Reviews for Game of Thrones Episode 802: 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' - Metacritic
http:/ / metacritic.com/ • cached • stripped • 1 hour ago

Thanks to some truly emotional payoffs and a steadily escalating sense of dread, 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' feels like quintessential Game of Thrones - a crowd-pleasing installment that nevertheless allows for some much-needed character progression before, presumably, the show kills half of the cast. The more I mull it over, the more I think that was a genuinely brilliant Game of Thrones episode.
