"The Last of the Starks" was a fascinating lesson in how Westerosi official histories come about. Go to Full Review

I didn't think the episode, called "The Last of the Starks," was particularly smooth overall. Go to Full Review
Kimber Myers The Playlist 05/08/2019
"The Last of the Starks" begins in mourning with a few sad moments, but this is a mostly sunny 80 minutes compared to "The Long Night." Well, except for that last 20 minutes. Go to Full Review

Nothing that couldn't have been told in 15 minutes, which could have been integrated with another more exciting episode. Go to Full Review
