Interesting how D&D learned GRRM’s endgame after S3’s production and before the fourth.

I'm one of those who liked the previous episode. At least for the most part. But this? This is the worst episode of Game of Thrones I've seen. Terrible writing throughout.
Definitely it has to be this. D&D are just trying to fool us.

Usually I'm a GoT apologist and I didn't hate the last episode, but fuck this was so bizarre I'm sitting here motionless lmao
Some really bizarre melodramatic writing in this episode.
There's enough drama for this to last at least another couple of seasons, and everyone probably should've known that. I think I guess this show never really stood the chance to being wrapped up very tightly - obviously the show can't go on forever and I'm not speaking from the angle of wanting MORE as a fan, it's just that there is still so much it might be near impossible to give this a satisfying end that would feel earned. Hopefully I'm super wrong and it's just how I feel atm.
It is funny to me the first two eps had much better writing and were not written by D & D. This ep has even more issues than I initially thought upon reflection. Too bad they have the last two eps as well.

I hope Euron
Funny to me is that episode 2 was written so amazing, that I thought this season could be phenomenal. Well...
So
Even in my workplace, literally every one of my coworkers who watches the show wants something entirely different. The show has become big enough now that it's going to be representative of the diversity of audience. By diversity, I specifically mean the diversity of opinion and expectation. Some people want fire & blood, some people want happily ever after.
No matter how well-written the last 2 eps are, people are going to shit on it.
In spite of my own protestations, the show is naturally divisive, so I don't know how we can collectively agree on what "successfully" means.
