The final season will also see the return of some fan-favorite characters who haven't been seen on the show for a while.
Episode 1: Winterfell
The first episode of Season 8 is titled "Winterfell," and it starts off right where the last season ended. Daenerys Targaryen and Jon Snow, along with their armies and dragons, have arrived at Winterfell to prepare for the battle against the Army of the Dead. The episode is mostly a setup for the rest of the season, with many reunions and introductions taking place.
One of the most anticipated moments of the episode was the reunion between Jon Snow and Arya Stark. The two haven't seen each other since the second season, and their scene together was emotional and heartwarming. The episode also saw the reunion between Jon Snow and Samwell Tarly, who delivers some shocking news to Jon about his true parentage.
Cersei Lannister, who is still in King's Landing, is shown to be plotting her next move, while Euron Greyjoy arrives with an offer that Cersei finds hard to refuse. Meanwhile, the Night King and his army continue to march south, leaving a trail of death and destruction behind them.
Our Thoughts
The first episode of Season 8 was a slow burn, but it was necessary to set up the rest of the season. We got to see many reunions and introductions, which were emotional and satisfying. The scene between Jon Snow and Samwell Tarly was one of the highlights of the episode, and it will be interesting to see how Jon reacts to the news about his true parentage.
The episode also showed us that Cersei is not to be underestimated, as she continues to plot and scheme to maintain her grip on the Iron Throne. Euron Greyjoy's arrival adds a new dimension to the story, and it will be intriguing to see how his character develops throughout the season.
Overall, we think that the first episode of Season 8 was a great start to what promises to be an epic conclusion to the series. We can't wait to see what happens next!
