I can't believe I've waited 8 years for the game of thrones finale and they've managed to make it this awful. What a waste of so many hours.

SPOILER WARNING, although if you haven't watched it yet, get a wiggle on!



I think I am in the minority who enjoyed the recent episode,
Varys got caught being Varys and earned a memorable death (there is definitely more to this too, Varys was being quick because he had to be. I think Tryrion got a warning from Bran in epsiode 2 about how crazy dany was and passed this info on)
Dany went full mad queen which has been teased for a few series
Jon no longer knows what to do

Genuinely wasn't sure if Arya would survive at one point
Cersei's death was good although I get why people are annoyed with it.
Qyburn's death was brilliant.
Euron got what was coming to him
And we got the fight between the hound and the mountain.
GOT is like no other series, some characters arcs get completed while others die before their time.

Would I have done a few things differently, definitely. I would of had Cersei getting killed rather then being led down a dark alley. And probably had a bit more politics thrown into the series with a few additional episodes.
But this was never going to please everyone, when these things have such huge fandoms the fans tend to create better story lines then the writers.

Yeah as much as I feel the last couple of seasons have felt very fast and rushed, and this season the most victim to that and certain big moments haven't felt right to me or gone how I think they should go from an organic and logical story point I would go as far to say I hate this season but feel indifferent at times

As for the final season 'ruining it' I don't agree with that as it doesn't take away the great viewing experience I've had along the way. As Tony stark said "part of the journey is the end" and I would add that no matter when the end comes we will always have that journey

It's like saying just because you don't win the title at the end of the season there was no point

They have definitely rushed the final series, and could of easily made it to ten episodes, but I think the last episode will tie up a lot.

GOT has been brilliant and is definitely something that will be high up in tv history.

I’d also say it’s felt quick compared to the first seasons as they could be slow and build up characters etc, now we know the end is near (at least for this story) it will feel like it’s motoring to the end.

I just hope we see a few missing characters in the final episode like yara and I hope bran is the way he is for a reason and doesn’t just plateau. If he does he will surely go down as one of the more disappointing characters.
