The first three episodes have been released on Prime today. There is no discussion post about it yet and even if there is not so much going on here maybe some here would still like to and talk about this season (I do).

I haven't watched it myself yet, but I'll definitely be watching the first episode tonight.

No spoiler thoughts:

While once again it feels a bit rushed pacing at major scenes, the cinemography, costuming, acting, and choreography were all top notch. They did veer off books, but it didn't feel too off and we got to see a few major books events we've been waiting for.

Overall I really liked these first three episodes as a long term book fan, and I think anyone who's been able to hold their nose through some of the questionable decisions in the previous seasons will too. It's awesome seeing this world on screen even if you have to take it as another turning of the wheel from the one in the books.

I thought these were the best three episodes they've produced for the show so far. A little rushed in places, and a few things to make a book purist cringe, but ultimately the characters feel more like who they "should be," and I think it's finally becoming clear how they're going to speedrun some of the plot threads.

Plus the cinematography in episode 1's opening scene was really fun.

I am really excited and optimistic for the rest of the season. I was on board for the previous seasons but not exactly excited, if that makes sense.
