It's the obvious one, isn't it? Jon Snow's hotly-anticipated comeback is the make-or-break moment of the season, and possibly the show altogether. If the writers get it wrong, not only will it spoil Season 6, but the impact of Season 5 will be significantly lessened. The Walking Dead made a hash of their big 'is he/isn't he' moment, so big shows CAN slip up. However, Thrones lives for the epic moments. It relishes the challenge of killing off enormous characters at will, and while most people are aware that this probably isn't the end for Jon, nobody has a definite idea how he can be brought back. The comeback needs to happen (if it happens) as early as possible because, let's face it, we're all madly keen to see the repercussions. There are plenty of other things that need to be handled with immense care, but if Martin, Benioff and Weiss get these 11 things sorted, they're all set for an unbelievable Season 6.
