I do not think for a second that if it came to it Daenerys would give up the throne for Jon. Not a chance imo

But i also dont think Jon would press the issue anyway.

He might if she seems like she might be bad for the 7 Kingdoms.

During Season 6, I speculated that Cersei would go down first before the plot concentrates on defeating the WW in the big finale. However, after this first episode, with all the players gathering in Winterfell and the Army of the Dead likely hitting the place in either the second or the third episode (Personally I believe the 2nd episode will end with the dead having arrived at the gates of Winterfell, beginning their full-scale assault in the next episode) I think that's becoming increasingly unlikely. It looks like Cersei might actually outlive the White Walkers. Of course, in order for her and the GC to pose any significant threat whatsoever, the dragons have to be taken out of the equation...maybe they both die in the fight against the Night King?

Also, I'm wondering how this "Jon vs Dany as rightful heir to the throne" thing they are obviously setting up will penn out.

True. Sam telling him of his father and brother being killed and jon not being told of this did worry him a bit it seemed.

yes, but at the same time Jon gets it. He knows the weight of command and sometimes you gotta lop off a few heads

My guess, which I am stealing from a podcast I listen to, is that Danaerys will insist on executing Jaime for that kingslaying he did that one time, and assert her authority as rightful queen to do so, and Jon will be forced to contradict her to save Jaime's life.

She goes all "Fire and Blood" in Jamie's face in the preview...but to be honest, is there anyone in the great hall other than Dany herself who didn't cheer about King Aerys' death when it happened? I mean this was the guy who had Rickard and Brandon Stark murdered in the cruellest way possible and who the entire North rose in rebellion against. Seriously, Dany should have deduced by now that her father was a crazy, vile son of a bitch. If the writers aren't deliberately trying to paint her as the villain, I expect her line after "you murdered my father..." to be something along the lines of "...but you were right to do so, he was an evil man."

Im waiting for the true king Stannis Baratheon to finally reveal himself from the Wolfs Wood with an army of mecha peasants to seize the day.

Stannis is dead Huskar, and he didn't die soon enough.

If jon and kaytln can rise from the dead, why not Stannis?

Season 8 denouement: Lyanna Mormont, rightly sick of all the shite monarchs she's had to live under, invents democracy and is elected President of the Republic of Bear Island.

Hey, if he died figthing the Wildlings he would have died a hero worthy of song and Queen Shireen could have risen to liberate the Seven Kingdoms from Lannister rule and fight off the White Walkers. But we all know how that turned out don't we? Another one to the pyre indeed.

I tried to find a good Lyanna reaction gif to go here, but they were all rubbish.

This proves that the show needs more Lyanna.
