I feel like season 8 started off ok and then at some point it seems like they just wanted to be done and rushed everything. If we had gotten what we were promised, which was an entire season where every episode is movie length, then it probably would have been better because they would have had time to develop all the ideas going on instead of just vomiting it all out as quickly as possible. It felt like they never finished any thought all the way to the end then just gave up entirely by the last episode and shit out a confusing and disappointing ending to tie up the loose ends in the most half assed way possible. They really should have used their whole asses

I used to feel like only 8 was bad but while attempting rewatches I've come to see 7 as pretty weak. At the time i thought "It feels like this because they are building to something worthwhile. " but without the payoff of a good final season the penultimate season suffers in tandem.

Honestly, that's all seasons from 5 for me. 1-4 were (and are) genuinely great, because you're not waiting for the awesome thing they are building towards, you're in the awesome thing. From 5 on more and more problems crop up (probably best exemplified by "bad poosay"), and with the knowledge of how things end there is little to enjoy there.

That makes sense, as season 5 was where they started straying away from the novels and just making shit up as they went along lol

I stopped watching in the middle of season 5. I got annoyed and bored with all the plot holes and story lines to nothing.

With how it turned out, can't say I regret stopping.

Speaking of bad poosay,I like how Dorne just kind of ceased to exist at a certain point

While the showrunners kind of forgot about Dorne...
