Thing is it p clear these two bozos dont give a gently caress. Why didnt HBO just hire new show leads after like s5 or s6?? Do they not like money?? Or just quality.. like ya knoq, they used to?

in HBO's defense, it wasn't immediately clear that A: they suck B: people will care as a moron myself, the first time I actually was like "wait what" was the episode where Dany bails out the idiots beyond the wall. I think there were some articles written about it at the time, but most people just thought it was cool. the battle of winterfell was the first time I can remember regular people revolting over the show. Obviously book readers have thought it sucked for a while, but large masses of normal people actually saying this sucks is relatively new.

It's probably some contractual thing but you would think HBO would tell them to gently caress off if they said they wanted an 80 episode series for something that actually had every reason to go the distance. Like, it's not like other shows where you have to make up story beats and it peters out, you have a guy for that that's been doing it since the 70s. "Hey, we want to end your flagship show while it's achieving fever pitch culturally and have a year long hiatus to deliver half a season, we're totally not doing this for selfish reasons" "That's great, please make sure to clear personal items from your office by Friday." But hey, you don't want the good show, you need the bad Star Wars.

If they say it's 73 episodes, better to give them what they want vs rocking the boat. Firing them could generate weeks of bad press, fan discontent, actors looking for early exits, etc. Look at all the poo poo that went down with American Gods.

Then I was really disappointed for the 23762th time.

So I heard the show was super dumb, but I also heard that the dragon queen lady went totally nuts and turned everything to ashen burned it up with air dragon. Considering that everybody in the show apparently sucks, isn't that good?
