This season feels a bit like it's stalling for time. Which is weird to say, because a lot of really huge things happen. A couple storylines - the ones about characters in the north - have fully functional arcs, but I don't really care about those characters. The good characters' stories are just starting to get going when the season stops abruptly. Basically, seasons 1-4 were one big 40-episode season, and season five is like the beginning of a second giant season. I envy people first watching the show 5 years from now, who actually get to watch complete stories.
