Game of Thrones Season 6 Episode 6: "Blood of my Blood"

Following up "The Door" is no easy feat; last week’s installment of Game of Thrones is already widely considered one of the strongest episodes of the series. And with the first half of the season over, the show has to dedicate this hour to moving pieces around to set up the sixth season’s final act.

Surprisingly, then, "Blood of my Blood" may be the strongest episode of the season, buoyed on the writing of Thrones veteran Bryan Cogman. This hour features no gigantic moments (Drogon excepted), but it performs heavy lifting for various characters by returning to one of Game of Thrones integral pillars: family identity.
