Pretty sure nobody in their right mind would order the Blu-Ray boxset now. So that's something.

I would have been willing to overlook the continuity errors or plot holes or even teleportation; had they not insisted on the character assassination of EVERY SINGLE CHARACTER I LIKED.
Neither the plot made sense, nor the character's journeys. It takes next-level bowels to sh*t the bed that bad.

I dont even care to rewatch it and I typically rewatch previous seasons of older/cancelled shows.

Danny goes mad and breaks the cycle.
Arya goes exploring.
Sansa becomes royalty.
John goes back to his duties on the wall after saving the North.
All this was established in the first episode. Zero point zero surprises. Zero.
The writing was just dreadful. Everything was anti-climatic. The entire show came to an absolute screeching halt. When Danny gets stabbed I’m like “ok, johns taking that dragon and burning these bastards!”. Nope. It flies off after having a tantrum.
Then I’m like “ok...the North showed up with an army. Let’s go!”. Nope. Apparently the unsullied and savages are exempt from being trialed for the mass slaughtering of people and given ships!!!
Why would the unsullied keep Snow alive? The guy was a prisoner long enough to grow a beard.
Why is there still a wall? The walkers are dead. The wildlings are cool now. Do they just hang out there?
Why would Bran get to be king?? Like, nobody understands what the hell he is. He just says really weird s***. Then he says “why do you think I came down here?”. Like, F*** you dude. Did you know this is what was going to happen? Did you know dragons were going to utterly destroy the capital and instead of telling John you just sat there in your bear fur pyjamas?
And the Ironborn! Calling out Cersei as a tyrant while the entire Ironborn fleet is lancing 10 foot arrows at Danny’s dragons! Why would Yara agree to make Bran king given the history of abalone and house Stark/Baratheon?
That last shot around the small council table was like watching the team of GoT misfits. If you pulled together a group of characters I’m least interested in that was pretty much it. And the city is utterly destroyed and what do they talk about? Brothels. Little kids with their faces melted off and these guys are telling jokes.
I would rather John walk up the Danny in front of her army in the first take and stab her in the back Jamie style and die right there and then. Die a martyr.

Well said man. Well said. It was beyond a joke of a season really and that last episode was Last Jedi bad...

and let's be honest, the majority of "fans" probably loved it and still think Dani is named Khaleesi so our opinions as usual mean very little to them.

I thought the first five maybe even six seasons of GoT were among the best of television. It is unfortunate that they got ahead of the source material. Like with a meal if the last bite is horrible, it ruins what otherwise was a great meal.

The white walkers should have won winterfell and they never should have made the “kill the king kill them all” idea.
Snow should have been made the new knight king stabbed by his undead family. All armies resurrected with three undead dragons march south taking kings landing.
John and Danny sit in winterfell and kings landing ruling over a world of undead. The cycle of man is broken.
Best ending.

They should have made you the writer.
This show better not win any awards.
