Whenever there are big battles inGame of Thrones, we usually end up with a full episode dedicated to the fight.
Sure, we were also given Joffrey’s incompetence and Cersei’s drinking problem, but the episode was set entirely in the capital.
Another battle-centric episode also occurred when the Knight’s Watch attempted to stop the Wildlings from taking Castle Black.
This first happened with the Battle of Blackwater in Season 2, where Stannis Baratheon’s attempt at sieging King’s Landing took the entirety of the episode.
