I'll write more later but I gotta say I'm not surprised at all about the lack of quality. I thought this show has been a pile of garbage since season 5. It wasn't any worse than I thought it would be but it's as shame they couldn't exceed my expectations. Bran having "the best story" tells me all I needed to know about this show.
I think I enjoyed season 7 a bit more than you did but season 8 ending was a big disappointment. I did not enjoy watching Daeny turn evil. It reminded me of Juliette but with a twist. The twist was, Jon having the balls to kill her, which Nick never had, to do the same to Juliette. It was an enjoyment, after I had to accept how she turned .
I would have enjoyed to see a spin-off of Arya, my favorite character.
Then watching Jon sent to the Night Watch was ridiculous. Why was there still a Night Watch? The Wildlings were friendlies and allies to the Starks. There was no more Night King to make an army of the dead and the wall was breached permanently. Just too much stuff not making much sense.
Daaeny should have NOT turned evil. With a slightly overlooking of some incest, she should have married her nephew Jon and abdicate the throne to him as the rightful heir to the iron throne.
I am now anticipating how these writers are going to screw up the ending season of another favorite series of mines, remade by the BBC, called Poldark.
P.S. Weird how another similarity of GoT and Grimm sprung about. The actor playing Jon Snow married the actress playing Ygritte. They met on the set. I know DG knew Bitsie before Grimm but they only started dating and got engaged on the Grimm set, just as Kit and Rose met on the set of GoT and got engaged.
You know you are OLD, when you see the Slide Ruler you used in college selling in an ANTIQUE SHOP!!
