To be fair even GRRM had very little content for Victarion and Lady Stoneheart.

I feel the public is ready for Victarion being a cuck though

I loved bad pussy and was upset when princess marjory got blown up
There are no characters left that are even mildly interesting. I guess tyrion is still around somewhere? Idk. it's been about 1000 years since the last season, so HOW can I pay attention

I miss the thing when it was a big deal. There's no must-watch TV show today, where you can ask anyone about it and they're all "Yeah man that poo poo rocks!".

Trying to remember when things started going off the rails, sometime around Season 4 / 5.

The books are far from flawless, but it does generally seem the further they deviated the dumber things got.

Oh, I thought this was generally agreed - it was when they ran out of books to follow the story and they began making up their own thing

Writer 1: "OK Guys we need to come up with some filler plot. We have a couple characters we haven't done yet, one is Theon's viking warlord uncle who gets a volcano fire arm - the other is a zombie Catelyn Stark who is hanging Freys by the dozen."


Writer 2: "What about we have one of the Sand Snakes show her tits and say 'bad pussy' to Bronn?!"


Writer 1: "SHIP IT!"

Rome also had:

- tits
- bromantic snackmen Lucius Vorenus and Titus Pullo
- pretty accurate, good-looking sets and costumes
- slave with big penis
- hot and menacing Mark Anthony
- instead of multipage food orgies they eat mice and drink lovely wine
- if it had gone on for more seasons I think elephants would have stepped on people

The show ends with older and more obese Sam hunched over a desk. On the desk is a manuscript entitled "Winds of Winter". Apart from the heading, it's empty. The camera moves over to a window and we see an angry mob gathered outside. Sam sighs and looks directly into the camera. His eyes move to the back of his head and he keels over and dies. End credits.

When did Tyrion get out of his carriage and start properly hanging out with Varys? For me that was the real "oh it's all bad now" moment. That should have been an incendiary pairing, like a constant witty, amiable battle of wits, seeing the worlds to right. Instead it just fell back on catch phrases and eye rolls. /edit: yeah I'm thinking of season 5. The dialogue just fell off a cliff.

How much do you want to bet despite there only being a handful of episodes left in a short rear end season they don't have the balls to kill any main characters until the last minute for a big Self Sacrifice Story Reason, despite the show getting famous for being ruthless with character death.

Seriously like 3-5 named characters should be dying an episode this season or gently caress it

The more I think about this the more I like it and to me this is now the canon ending.
