Just wanted to say, while I’ve enjoyed your responses to the GoT episodes, and I agree that there are some distinct flaws and occasional moments that go beyond willing suspension of disbelief (re: Arya stumbling through Braavos after multiple twisting knives in the gut–even if they missed all her major organs, there’s no way she could do that), I still enjoy the show for its performances, brilliant editing, and glorious production values. For all the absurdities, it’s still a fun show.

I would strongly quibble with brilliant editing – I find the show cuts back and forth way too much and benefits from the rare occasions when it sticks in one place for a length of time. 

But I wouldn’t disagree with the thrust of the comment. The acting is good even if the writing isn’t, and the action sequences are excellent.
