Okay, I have waited long enough for most of you to have seen the series finale so here comes my not so shiny review. I felt like this whole season was hurried, disjointed and imho bad writing. Eight years is a long time for a show to run and trying to tie up eight years of story line in six bloody shows was just not fair to the fans. Sorry, it wasn't. And while we are on the subject of not fair to fans....could someone please tell George RR Martin to FINISH WRITING THE BOOK SERIES NOW? I mean, he left us with Jon Snow being murdered....and nada. But this rant is about the show, not the books. So here goes.
1. Did anybody notice how the Dothraki and Unsullied suddenly multiplied like rabbits after the siege of the Red Keep? The battle of Winterfell left very few Dothraki alive.....
2. Why didn't anyone try to put Jon on the throne after he killed Dany? He was the rightful heir. We get the big reveal of his true identity and it was a nothing burger? He deserved a better ending.
3. I hated the Targaryen insanity plot line, but it was plausible and could have been a terrific story IF WE HAD MORE EPISODES AND TIME TO SEE IT SLOWLY COME TO BE.
4. Hated, hated, hated the ending for Jaime Lannister. I knew he was going to die but I wanted him to kill that hateful sister of his instead of comforting her. So this makes the witch prophecy of little brother killing her moot. I WANTED A LANNISTER TO BE QUEENSLAYER TOO DANGIT.
5. For how many seasons has Bran been saying he was not a man anymore and then after a 10 minute debate he is named the king?
6. Watching the new council's first session....almost as bad as watching the Sopranos eat, try to park a car, and fade to rock music.
