It's official: Game of Thrones is the most hurtful entertainment experience I've ever had.

- Start date
I feel the same way, I was reading books, watching YouTube theories, playing GOT mods on every game that had it...
I haven't done any of it since the end of season 8.
I really hope the book comes out soon and delivers, I miss being a fan boy.
I did not even think it was that bad. Just the way the white walkers turned out and bran being king turned me off.

I doubt that there will be a tv show as big as Game of Thrones in our lifetime. Like op mentioned everyone from hood nikkas to suburban soccer moms were heavily invested into this show for damn near a decade. I expected the discussion around this show to last long after the final episode but it's kinda faded into oblivion.
yup. shyt was like DragonBall Z levels for regular TV land. Anybody and everybody was watching and discussing, to the point nikkas started acting like it was a badge of honor to say they never watched it.
Hell, Styles P was on hot 97 dropping in depth discussion during interviews.
D&D fukked it up so bad in the last season that they won't even do interviews in America/Canada. Facetiming interviews while hiding in Japan nshyt.

Yeah this one hurt a lot. So many hours of discussions, telling friends they have to watch it, all for D&D to ruin the GOAT show. Everything else was perfect. The sets, the actors, the CGI, all gone to waste bc of horrible writing.
I’m not saying the show didn’t follow the book, I’m just saying killing of THE ProTag before they fulfilled their story arc reeks of shock value because you know they are gonna bring him back, which makes the death inconsequential. There are clever ways to do things like that and it wasn’t done poorly, it’s just that it shouldn’t have been done at all. When I see things like that in storytelling it’s always a red flag for me because of what it tends to foreshadow

I still fukk with the Long night ep but fukk bran and tyrion and I never thought I’d feel that way about Tyrion
They way they did John the Snowman
The way they threw away the entire character development of Jaime
That’s how Cersei dies
They kept too many people alive
The night king
Showed no real build up to Dany going Mad
shyt was a disgrace ......
Add..
Lightbringer & Azor Ahai never being mentioned again
Arya spending all that time to get back to her family...for a few days before leaving them again.
Arya never telling Jon, Bran or Sansa that she killed the people responsible for betraying & killing half their family...the main reason she wanted to be an assassin, this huge ass plot point is literally never even mentioned.
Jon telling his family he’s a Targaryen...off screen.
Bran being told that he will fly....but only as a crow
millesandre struggling to light the fire when Jon is literally sat on a dragon on the castle wall
That Fight between Euron & Jaime
Not only Did Jon’s whole arc get thrown out when Arya killed the NK, but we didn’t even see them face off...not once
3 perfect shots on a dragon in a row from a ballista on a moving boat 1 episode, can’t hit a dragon for shyt with 50 stationary guns the next
Sending an entire army to their death first before using the dragons
Dragon fire being able to blast through a magically enhanced thousand year old ice wall, but not some debris from a castle Jon is hiding behind
4 random ass white walkers randomly strolling around inside the castle library when there is chaos outside, and being trapped by a wooden door when we literally just saw them burst through stone crypts 5 minutes before
Cersei not killing Tyrion on the spot outside of Kings landing and letting him speak, and walk away when she ordered a hit on him only a couple of episodes before.
Bran going from making it known he has no need for titles and that he isn’t even Bran anymore..to apparently plotting to be king all along as Bran The Broken, and letting thousands of innocents die in the process
Varys entire character, intelligence & personality being assassinated over the course of just 1 episode, they destroyed Tyrion’s intelligence too.
Grey Worm killing anyone who is a threat to their queen, except the one person who killed the Queen, they locked him up for some reason
Drogon not killing Jon on the spot for no other reason then to have him survive
The build up of the Golden company as being the biggest army in the land, only for there to only be a couple hundred of them that are wiped out within 5 minutes
Trash, sloppy, lazy ass writing, I could keep going for a long time too

I agree with all of this apart from Breaking Bad, the last season wasn’t as good as the rest but was still at least good.
Not even in the same universe.
I look back on my 2014 self like
I was out there tellin folk "Its the Sopranos of fantasy
The writing is on another level. Best show on TV
You're missing out
"Now if they ask me about the shyt I just shake my head
got over that shyt quick I knew before season ended they couldn't save it. it was just that bad... it was over.

At least if the books ever come out I got full confidence in GRRM nailing the landing. Show was clearly cut short and aborted by two con men who wanted to move on.
The way I look at it, the only way it could have been more memorable is if it was some next level incredible shyt which those dudes were incapable of doing without the blueprint of GRRM.
The fukkery that the wackness of the last season lead to. Not gonna lie had a ball
Gonna miss the film room threads them shyts was classic
