A lot of people were complaining before. But more people watch the show now. So more people to complain.

Speaking just for myself I think the reasons are several. This season was worse than any previous. As long as the show isn't finished there's hope that it will improve and a great ending could've made up for the poor prior seasons. But no, in the end it left much unexplained. It Deus ex machina'd itself to a lightning fast conclusion and an unsatisfying one whilst destroying character arcs Willy nilly along the way. So as an analogy it's like seasons 5-7 were having bad sex. Even bad sex can be a little bit good. And before season 8 there's still a chance a great ending makes up for prior poor performance. But in the end it was just rushed, ended abruptly and without any satisfaction whatsoever. And it can never be redeemed. I'm personally shocked anyone at all defends this show now.

Here's the thing. There's tons of things they could've done differently to make the show better with only slightly more time or effort. The fact that they didn't is part of the reason fans are so pissed off. The writing was lazy, sloppy and rushed. It's shameful. It's painful. It's unforgivable in my opinion. Fans care more about their show than they did.

HBO offered more episodes and budget. D&D turned them down. The sloppy rushed season is all on them.

Nope. The unsullied that cannot be defeated because when 1 dies 2 more appear somehow.

Because they would've had to fight the respawning capable unsullied army.

Exactly, they did not want to telegraph it so that they could get the most "shock" value. Even if in the end it appears to make no sense.

Personally what matters to me is the story. The writing. The characters. If the story doesn't make sense and it's filled with plot holes and lazy writing, unearned moments and characters assassinated or acting out of character...it's a 1 for me. I don't care how pretty it is. This show is a dumpster fire. And a lot of the hate is because it was once so good but now... It's like a parody of it's former self.

Currently 111 rating it at 1/10 Speaks much to the current state of the show.

Back to the Night's watch with him. Lol He can help rebuild the wall

The list of embarrassing failures since she arrived in Westeros, even if Tyrion was responsible for a few, clearly indicate she's too stupid to be an effective ruler. Without dragon she's nothing. Next candidate up please. Oh heck, let's just keep Cersei. Is she really all that bad?

Or high enough to fly out of of range. Or maybe use said dragons to scout? It's ridiculous. Are there any worthy candidates for the throne left? She's not one.

10/10 for visuals. - 8 for terrible writing. 2/10 And that feels generous
