Long story short, season 7's time to travel gripes aren't as bad as people make them out to be.

the worst one in Season 7 had to be the opening of (I believe it was) the last episode where bronn and jamie are standing on the ramparts of casterly rock looking down on the unsullied, and literally the next scene cut to bronn walking in to the dragon pits at kings landing where he sees tyrion for the first time. it was just so weird.

You mean Kings Landing?

Wasn't it Highgarden?

i think it was highgarden.

i just couldn't understand it. there was absolutely no segue. it was almost as if they cut a scene out between the two.

Didn't they get attacked by a dragon in between?

Ironically, S8E1 is getting blasted for taking too much time and doing too much place-setting, and yet that's the opposite of the what we're talking about here with S7.

I haven't seen or heard this criticism anywhere.

Admit you made it up.

Spoiler: show

Think my favorite scene was the reuniting of Jon and Arya as well as Jaime's first look at Bran

Wholeheartedly agree on S7's sloppiness, my least favorite season so far (after a strong season 6). Episode 6 (I think) where they go beyond the wall to capture one of the dead was the worst episode of the series by far IMO.
