I liked the second-last episode of GoT better than the finale. That scene of Arya and the horse, all alone in the destroyed city, was fantastic.
It’s why I didn’t watch it when it first aired. I have a hard time with that kind of stuff. But then I became intrigued by all of the hype and caved in. I fast forwarded a lot lol but as the seasons went on it got better.Extremely unpopular opinion ahead:
I used to watch Game of Thrones but stopped years ago because of the violence, especially the sexual violence.
.
I’m going to create my own ending, lol.I wish Martin would finish the books! I want to know how his vision of the story comes out!
DRAGONS!
I was also disappointed that Brienne fell for Jaime. I did like how she wrote the ending to his story in the book though.
Let’s zoom in on the resolution of the Iron Throne plot, the show’s core concern over eight seasons.
So Tyrion is in jail, apparently for several weeks. He is brought before an assembly of the Seven Kingdoms’ most powerful lords and ladies — from protagonists like Sansa and Arya to side characters like Yara Greyjoy and whoever the new Prince of Dorne is. Everyone has apparently decided to meet to negotiate Tyrion and Jon’s fate with Grey Worm and the Unsullied, a discussion that could potentially end in yet another brutal battle if they can’t work out a compromise. The fate of the country hangs in the balance.
In the past, a meeting of this importance could have taken up an entire episode of Game of Thrones. The show would have paid close attention to each of its main characters’ objectives and approaches to the discussion, with the side characters’ interests and motivations somewhat outlined as well.
What happens instead? They decide to elect a king out of the blue, seemingly just because Tyrion suggests it. He suggests that Bran Stark, an unknown to most of Westeros’ nobility, should be king. He makes a speech about Bran’s magical powers, which no one really understands, and suggests that Bran’s command of narrative means that he should be entrusted with near-absolute power. In the show’s universe, the speech should have been greeted with as much laughter as Sam’s attempt to invent democracy.

I just watched some of the last episode and it is like they made a trashy US soap opera, threw in a lot of historical references and put British actors in it to seem more "classy", what a pile of crap.Dreadful.
I thought that was a good bit too.
