For 3 or 4 seasons I completely ignored Game of Thrones - the name just threw me off. To some extend I'm happy I did - there was a lot of content to catch up to when I finally did give the first episode a shot :)
How'd that turn out?
It ended up in my top of all time :) Next to
The WireandBreaking Bad.It ENDED in your top of all time?
Well done for not letting the end ruin the beginning, I'll rewatch it every so often but my god it leaves a sour taste these days. The last season is enough to undo all the good work they'd done to that point, it's such a shame :(
The ending is not great, but it definitely was an ending. Some shows can't even manage that. And to me it hasn't spoilt all the previous seasons - those were solid.
Yeah I still rewatch and enjoy the heck out of it, but then the choice is either an incomplete story or a godawful ending with characters that barely resemble the ones I enjoyed initially.
I don't hate the show as a whole but it doesn't get near my top 10, yet it could've been my number 1 of all time if they turned the last 2 seasons into 4 or 5 with the same quality as the first 4 or 5.
I honestly don't even hate the final picture, it's just the complete lack of justification to get us there I can't stand, and the embarrassing endings of some characters who deserved more (or should have died sooner).
