Not a great ending, but having read some 'experts' on here and in the wider fan base, some of the fan theories and fan opinions on what the ending should have been are equally shit if not incredibly worse.
I read one this morning utterly slating Benioff and Weiss, and then saying Greyworm should've been king. I mean, wtf.
It's all a matter of opinion and whilst people can slate the writers, their own opinions are often utter shite too.
The way they wrote season 8, the ending was probably the only way they could've ended it. Backed themselves into a bit of a corner.
That said. The Long Night was fucking brilliant and the Night King scene was an absolute triumph. It peaked there and could never recover.
Of course, my opinion on that could be shite too!
Agree with a lot of that - it did peak and the final episode was really 2 scenes, the end for Daenerys and the new king. After that it was guff. Especially Aria going off on a boat - no need for that.
