This is one of those horrible ideas that are created in board rooms by money hungry executives with no common sense. Game of Thrones as a story is OVER, Jon snow's whole arc was about the walkers and his parentage. Now that both have been resolved there is no point in trying to bring his story back, it's like they are trying to piss off fans. Just mindless thinking
I would like some more development and reaction to Jon learning his true parents. they rushed a lot of shyt but i wanted to see more of a reaction from Jon

just make a season 9 to fix shyt

because there's no way that's how it ended.
The ending is fine and was foreshadowed in the books

The problem wasn't the ending it was the destination

Character favoritism (Tyrion, Cersei, Dany) and dismissiveness are what killed the show

I agree with you about 95%.

I'm okay with certain parts of the ending. They just didn't do nearly enough to explain how they got to the ending. I can see Jamie and Cersei dying together, in fact, I enjoyed seeing Cersei cry like a little hoe realizing she fukked up. But Jamie's decision to go back felt rushed. I can see Tyrion becoming Hand. I can see Bronn becoming a small lord. Not a Master of Coin though :childplease: I can see Sam becoming the Grand Maester. I can see Sansa becoming Lady of Winterfell. Not Queen though. FOH, you staying in the 7 Kingdoms :camby: And I can see Dany going crazy and wrecking sh*t. But they needed alot more time to get there and if they went this route, Jon should have became King.

What Im not cool with at all is Arya killing The Night King. It was wack. I'm not cool with Jon being sent Beyond the Wall. I get that he felt free out there with the Wildings but, he spent years wishing he could go back to his family and to Winterfell and now, he's banished forever from both. Makes no sense. His heritage and big reveal? All for nothing. If Jon wasn't going to become King, then I would have preferred Jon got Winterfell at least and Sansa finding something else to do. Which brings up my last point.....Bran becoming King :childplease: :childplease: :childplease: If anything, HE should have been the one to go with the Wildlings to take Bloodraven's place in the tree or to explore the Lands of Always Winter or whatever. It makes more sense for him to be Beyond the Wall and learning more about the Old Gods. Just like it made more sense for Jon to either become King (and for Sansa to get WF) or for Jon to get Winterfell and Sansa to just say in the North doing something else. Nearly half of the Small Council was connected to Jon in some way yet, he's not there :childplease:

they prolly tryna drive interest to the Targ show by setting this up afterwards, to make people care about the IP/brand again

never seen a network basically admit they fukked up in the worst way
i still dont get what kind of contract those 2 idiots had....i mean, GOT was huge, i dont think any show will ever be this huge.
Why would HBO give up on that? the show still had 2 -3 more seasons easy. Why they didnt just get someone else to replace thse 2?
Now they have to take chances with sequels prequels spinoffs...:snoop:

D&D were coming off winning countless emmys and were being sought after by everyone from Apple, to Netflix, to Amazon, to Disney after creating the biggest show in the world. HBO also was known and had built their reputation on being a creator-driven network. Replacing/firing the showrunners of the most award winningest pop culture tv show of the 21st century would have sabotaged the reputation of the network. And the talent (The Emilia Clarkes and Peter Dinkklages) probably would have called bullshyt and protested HBO interfering with the creative process to print more money.

No one would have the hindsight of how shytty season 8 turned out to be if HBO would have fired the showrunners after Battle of the b*stards/The Winds of Winter aired (which is around the time they first came out and said they wanted to end the show around 70 episodes), and there would have been huge protests/backlash against HBO.

It's really easy to forget just how praised D&D were at the time they said they wanted to wrap the show up despite HBO and GRRM wanting more.

Thrones was at it's peak when it was a political drama with the army of the dead as a backdrop.. I don't think the showrunners ever knew how to handle the fantastical elements of the show. A show centered on Snow and his wildling community doesn't seem like it can recreate that magic. HBO rarely produces subpar content but there's not a lot for them to work with here.

I don't give af. House of Dragons might be cool because it's a whole different period and set of characters. I had enough of this fool :manny:
