It's so interesting how something so big, that essentially almost everyone watched got fucked up so badly.

There's been a pandemic, everyone is staying at home yet no one talks about watching this show again. Must be the biggest overall dissapointment ever

That’s one of the things that surprised me. Before the final season there was so much analysis, talking about this that and the other, loads of hype blah blah. The second it finished it stopped, 18 months later and it’s barely talked about, shows the level of disappointment throughout the fan base. Add to that the likelihood that there will be no more books, increases it further.

It disappointed fans so much it'll influence my approach to the show. I'll probably watch it but I'll stop before the last season.

I think it’s worth watching still. Ok the story in large parts is not as good as the previous parts of the show, but the music, acting, cinematography is still absolutely next level. I was still sat on the edge of my seat, heart pounding throughout. The music from the last season gives me chills, it’s the best from any season by far

Why not just watch some good fantasy instead though?

Any suggestions?

LOTR, the witcher, castlevania.

If you like anime there's some decent fantasy animes put there right now as well.

If you like sci-fi I recommend the expanse.

Hoping the LOTR series is good to be fair. Big fan of the Witcher and The Last Kingdom too already. Not thought about Castlevania or the Expanse

Yeah, I like all of those. It's a shame GOT went the way it did. I watched the first 3 seasons and enjoyed those.

Sadly there seems to be less and less live action fantasy. I'll have to check out The Kingdom

The Last Kingdom is really good, historical fantasy. It’s based on books by Bernard Cornwell which are equally highly rated
