Disagree. Season 7 was walking dead tier terrible



7 is the second worst, but save for Hardhome and Cersei's story, Season 5 is garbage.

Beyond the Wall alone make season 7 great.


Beyond the Wall is the dumbest episode of Game of Thrones bar none. Anyone that has read the books was pulling their hair out watching it.

6th
wtf. Outside of the last 2 episodes season 6 was pretty mediocre too.

1,2,3 are elite
4 is really good
5 and 6 have maybe a combined 3 great episodes, everything else was mediocre
7 is just complete fan-fiction level dogshit

6 is clearly superior to 5 in every single way. I can't think of anything on the top of my head that made me cringe during Season 6. Season 5 was that non-fricking stop. And I liked all the build-up of Season 6 and the pay-off at the end.

Season 6 is exceptional television. It’s hard for me to take people who say it’s bad seriously.

Honestly, the books go off a cliff after book 3. Biggest reason for the decline in season 5. It could come back around if GRRM ever finishes them.

I don’t want to spoil anything for the OP, but think Arya/Waif.

No I wasn't.

I'm not surprised that a lot of you zipheads zero in on the battle episodes of every season, but I'd have thought cool stuff like Arya's journey, Tyrion as Hand and Joffrey blooming into the most evil character on the show would keep you going.

This is the greatest show in history. All of this is just you people bitching like a bitch because you're bitches.

I agree, but it has to close strong.

No story (in any medium) has captivated me like this show has. Honestly, it’s not even close.

Probably my second favorite season behind season one. Probably bc its the closest to the books outside of season one.

Season one is the single greatest season in TV history.

S1 really is amazing. Not a single wasted moment - everything was great.

Along with some parts of S6 there are a lot of Inconsistent writings.

S6E4, Sansa: “we must get Rickon back”
S6E9, Sanda: “Ramsay is crazy, Rickon is a goner”

What has happened between Ep4 and Ep 9 to make her have a change of heart?

S7, the Arya and sansa “tension” aka diversion was ridiculous. Done for cheap shock value.

S5, hardline was awesome episode.

S1-S4, I have watched it at least 5x times. Great seasons.

i know im beating a dead horse here, but my god they ruined Littlefinger, who is easily the best character in the books. completely botched his character.

I never liked his character in the books as much as you and Landshark, but I still can’t get over the change in voice.

I haven't really thought about what my least favorite episode was. Gregor throwing the rock was pretty stupid and Jon not getting on Drogon and making some useless stand that basically got coldhands killed was super dumb, but the Usain bolt gendry and the rocket bird didnt reall bother me.

I'm a book reader, why would they episode make book readers in particular hate it?
