So, if the next five episodes bring as much wit to the war as the premiere did, we're in for one hell of a final season. Plus, let's not pretend as though a burning one-liner from Tyrion, Cersei, or Sansa can't be just as scorching as the fire from Daenerys' dragons.

With the very existence of humanity on the line now in this show, the need for these lighter moments has become even more precious, so it was a welcome surprise to see the series embrace them wholeheartedly in this first episode.

And not just fun as in "wow, cool, dragons" - we mean genuine, actual fun of the ha-ha variety. 'Game Of Thrones' returns with a powerful Season 8 premiere. Game of Thrones has always been a meticulously made, enthralling drama, but lately it has felt as though the series forgot it could be fun too. With the Night King's army nearing and Cersei ( Lena Headey) gearing up for a fruitless war of her own, the stakes have never been higher in Game of Thrones, and so it's crucial that we have these moments of comedy to help break the mounting tension and stop the series from becoming as bleak as Westeros.Įarly seasons of Game of Thrones excelled at this, but recently it's often felt as though the darkness hasn't been properly balanced out. Moments like this not only serve to elicit chuckles - and stop us from having to witness Jon and Daenerys in any sort of serious attempt at a seductive situation - but they're also going to become even more necessary approaching the show's conclusion. Hope you guys enjoy Im not going to put these on my main channel this time, but I really enjoy doing these Im a bit rusty, so forgive the edits, EXCITED. Game of Thrones: Will Jon Betray Daenerys? It was awkward, silly, not at all needed for the plot development, and an absolute joy. Dany instructed him not to worry and the two kissed, but Jon couldn't help himself and opened his eyes mid makeout, only to see the dragons watching him watching them.

Having arrived at a secluded waterfall, Jon and Dany prepared to have sex, but Jon could sense the dragons weren't too pleased about this. And even once Jon dismounted, the show wasn't done having a lark. Game of Thrones even managed to turn one of the series' most pivotal points - something fans have been waiting years for - into a treasure trove of laughs, as Jon's ( Kit Harington) first time riding a dragon was milked for all the bumbling physical comedy one could wish for.
