That's crazy talk to me. That episode featured Arya finally returning to Winterfell and her family which has taken 6 seasons and been met with constant heartbreak (i.e. how close did she come only to have the Red Wedding happen right in front of her).
It featured a bad ass training sequence between Arya and Brienne.
And after all this time, we finally got a full grown fire-breathing dragon laying waste to the Lannister army and a horde of screaming Dothraki riding into battle, standing on their galloping horses to fire arrows, etc.
That was no average episode, that was a fantastic episode with massive long awaited events and dragon porn. I mean seriously? Average? I can't even begin to understand that take.
