That would be a great episode 8 out of a 10 episode season. **** them for that. It feels like when Yellow stone only dropped a half season. Pretty pissed with it really. Hard to trust them to deliver again after this turd and the end of GOT. Usually season 1 is a build up laying the foundation. They did that. Kind of sucked because we finally got some action and it was over. Season 2 you get a dragon battle in what episode 5? Then just kind of a dick tease 3 episdode season 3 trailer.

There was supposed to be a battle at the end of this season that was left out because they want to extend this to 4 seasons. George was the one pushing for 4, so I guess I don't really have a problem with it
I guess it's easier not to be annoyed with the prick teasing when you know what's coming eventually. |

I signed in expecting to talk about the amazing acting being dropped left and right in last night's episode. Just masterful performance after masterful performance...
This... was not what I expected, to say the least. I'll say this before getting into spoiler-y stuff: We can't, on one hand, universally revile and complain about the lack of characterization and "showing" in the latter seasons of Game of Thrones that led to people literally being shocked that Daenerys went bad (because the setup was light and only slightly hinted at) - not to mention all the people that foolishly gave their kids that Tragedeigh of a name only to discover she was a baddie - and then complain when that mistake is corrected in House of the Dragon. And now into spoiler-y stuff.
Spoiler!
Come at me if you want. I know I come at watching shows and movies with a writer's heart and mindset and sensibilities, so I'm more forgiving of time on exposition and storytelling than a lot of folks. For me, at least, that was a home-run ending to this season, because the next two are gonna be just nuts... almost to the point of rushing with the amount of major events occurring, but they've all been set up and put in place by this one... |

Probably one of the most uneventful season endings in the GOT universe ever, but that's ok. Still a high quality show.
It was like, "Hey, you know that war we were building up to at the start of the season? Well, we're going to leave you on a cliffhanger that's STILL building up to that war". Lol...ok, thanks guys.... Anyway...the Daemon character turn was nice. I did enjoy that. |
