"What a miserable affair," Tyrion Lannister reminisces Joffery Baratheon's wedding day. "It had its moments," Sansa Stark smirks.
Tyrion and Sansa's reunion was one of many epic moments from the first episode of the last season of HBO's fantasy drama, Game of Thrones.
After a two year hiatus, the Emmy-winning show returns for its final run and fans can't contain their excitement!
This is the entire GoT fandom right now.

While the first episode of season 8 has only set the tone for the next five episodes, it has still revealed the actual heir to the iron throne: Jon Snow. The Targaryen heir finally knows he's the One True King.
The episode majorly revolved around several reunions of the characters; for instance: Jon Snow - Arya Stark, Bran Stark - Jon Snow, Gendry - Arya Stark, The Hound - Arya Stark and lastly, Bran Stark and Jaime Lannister.
Twitter lit up with memes and we are too entertained to not bring you a few. Here are few hilarious Twitter reactions from Game of Thrones season 8, episode 1:

That one theory no one is talking about:
Is that a coincidence or The Night King is Targaryen? 🤔#GameofThrones pic.twitter.com/BbcTqkM88J
