Alicent’s 11th hour appeal seemed forced & pointless. For all the stealth and planning that went into their first meeting, this one undercut all the precautions & risk. She just bounces over to Dragon Stone, no disguise, no cover save for the dark of night…
Not the best finale
She literally doesnt have anything left in the books. It's kinda the only way to include her.

This would've been a great penultimate episode , but for a finale.... worthless

I mean, I get some of the pacing issues because of trying to figure out what to do with Daemon at Harrenhal. But they could’ve condensed that down and still gotten the message across (Daemon losing his shite).
But it was criminal we didn’t even get the Battle of the Gullet. That’s just ridiculous to not even get there.
I don’t see anyway they carry 3-5 battles in Season 3 financially.

Right.. the preview for next week the “explosive season finale!!” Could’ve been awesome.. and instead.. no payoff at all.

Well, there you have it. Either next season will be a constant orgasm of battles and major deaths, or we're getting 8 seasons.
They continue to make Rhaenyra more sympathetic, the men all seem to be neurotic shits and the women are somewhat reasonable. It's not ruining it for me, but the signs of a possible slide to full-retard are there.
frickin' lesbian bait and switch with Tyland. I thought he was going to get some barbarian pirate pussy

They are going to blow this one just like the original series. What a waste

Also, why can’t they go back to doing a year between seasons? Rings of Power and Wheel of Time are doing it.
What’s this?

For season 1 to be so good... season 2 was horrific

What in the actual frick was that cock tease of a finale?! There was 15 fricking minutes left on the episode and they leave us with that cliffhanger? Now, what? 2 years of laying in wait? frick these count writers.

Worst season finale of all time?
Jesus that was bad.

Na, they won’t. HOTD overall has been very good. I see them wrapping it up in four

What a waste of a season, only episode worth a frick was Rooks Rest. 4 freaking episodes ago.
Show was a slog this season, what a letdown

frick! I missed the dunk and egg teaser! Can’t fricking wait, those books are awesome

A season long buildup… to give us a cliffhanger that we won’t see for 2 years

The first season was good this one was not. It was a utter slog to get through
Posted on 8/4/24 at 9:56 pm to VermilionTiger
Yeah the pacing was not good at all this season. I think the show runners will have to do something about that

The pre-season announcement that season 2 would feature eight episodes rather than the traditional 10 didn’t seem highly significant at the time. But now it feels as though the writers received the altered episode order 55 pages into penning this installment.
That’s a great point. It definitely seems like they must have had their budget slashed when they were past the point of no return or something. There has to be some explanation for why they wouldn’t conclude any of the ongoing plot threads. It’s just hard for me to believe that this was the showrunners’ plan all along.

They sped through the first season to get to the big battles and then hit the freaking air brakes in season two. Baffling decision.

Twitter is on fire with memes all shitting on the finale
If you have it, fire it up and laugh.
