Which ‘Thrones’ Character Won the Week?

The ‘Talk the Thrones’ team discusses the Night King’s big day

By Talk the Thrones
HBO

Jon and his crew technically accomplished their mission beyond the Wall, but in the process, Benjen Stark, Thoros of Myr, and, critically, Viserion fell to the army of the dead. The Night King, on the other hand, lost a few dozen of his numerous pawns, but had the opportunity to show off his javelin-throwing abilities and came away with a reanimated dragon. Not bad. The winner of the week may seem obvious, but the Talk the Thrones team discussed their candidates anyway.

Disclosure: HBO is an initial investor in The Ringer.
