10/10 for me. Perfect finale, and I was so glad we didn't see LS. just not the right time. So the ending scene wasn't that great, big deal, I can live with that. The rest of the episode was really well directed.

This episode got a 9.8 from around 7000 viewers in IMDb. That makes it the highest rated episode of a TV show ever tying it with Breaking Bad's "Face Off". In comparison Blackwater got a 9.4 and Baelor got a 9.1.
"Face Off" was great, but come on, "Crawl Space", episode 11, was the best thing ever.
And I'd say Blackwater was a little bit better than Rains of, but these are definetly the top 2.

Wow, the rating in IMDB is UNREAL

"It's a good thing they split the book in half", they said. "the first half of ASoS is not dull", they said.
(I actually love this season because of the great acting/writing, but I still think the first half of ASoS is weak)

Well this is the first time an episode has brought me to the forums (bank holiday - time to geek out) with a comment so go easy on me, but I thought it was the best so far.. Not much happening plot wise, but the whole team has to be given credit for an excellent job in riffing on the themes and characters GRRM provided.
Clearly many of you novel purists will think this was a (relatively) sub-par episode due to how much it differed from the books. However I thought it was truly spectacular.
The sheer amount of subtlety in every scene and the way it respected the characters and plot, while admittedly straying from the purely canon interpretation of the source material, frankly dropped my jaw.
For instance, I have watched the Brienne, Roose and Jamie scene at least 4 times now and found new delight with each viewing. minor things such as the way NCW wavers his knife like a balance scale when discussing finances, and then stills the motion when talking about the consequences of displeasing his father, or GC's reaction to his immediate refusal to accept her staying as he is released. Now that is some serious top quality acting (and scripting ofc)!
Every scene simply drips care and attention and manages to pull off some pretty major script changes while staying true to the spirit of the source material. The fact that this is averaging 8/10 while doing so, tells me that despite this GOT has writers and actors that are more than capable of elaborating on the source material, plus Alik Sakharov has to be given credit for some superb orchestration... I give this a solid 10/10
Cheers! Excatcly what I was thinking. You managed to put my thoughts into words, something I can't really do because English isn't my native language. thank you :)

I can't believe some people are saying this was the worst episode yet!
I thought it was absoulutly fantastic! Great acting, Great writing. just great, enjoyed every minute. the LittleFinger speech montague... that ending shot... this is how television should be made.
Best episode yet, 10\10
How would you rate episode 306?
in E06: The Climb

Probably the most under-rated episode of the show ever. Extremely well done in every aspect- Littlefinger's speech, The wall climbing, Jamie and Brienne's dinner, Tywin vs. Olenna. Amazing writing and execution in this one, maybe my favorite episode.
