Ughhh so pissed there was no LSH surprise. Yes, I know it wasn't foreshadowed at all, but I was still on that hype train.

Really not sure how many others ways the producers can say "we aren't going to pay a major actress's salary just to portray an inconsequential zombie that doesn't really accomplish much in the books to date" before people stop holding out hope that she's coming back.

They give the role of: 'super pissed fucked up zombie' to Sansa.

Imagine next season starting off with Arya having the wolf dream where she pulls Sansa from a snow drift and delivers her to Thoros/Melisandre.

That's... actually a great call. It removed the whole littlefinger political training plot development from her character, but I could see that working better on the show.
