Ep. 2 was so damn good I think that build up is still going somewhere - or at least I hope so.

After rewatching it a couple of times I believe ep 2 was one of the best episodes of the entire series. I can't think of any recent ones that came close, recent being the last few seasons, since the show went past the books.
I rewatched The Long Night earlier and liked it even more the second time. Knowing what was going to happen allowed me to relax and pay attention to the more subtle details. One thing in particular that was tremendous that I barely noticed on first viewing was the score. The music was just amazing, beginning to end, and it really set the tone for the action. And the end of the episode, putting aside the argument about whether or not it should have been Arya and just focusing on it in terms of television production, was just masterfully constructed.
