I have no idea who Ed S. is. Was not an issue at all.
"A pregnant woman was stabbed in the stomach" "To gorey or graphic" Her name is Talisa and bruh this Game of Thrones!! This list is stupid
hodor
god how pathetic
Shiren being burnt was very disturbing
Because stannis kills gis daughter the lord of light turned against him and chose a new azor ahai: jon snow
I am glad the writer, producers and directors dont listen to the critics too much. There would not be much of a show left if they had it their way. The only thing i can see people being pissed at is Jamie rapping Cersie over their dead son, at that point his character arc had changed and he didnt seem like himself there.
Wow. Talk about hypersensitive! I appreciated all of these scenes and parts of the show. Also RIP Ramsay I miss you puppy chow
I don't understand why everyone has such a problem with Sansas rape when Daenerys was raped by Drogo in like episode 2.
I'm happy this list mocks all those who hated Ed Sheeren for no reason. Sorry: "because 'reasons'".
Only one I didn't like was the Jaime one cause it really didn't make any sense, rest is fine just typical game of thrones and honestly life itself.
Sansa getting raped was a satisfying scene for me. She's a more repulsive character than Geoffrey. I want her dead by the end of the series
Ed was fine I have no idea who he his but he was fine. His sceen may have been filler but it was good filler
All these scenes were necessary I think. Removing any of them would have lessened the brutality that made this fantasy show more true to its promise.
this list was so dumb.
Yeah, I'm sorry but the minute I saw Ed Sheeran on that episode, I was very disappointed. It brought you right out of the show, GOT isn't a show that you bring on big celebrity cameos. It's a show that gets you totally immersed in its world, so to do that brings you right out of it and into the reality of thinking "oh yeah, I'm not in this fantasy, I'm watching a very modern pop star randomly placed in it." Just too random for me. Especially because it was such an out of place scene, that you could tell was only put in JUST to show Ed Sheeran, if he hadn't been in that scene, it probably would've never even been written into the show and even if it had, would've absolutely wound up on the cutting room floor. That was definitely a misstep in my book, a little one yes, but a misstep all the same…
If you're one of those individuals who finds a show meant to be controversial… controversial to the point that you complained (especially the Ed cameo) you're probably one of the people that the Spartans would have thrown off a cliff. Change the channel to reruns of leave it to beaver and shut the fuck up.
Red wedding number 10…ok watchmojo
Some people are so sensitive

yeah, nobody bats an eye when Ramsey fed his step mom and newborn baby brother to the hounds. It's the nature of the show, these things do happened or are still happening now. Get over it, every scene is necessary to set the emotions and flow for the next scenes.
Amazing how easily we have forgotten our own history, where young girls WERE burned alive and people WERE tortured. It happened in real life…
Ramsey was a badass. Who was the overly sensitive feminist that reviewed these parts? It's game of thrones if you don't like it don't watch it. It would be no different than me bitching about MTV, BET or soap operas but still watching them daily. Weak ass people these days.
Ok this is why I don't care what critics say! The show is not for children, deal with it.
Ed Sheran's Cameo was controversial but not the other musicians who made cameos in the show? wtf
