Well all I can say is thank god true detectctive is here because this whole season of game of thrones was pointless and basically setting the stage for next season.

Pointless?
The church now has an army and they're doing work in the capital.
Danny actually rode a dragon! shite is about to get real.
John became lord commander does work on the wall, does battle with a white walker army, but gets killed in the end. Now the wall is screwed.
Stannis finally fought the battle he's been talking about for a while. Looks like he ended his career 2-2 (wins at dragon stone & north of the wall, losses at blackwater & Wintertfell.)
Arie is now a faceless killing machine.

Some super bad arse shite has happened. Now maybe you can argue the first 7 episodes built up the final 3 where most of the cool shite took place. I'm aout with that.

****SPOILERS OVER*****

Lots of "cool shite" happened, but I wouldn't say much happened to advance the actual plot.

The writers even implied this in noting much of this season sets the stage for next season, particularly relating to the missing stark brothers who were intentionally left out of this season.

These are the only real plot-advancing events in my opinion:

1. Tyrion Lannister's arrival in Mereen to join Daenery's Targaryen

2. Sansa Star's marriage to the bastard of the north

3. John Snow's death

Other than that, it was just a bunch of cool subplots.
