In the end, I'm personally just happy that Game of Thrones was made in the first place. It was an incredibly ambitious undertaking, and even during a time period where we're constantly being bombarded by quality entertainment from all fronts, GoT stood out in the best way. Regardless of how everyone feels about how they wrapped it up - and I certainly have my issues with some of their execution, and pacing - I think we can all agree that we got some of the best seasons of television along the way. It's legacy, in my mind at least, is an overwhelmingly positive one, and hopefully it'll inspire more projects in it's vein.

Great post and I agree! I bet most viewers had issues with last couple of seasons but they did wrap the thing up in 8 years. That's something the author hasn't been able to do in two decades. We can only hope he'll eventually finish his work but he seems to have many other projects as well.

At least we could/can enjoy this epic adaption of the story in the meantime. I'm already watching it again.

At least we know Edmure Tully is still around.

Felt sorry for the dude,too kind(and clumsy) to be caught up in the Game of thrones. :p

Spoiler!
My heart broke from the look Deanerys gave Jon when he stabbed her.

Because the history of Westeros is full of people calmly choosing their next leader?  The only reason it worked this time was because the only people who wanted the throne were already dead and for some reason Dorne and the Iron Islands forgot they wanted independence.  That's not going to happen every time.

And being paralyzed does not necessarily mean a dude can't have children.  It depends on the specifics of the injury.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong on this one, but isn't Bran as the 3-eyed Raven immortal or at least long-lived?

The last 3-eyed Raven was ridiculously old, or was that the Weirwood tree sustaining him? 

Is Bran potentially going to be King for generations?

Emilia Clarke is so cute in that clip. Poor girl didn't know what to say.



I didn't watch the TV series so I just found out what happened.  I did read the books up through A Feast for Crows, though.  Part of the reason I dropped it was because the books simply take too long for such complicated material and I got tired of reading earlier books over just to remember what was even happening.  The other part of the reason I dropped the series was because I came to hate Daenerys and the chapters devoted to her.  It was like being forced to read a much lamer book wedged in with a book I was really enjoying.  There were characters and narratives I liked less than others but hers was the only one that I just wanted to skip.

So, yeah, heh.  I'm alright with that.

I'm not sure how the other part applies to my post.

Many similar moments throughout the season, off the top of my head:

  • "If you want a queen, earn her", seconds later Euron nails her.
  • Yara Grejoy rightfully protesting Jon's treason, seconds later, Yara Grejoy "aye"ing Bran as king. Everyone behaving 

Anyone can say or do anything just to make the plot move forward. Euron Greyjoy is invincible until they had to nerf him. Dragons were an easy target until they needed to overpower them. Mistakes had no consequences until they wanted a certain character to die. The previous season was just as bad but few were willing to criticize it.  

It was the season when every individual story converged, so just watching it happen and seeing all the 1st time/long awaited character interactions was enough for a lot of people.  Once season 8 came, that novelty ran out and all that was left was bad writing.
