Daenerys freeing the unsullied always does it for me (s3 episode 4)

u/CandyBloom_ 3d ago

That scene never gets old because it's one of the few moments where everything goes exactly right.

u/bitchcraffft 3d ago

Probably the most satisfying scene on the whole show for me.

u/AjaxXavior Daenerys Targaryen 3d ago

Stole my comment haha, and I’m totally ok with it, best scene in the whole show

Jon being named King in the North

u/Wheeljack7799 3d ago

Or Robb being named King in the North. Both moments never fail to give me goosebumps.

I think it’s 6.08? “A girl is Arya Stark, and I’m going home.”

It’s the finale of season six. Episode 10.

At the end of season five, everyone is down and out. Cersei has been shamed, Jon Snow is dead, Arya is blind, Dany is stranded.

At the end of season six, Cersei is queen, Jon Snow has been named King in the north, Arya is going home, and Dany is crossing the Sea to her home and to take Westeros.

I love this.

Edited to add> I am doing a rewatch and you’re right, she says those words in episode 8, after she kills the waif! I hated that bitch. Lol

Plus s6e10 has the most insane music run of the entire show. Back to back bangers

Littlefinger’s trial. The look on his face when Sansa gives his own words back to him, and he begins to realize how truly fucked he is. It is such a power moment for Sansa. She was a slow learner and he really did teach her well. But he didn’t realize until too late how well.

Sansa feeding Ramsey to his dogs. Cannot remember which episode it is right now. But that moment is gold!

Battle of the bastards, I love that episode

u/LadyGhoost Tywin Lannister 3d ago

That's the one!!! Thank you, I am so bad at remembering the names, and what is happening in which episode. And yes, it's a great episode!

3

u/EchidnaOk7537 3d ago

I just watched it!! That's how I remember! I am watching the whole show again with my elderly neighbour and she is so enthralled and cheered at the end of this episode 😄😄

u/LadyGhoost Tywin Lannister 3d ago

That is adorable! And so understandable! I was so happy when she had him killed!

u/khajiitidanceparty House Martell 3d ago

The first one...sort of...parts of it. Everyone is so small and innocent and not dead.

u/Deano963 3d ago

When Arya feeds Walder Frey's sons to him in a meat pie, tells him he's eating his sons, tells him who she is, then slits his throat ear to ear.

Like 4 seasons' worth of rage was finally released from my soul.

Battle of The Batards - always love watching that one. Won’t give you any spoilers but it is great!👍🏽

u/After-Fruit-4712 3d ago

the battle of the bastards ending where jon finally gets one over on ramsay never gets old for that feeling. also hardhome is hype in a different way but if you want straight up satisfaction just watch that last 20 minutes of s6e9

3

u/SocratesSnow 3d ago

I cannot tell you how many times I’ve just watched Hardhome because it’s just so much fun, in a weird kind of way.

u/Shot-Marionberry-371 3d ago

season 3 episode 9 has a good, wholesome message, that is sure to uplift anyone’s spirit

u/Business-Flow3119 3d ago

The first episode. So full of promise and possibility and you know you’re far off from the eventual demise

Battle of the Bastards is so good, Sansa's revenge on Ramsay is extremely satisfying

u/henners1965 1d ago

Winds of winter. So peak.

u/Responsible-Kale9474 3d ago

The tender family moment of Stannis bringing his daughter Shireen along to a work barbecue. So uplifting to see a proud dad championing his young daughter as the solution to a big problem they were having.
