then us.

See? Glidus could do an edit of HIS video to cut out the bits someone didn't like. Ball's in your court, D&D.

i literally cannot express how just amazing the watchers of the wall is. it makes me so happy you put it as your number one it is such an under appreciated episode that really made me see game of thrones for the masterpiece it is. i love it so much

agree with you a lot except for the brienne vs. the hound scene. i love that scene honestly. i don't think it's weird that they stumbled upon each other considering brienne was actively looking for the stark children, and i saw someone's explanation once about how brienne and the hound actually have no reason to believe each other (why would the hound believe that any lannister sent brienne on a goodwill mission, and why would brienne believe that the hound had good intentions toward arya, they wouldn't so the fact that neither believes the other's reasoning actually makes total sense). yeah most of the fight scene is badly edited but it has some pretty sick moments and imo helps both establish brienne's fighting prowess (aside from renley's tournament all of her fighting scenes previously were against disadvantaged foes) and also shows growth in her character from someone with a very strict honor code to someone more flexible, and i thought the final scene w/ the hound and arya was great, too. it would have been better as a moment in arya and the hound's relationship if his return to the show later hadn't been meaningless like everything else in the final seasons but oh well. edit: also i'm not sure why we're confused about dany being fireproof when it's established she's fireproof in fire and blood (and also possibly one of her very first scenes when she gets in the too hot bath?) but that's a minor thing.

You have my like just for putting in all these Chapters in the video

Great, now I have to type my comment on the other video again: "Watchers on the Wall is just Blackwater but better" is a hotter take than I was prepared for, but I cannot dispute it.

Throughout me watching this video I was thinking about which episode was my favorite, and Watchers on the wall really stood out to me. I'm not engaged in any GOT community so I had no idea that other people liked that one specifically. I obviously knew people love the red wedding etc, but Watchers on the wall was not what I expected. I was scared that yoh weren't gonna put it high up on the rankings, and when you reached the top 3 I surely thought you hadn't included it. (As in you didn't mention anything special about it so I missed it earlier) I am so happy to see you out it as your nr 1. I obviously agree, and I also feel validated hahah

Kinda crazy how Gidus's number 1 episode is immediately followed by his number 43 episode (chronologically). That must have been a pretty disappointing fall in quality for him 😂

susan doesn’t deserve your banger content king 😔👑

it is fascinating to see how vastly different the show became in the later seasons, its like seeing 2 100% different series

Love your take on rank 51. I agree completely with that initial take on it, and I can already tell you're going to explain it's placement very well.

Yeah yoren is my favorite character. Perfect casting and perfect portrayal and they even gave him a backstory in the show that was never explained in the books. It's one of those times the show enriched the story from the books. Very rare

Some comment I read on another video said, that the long night episode was the equivalent of Hermione killing Voldemort in the sixth book and the seventh book is all about Harry trying to win the quidditch world cup against Slytherin. xfuckingd

You wanted to make money off of hours and hours of work? And you said two bad words worth a second? Yah sorry bud!

I'm shocked that Beyond The Wall (S07E06) isn't in the bottom 5, I tend to rank it there. It has all the hallmarks of later Season 8 Also man this really makes me realize just how much Seasons 5 and 6 are carried by the performances and the production values. And yeah, I honestly agree with your favorite, I loved Watchers on the Wall (even if I prefer Hardhome as a battle).

Me and my kid we’re CRACKING up watching this. Omg, you have a new subscriber. When you would drop the F 💣 I couldn’t hold it together! Your voice. Your comedic timing. You got it man🙌🏾👏🏾🙌🏾👏🏾

One thing I noticed during this video: In the episodes that GRRM writes, Jon seems more like book Jon. I hate David Benioff and D.B Weiss

I’m so glad u said Jaime’s bath scene was the best scene, completely agree, Nikolaj crushed it

I don't care how many times I've watched this, I need it more. The pure Glidus Comedy

Not the Wojicki cut but the first cut was my first ever Glidus video, one year and one day ago today… I remember that day fondly. Thank you for ushering us into the post Wild Type wave of COVID and bringing some real enjoyment joy back into my life with your Game of Thrones content. Oh and keep singing :)

