Best: Blackwater

Best episode is tough, there's so many with a terrific sequence or two but a dodgy B-plot somewhere. I went with the more focused Blackwater, it doesn't hurt that it's entirely in King's Landing which is by far my fav setting in the series.

There's plenty of other awesome ones though, shout-outs to You Win or You Die (great beginning and end scenes), Baelor (duh, the moment the show revealed all bets were off), And Now His Watch is Ended (best Dany scene), Kissed by Fire (almost voted this off the back of Jaime's scene alone, it also has great stuff with the Brotherhood and Lannisters), and others I'm forgetting.

Worst: The Last of the Starks

OK, there's a ton to choose from for worst too >_> The show took a massive step down in S5 and never regained its footing. Yes, S6 had some great payoffs (Cersei blowing up the sept remains one of my fav sequences in the entire show) but the moment to moment writing was as bad there as it ever was. I went with S8E4, the one that tipped its hand to the show's endgame. It's a terribly written rushed script from start to finish and I don't think a single character acts like themselves. I'd vote The Bells but some of the action sequences there are solid if you remove any context, and by the time the finale rolled around I had lost all investment anyway. Dishonourable mention to any episode with the Sand Snakes, late-season Littlefinger, and yes the entirety of season 8.
