It's still one of the top rated shows in terms of praise. Despite how much some people didn't like the final season, it wasn't enough to make them hate it as a whole. On IMDb it's ranked as the #6 show, only behind Band of Brothers, Breaking Bad, Chernobyl, The Wire, and Avatar the Last Airbender.

Sansa became unredeemable on the show after the battle of the bastards. And she was already on incredibly thin ice.

Jaime was one of the most butchered characters in the ending. Throws away all his character development out of nowhere to go die in a way that absolutely no viewers wanted. I was thinking more about how he was portrayed in the later seasons/series as a whole moreso than the ending. Like, I thought he was easily the most interesting main character in the last half of the show. And while I didnt like his ending, I at least understand it and I think they actually did a decent job of showing why he made that choice and made him sympathetic. Which makes his ending better than Jons. Or Daenerys. Or Bran. Or Sansa. Or Arya. Or Tyrion. Or Varys. Or LittleFinger ok maybe I am way more cynical about this show than I realized. --- I live on, THROUGH THIS SEASHELL! VeryInsane's mobile account ... Copied to Clipboard!

None though worse than Stannis You could honestly say that whole Dorne storyline was such a dumpster fire that those characters were done worse, and LittleFinger/Varys went from masterminds in the books to simpletons in the show, but yeah Stannis jobbed out to make Ramsay the big bad of Season 6 --- I live on, THROUGH THIS SEASHELL!

Ultimately a very good show with some seriously bizarre decisions (such as making the final two seasons shorter) towards the end

I was falling off the show long before the end, but my god that final season managed to ruin every character left that I liked. Terrible ends for all of my favs and pretty much everybody left alive is just an unlikable hypocritical asshole by the end. And of course nothing about the plot made sense, but that had been true since s5 or so.

It was just a disaster; the good characters got a crappy end, the bad characters got a crappy end, they even managed to ruin the character of the dragon who up till then had two intrinsic character traits; be loyal to Dany and breath fire and then his final act is to do neither.

I feel like it got worse and worse so slowly that it was hard to notice. There were definitely more bad parts as it went on. Most of it was still okay compared to most TV. I wish the final season had at least been on a season 4-5 level. God it could have at least been the same amount of episodes as every other season Im sure it wouldnt have been perfect but it would have helped substantially.

God.
Fuck this show. Fuck Weiss and Benioff. It's fine if they at least tried with the last couple seasons but it didn't land right (see: Star Wars Ep. 8). But Season 6 and especially 7 are just so aggressively and offensively lazy that it pisses me right off.

andylt 04/20/21 8:10:18 AM #42: |
It was clear very early on that D&D weren't very good when going off book, and naturally that just got worse as things went on. I think Season 6 fooled a lot of people into thinking it was back on track at the time, but really it just had some great climactic book moments from Winds we haven't seen yet, the rest was still awful.
Still it is quite impressive that they screwed up the last season so badly that even the most casual fans turned diehard against the show. It's like it was intentional! --- Slowly becoming a Final Fantasy aficionado. Next up: Final Fantasy IX ... Copied to Clipboard!

Theres not even a satisfying/logical end point where you can go, watch it but stop here to a new fan like you can say for other horrible finals shows like Dexter. Its one continuous thing that doesnt end till the finale poisons it all the way down. I got so obsessed into GoT when I watched it, knew all the houses, got the first book hardcover, knew expanded stuff, spent hours reading speculation.. it was so good! But it salted the earth and I never wanna hear about Game of Thrones again. No happy emotions at all thinking about it now.
