Sunday night's penultimate episode of 'Game Of Thrones' is the most controversial, epic and divisive one yet. Here's why.

Sunday night's second-to-last episode of Game Of Thrones is also one of its most controversial.was . . . incredible. It's bound to be one of the most controversial episodes of television ever made. I loved it and hated it and I think it could have been the perfect culmination of everything this show ever set out to do, if only they'd earned it. If only HBO had taken the time necessary to get to this insane moment of fire and blood.

Instead, I'm left wondering why Euron ever had a victory. Why didn't Daenerys burn his fleet to ashes last week? Why did Missandei ever have to die? It began with Tyrion tattling on Varys, after the Spider tried to recruit Jon Snow to his cause. The Spider should have waited. Had it been book Varys instead of TV Varys, he would have waited. After all, once Jon saw Dany go mad with revenge and bloodlust, he would have joined Varys's coup without flinching. Varys survived many mad kings and queens. Why was he in such a rush now?Daenerys wasn't surprised by the betrayal. She lumped Jon and Tyrion into it, for good measure.

I want to love this episode so badly. It was, truly, great television. The music, the cinematography, the acting . . . all brilliant. But a rushed story is a rushed story.We also got Cleganebowl, at last. I liked it, too. I liked the fight between Sandor and his undead brother, a dog barking at a boulder, the beauty of the backdrop contrasted with the ugliness of these two killers. It was as epic a fight as any I've ever seen.

Never have I ever loved something so bittersweet. I loved this episode, but it wasn't supposed to be this easy--not just for Daenerys and Jon and the victors of this battle, but for any of us. We were supposed to travel to this place in time, this battle of battles, this storm of swords, this dance of dragons. Instead, we fast-traveled. And here we are.I liked the fight between Jaime and Euron, but it was still a cartoon fight that had no meaning. Intense and empty. Contrived.
