The whole Tommen-High Sparrow arc was dumb and both characters performance was not good.

By the end most characters were bad. Jamie going back to Cersei. Cersei just drinking wine and brooding. Dany and Jon’s relationship was rushed and unbelievable. Tyrion, Littlefinger, and Varys all suddenly being stupid. Arya becoming a ninja that can fool the big bad and beat Brienne in hand to hand combat. I guess we were kind of supposed to forget.


Nailed it. The anger I have from this atrocity has stopped me from watching this show annually. I've tried re-watches, but I never make it all the way through. Nearly every character jumped the shark.

I can't believe no one has mentioned Bran yet. His story was boring af and no one deserved the iron throne less.

Especially the build I thought it had with the possibility of becoming the 3 eyed raven. I expected more from it and staying out of the 7 kingdoms in the end.

And agreed should not have been on the Iron Throne

They had no clue what to do with the blood raven story. Even Max Von Sydow couldn’t salvage their shite.

Sansa by far for me. It got to the point when she was married to Ramsey I felt she deserved what happened to her. She basically created every bad situation she was in because her all about me mentality. And what right does she deserve to tell the kingdom the north is its own kingdom now. What a joke.

Arya I agree the final battle scenes were a joke. I was hoping she would have returned at some moment when someone was in need with her wolf and its pack. But being basically an unstoppable killing machine was a little much.

Jon for all he did and sacrificed basically told to piss off. The whole story was over who the crown belonged to, and it was him. I have no issue with him going to the north, but it should have been his choice and his choice to turn the throne down.

Jamie was having a great redemption arc but that was ruined in the end.

Cersi not the way I wanted her to die. I was hoping once the army entered the city she would have unleased the wildfire and took everyone with her.

The Greyjoys were a waste of space in the shows for the most part. So were the people from Dorne.

So what action of hers led to her being tortured by Ramsey?

I just did a full rewatch this Summer

Viserys Targaryen - insufferable every scene he's in
Joffrey - stupid cvnt and not scary at all, just laughable
Catelyn Stark - cold bitch who made bad decision after bad decision
Sansa Stark, seasons 1-4 - typical doe-eyed imbecile princess stereotype
Cersei - tbh her schtick gets old after 2 seasons, she's a vengeful bitch

The High Sparrow was pretty damn annoying. I like Jonathan Pryce too, but that role was just terrible.

May not be popular opinion, but I hated Samwell Tarly also

Yeh. They butchered that character. In the books, he made Ramsay look like a puppy dog.

What specifically? I thought he was a good character that showed what being soft in that time period looked like.

Her beating Brienne with her dumbass “needle” was fricking STUPID. And I didn’t care much for Brienne either.

I think that's the point of him, He's an entitled prick that thinks himself a King despite having no power.

I also think this is an exaggerated version of a spoiled rich kid that gets whatever he wants. He is supposed to be a petulant child.

All these characters do suck. I'd say Cersei is more necessary than the others. She went through a lot that turned her the way she is. Just a shitty person through and through.

Sansa by far, mainly because Sophie Turner is super annoying on her own
Not saying Sand snakes isn't fair, that whole dorne storyline is so bad.
Arya after she became Super Arya


Honorable mention for Ed Sheeran cameo.

Get a kick out of this video that shows all the contradictory writing and lack of logic

Samwell Tarly ended up being one of my favorite characters. He had some good comedic scenes like when Bran told him he was the three eyed raven and Sam's just like "Oh! Ok....Idk what that means."

That insufferable cocklesss shithead Grey Worm. They wanted us to hate him in the end, right? From the start I hated his dumbass scenes and that stupid pole he used as a weapon
