7 - one of the better filler episodes that we've had for a while. As I've said elsewhere, at 35 minutes I had felt the episode was almost over but then I checked the time line and was surprised to see it was only a little over halfway done.
If a filler episode can make me think I got two episodes worth within one episode, I think one can say that it's done its job.
I gave it a 5. It was good, and far better than the episode that shall not be named, but did not impress me. They somehow found a way to make Benjen's return feel wrong. If not for that, I would have likely rated it higher. In fact, the more I think about it, the lower I want to rate it, but I'll leave my 5.
I think it's time to face the music and accept that the writers are using fan theories to supplement the books. Benjen is not Coldhands, and we've known that for quite some time now. But still, you do see theories suggesting that Benjen=Coldhands all the same (though not as frequently as before).
That they would combine Benjen and Coldhands into a single character says much and more should we have the strength to see it, because make no mistake about it, that was high budget fan fiction.
Hmm. My mouse-hand is opening and closing.... Might have to downgrade my vote after all.
