FUCK JON SNOW.
Let me throw in some salt.
I don't know how to feel about last episode. I thought the previous one was honestly better despite it's flaws.
I agree with ThunderHorse. Some scenes really made no sense.
First Rhaegal gets riddled with laser/wire guided bolts shot from 5-10 km.
- also, yeah, nobody saw the enemy fleet from a massive keep overseeing the entire ocean ?
But when Drogon and Danaerys charge at Euron's fleet, all of a sudden you see proper firing arcs, everyone misses and the main target get's away .... what .... ?
You are telling me, of all people, Cercei would miss the opportunity to kill her nemesis right there where she stands, just outside the wall, with only a handfull people, while there are at least a dozen ballistae aiming at their heads ? .... Cercei ?
I wished the writers cared more about consistency and such details, because at some point it just starts looking stupid, and being a fantasy genre is not an excuse. Fantasy doesn't mean you should abandon logic entirely.

Last episode was even dumber than Episode 3. Slowly losing interest, and faith, in this show.

Why do I hear Sarah McLachlan in the background....
I do hope he actually said goodbye, but we didn't see it.....one can hope Jon wasn't a dick.

WTF. We spent more time on Jamie/Brienne's shitty highschool romance than on, oh I don't know... the movement of the northern army, how the fuck Euron figured out the avenue of approach and laid an ambush, how the fuck Cersei's folks managed to mass produce the Scorpion and perfect aiming and tactics, whatever the hell the goddamned plan is for King's Landing, and half a dozen other major plot elements. Because we need to see a mediocre game of "never have I ever". Right. 
Also:
- casually killed a dragon in all of about 2 minutes flat (and apparently dragons/Daenerys aren't smart enough to fly over the weapons, WTF?)
- Cersei, who has demonstrated greater cruelty than Genghis Khan, Atilla the Hun, and Vlad the Impaler combined gets a hold of a single POW (another WTF? You only captured one and it just happened to be a main character? Bullshit.) and *doesn't* exact some kind of stomach-turning torturous death on her? We saw worse from Khal Drogo.
- On that note, if you're good with sending a message by killing Missandei and making sure you light Dany's fuse, what's stopping you from killing Dany right there, along with what - at this point - must be about half her remaining forces? Or is this some variable-force-size bullshit, where from scene to scene the size of the formation changes at the whim of the director?
- You have ONE direwolf still alive, and Jon Snow just decides he's done with Ghost? And doesn't even say goodbye? What a piece of shit.
Between all of the above and an unedited Starbucks cup, HBO isn't even lifting a finger in effort.
Oh, and you're thinking about spinoffs? Go eat a wildfire-infused cauldron of dicks.

Some Fog FX would have really served them well here

I think both the characters or show writers are very bad with numbers.
You clearly see the last battle cost them dearly, near total in losses. Absolute phyrric of phyrric victories.
Yet they maintain that they've suffered only 50% casaulties that day. Watt lol
That would have been good cinematography, and a much better plot. The dragons are flying along, everyone's minding their own business, oh crap a little fog, well it is the ocean that happens, we'll fly down and get under it... OH MY GOD GIANT BALLISTAE
Two things:
1) Dragon #2 taking a bolt to the chest should remind everyone just how important SEAD/DEAD is
2) Gendry proposing to the first girl he boned is just about the most enlisted thing ever
