Yes because Fans actively want Jon and Dany to happen in spite of the reveal. I'm not sure anyone is asking for mode sibling shack ups anyway.
Enjoying the ride this season. Lots of great scenes and character moments. We're getting all kinds of payoffs for earlier storylines.
I do hope they have one more big gut punch for fans. Jon, Dany, and to a lesser extent Tyrion have had some obvious plot armor for the duration of the show. Maybe that's hindsight talking - we may have said that about characters who are now dead at one point - but I think it would take one of them eating it to really get to fans again.
Spoiler:
I think Varys is playing for both sides and he's somehow leaking info to King's Landing. All of the allies he brought to Dany are immediately dispatched once she makes landfall at Euron's hands far to conveniently. They (King's Landing) had to be tipped off. At first I thought it was lazy writing but I now think this will be revealed to be part of a long con between Varys and Littlefinger to weed out the contenders and choose the ruler on their own terms.

The decline in quality is very obvious to those who are looking at developments through critical lens.

Originally posted by MF DELPHAt this stage why even bother. We are getting to the point of make or break it. littlefinger and varys will prove less effective attaining any goal now than ever before because we are down to the cream. Either make your play or burn the shit to the grown. Littlefinger its obvious but varys makes no sense to me

I found it a bit irritating that Dany immediately insisted that John Snow bend the knee. She's become a bit less charming lately. So it's a good thing she has Tyrion Lannister to talk some sense into her.
After waiting for so many seasons to see these characters interact with each other the interactions were very underwhelming.

Well, I actually liked the meeting with Dany/Jon. With the cinematography and beautiful location and tense dialogue it worked very well I thought.
But yeah, the Bran/Sansa reunion was mediocre/incomprehensible.

The internet's collective reaction to Dany and Jon is - generally - in disagreement. I thought the tension between their two forceful personalities was excellent.

I'll agree with Bran/Sansa, though. Although that may have been the point; in subverting our expectations of a happy reunion, they remind us that not every plot or scene is going to be as we might imagine it.
