GOT final seasons really tanked it’s prestige factor.
It’s hard to remember the red wedding was the best thing on television, ever. Basically seasons 1-4 were en fuego at a level never before seen. And then THUD.
I would watch flounder fucking over the last two seasons of GoT. So slight edge to Deadwood.
Seasons five and six were just ok. Some people raved about the battle of the bastards. I thought it was really shitty and a sign of the rushed, out of the blue conflict resolutions that were to come. Actually, on that note, the earlier one where Stannis rides in to defeat the wildlings at the wall was similar. How did his army, which was so impotent against Ramsey Bolton, so casually sweep through the wildlings which were tens of thousands strong and on their home turf?

Fuck that show. I want to retract my vote.
When Stannis met the Wildlings, he caught them by surprise and had the full power of his army and the sell swords he purchased with the loans from Bravos.
By the time he made it to Winterfell (in the show) his army was an under supplied rabble facing an enemy that was ready and waiting for them.
This doesn’t even address the relative favor/power of the red god at those 2 points in the story.
Deadwood surging. GOT would have had my vote throughout this entire tourney has the last two seasons never happended. The first four seasons were the best television I have ever watched in any genre.

I did not see this coming.
