    Anyone else feel like this was a setup for another season? Not that they are going to make it but,

    Drogon goes east, the other red woman in meereen brings Danny back...

    None of the rest of it felt like an ending to me either.

    Oh well.

    Dat was some bullshit. Seven Kingdoms of fighters aren't going to live under a dude who has never fought.

    As finales go, it was a'ight. Nothing special.

    The least they could have done was a quickie between Sansa and Tyrion.

    It's set up for spin offs, if not a sequel, for sure.

    The throne was melted so Vegas didn't have to pay off bets

    it was a cheap knock off made in China...plastic swords and Drogon was just proving it wasn't Valerian steel. It was a metaphor for the entire fucking 8 years.

    Cool scene but ridiculous to think a dragon could put two and two together and realize the throne killed her and not Jon.

    Slept on it and I'm still kinda vexed. Absolutely nothing makes sense. Jon is forced to reform the Nights Watch, which is entirely unnecessary now, to avoid war with the Unsullied, who've been mostly wiped out and leave anyway, because the wars must end for some particular reason, even though he can be absolved of his crimes by one of two monarchs, both of whom are his siblings. How does this never come up during the writing process or the table reads?

    Yeap, hopefully the books get released and there's some solace in that. I can only imagine how the cast must feel after putting in over a decade of their lives only to have the writers phone in the ending.

    I'm not about to pity them but it's pretty obvious lots of the cast had real love for the series and the fans. Regardless of the money, to have something you put that much of your life into turn into a pile of steaming shit in a short period of time when it could have been one of the best television series ever produced has got to feel pretty hollow.

    Nah....they're all gonna end up like Robb Stark leaping into some other series and boning relatively hot middle aged actresses like Keeley Hawes...

    There's no more Night's Watch, but the Unsullied don't know that

    It's just a means for Bran to put his cousin where Jon has always wanted to be anyway, in a bromance with Tormund

    I'm still about 90 percent sure Jon is supposed to kill Dany before the white walkers win then his sword bursts into flame and he beats them.

    Dany frees 8,000 fully trained Unsullied and another 2,000 still in training. 10,000 Unsullied. Don’t know the count on Dothraki but going to guess 2,000.

    We see with our eyes that the entire Dothraki Horde was wiped out in the Battle of Winterfell.

    We see Grey Worm sacrifice his Unsullied in the Battle of Winterfell by using them to protect the retreat.

    We get told after the Battle of Winterfell that half the forces survived and can sail to Dragonstone. Lazy writing but ok.

    The fleet is destroyed for a 3rd time by Euron (the other two being when Yara is taken and when Casterly Rock is sacrificed). This means the rest of the Unsullied and Dothraki should be lost at that point.

    40 wash up on shore and are with Dany outside the gates of King’s Landing when Missandei is beheaded.

    Clearly during the battle of King’s Landing a few hundred of each have magically resurrected but really Drogon is doing the damage. Lazy writing but ok.

    Dany wins the battle and addresses her few surviving but ever loyal troops:

    Not only does Greyworm have the fast travel passive skill but he also learned the teleport perk.

    He also lets his hostage free himself and choose the new king

    The last episode was the worst tv ive ever seen
