What to Know

Critics Consensus

Despite lacking the big action reveals of the previous episode, "Kissed by Fire" is anchored by a devastatingly intimate scene between Brienne and Jamie, and plenty of Lannister intrigue.

Jeff Spross Brightest Young Things 03/18/2019
Who knows what kind of destruction and heartache could've been avoided if one young man had been willing to momentarily swallow his pride, and trust a good - if hard - lord of the North with the truth? Go to Full Review