48:45 - "The Broken Man" - Arya getting attacked by the waif. Yes, agreed. It's just so, so silly that it wrenches you right out of the viewing experience. Season 1 - Drogo received a small flesh-wound. Wound turns septic and he is certain to die until Daenerys employs "blood magic" to save him. Harsh outcome but entirely plausible in a world without antiseptics and modern medical practice. Season 6 - The waif SLASHES her across the lower belly . In and of itself a likely fatal wound as this would certainly slash intestines. You would not be able to move for fear of your ruptured /cut open guts falling out. THEN she stabs her in the gut... deep, to the hilt of the dagger. THEN she stabs her again in the gut, deep, to the hilt of the dagger. THEN she twist the knife viciously. Then Arya jumps off the bridge spinning quickly in the air (guts should be everywhere) to land in the stinky sewage-infested canal, where she swims off and then after a little walk, she gets into Lady Crane's place. Guts should have fallen out from the slash. Stab wounds were both "bleed to death" types of wounds, rupturing intestines and liver, all three very serious mortal wounds as this is a deadly combination as your fecal matter basically spills into your blood stream and your liver is FUBAR. (Any major stab wound to the liver is a 100% guaranteed slow and painful death). The canal-swim should have been a guaranteed fatal wound-infection. So in all.. Arya should have been dead 5 times over but she is perfectly fine just a couple of days later (someone would probably never truly recover from even ONE of the knife wounds). And GoT goes from being quality entertainment to utter sheet in one episode.

*BEYOND THE WALL:* I seriously would’ve facepalmed less, if they went on a “fishing trip” -by having Dany fly them over a group of “walkers”, tie Tormund/the Hound/Gendry/etc. to the end of a rope and lower them down to nab a juicy “walker fish” and fly away.🤣

I didn’t think anybody else had the same episode at #1 as me and I was looking for it the entire video and got so excited to realize you had there as well.

Glidus, I'm a big fan of your work, you're a unique voice in the community and it's appreciated. Your list was a lot of fun and while it's not exactly the same as mine I'd have been a little unnerved if it was. Your genuine enthusiasm as well as the other talented creators you snagged for the video (and that degenerate Alt Schwift X) describing your favorite episodes was a real highlight. I have the same top three episodes in a different order, my preference is Blackwater 1, Watchers on the Wall 2 and Fire & Blood 3.

"...antithetical to GRRM's" style of storytelling (or whatever he said, I don't remember verbatim) - you could not be more correct. We have heard _countless_ times that GRRM had abandoned planned narrative because of the organic growth of his characters and their respective journeys, as he sees them developing. Such an underrated point that really fucked this show up.

Hey Glidus. Quentyn is alive. No, I will not elaborate.

Great video man 👍 can’t imagine the work you put in

Big up to all of us who watched this entire video with a heart filled with gratitude toward you who made it !!

Personally s04e10 “The Children” had more of an impact on me emotionally than any of the other episodes. Peter’s performance is at his peak just slightly above e09. That would be the only one I would have done higher on the list. Everything else is spot on.

Even without thinking about D & D, just as a cold observation, The Long Night really felt like a bunch of people not associated with the show had come in and got paid to quickly resolve a bunch of stuff, finish a bunch of storylines in one place. Without having watched the show or having any emotional connection with it. It was a supreme hack job.

What an absolute gem of a video. I enjoyed every second of it. And while I might've placed some of the episodes a little higher (Hardhome or The Winds of Winter) I totally agree with your argumentation and I'm all for it. And if I were to choose I'd pick The Watchers on the Wall as the best episode too!

Idk if you get these comments frequently, but I wanna say the editing and script are all top quality here. Epic content Glidus. Thank you. One of the GOT YT GOATS. MANY ACRONYMS ❤

Well, here’s my excuse to watch this masterpiece of a video again

I've officially re-watched this list more than I've re-watched GOT since the ending.

Nice list, mine is quite similar. Although I'm not gonna rate all 73 73. The Iron Throne 72. The Bells 71. Beyond the Wall 70. The Dragon and the Wolf 69. Unbowed, Unbend, Unbroken (...) 5. Blackwater 4. Fire and Blood 3. Baelor 2. Kissed By Fire 1. The Watchers on the Wall But I think The Winds of Winter would be in my top10, top15 at least. I just absolutely adore that sept scene. I think I watched it 10-15 times more than any other scene in the series, probably any series. It's just pure perfection. The lack of consequences for Cersei is not the episodes fault.

great job on this video! i cant imagine how long this took. 💯❤

You're the only person I know who actually calls Littlefinger Petyr and I don't hate it

When tyrion says the line about kings dropping like flies you forget that renly had also died. 2 kings dying within a very short time of one another even if we ignore Robert's death in this equation the war of the five kings saw 2 factions lose their leader very quickly.

absolutely grand huge thanks 🔥

I was sceptical for the first 80 minutes if I really want to watch this video but the explanation for number 32 totally sold it.
