Fun political based article that Dany was right.

Oh, and on an unrelated note... that Westworld teaser before the finale was brilliant. Half way through, I'm thinking, "I would totally watch this new Aaron Paul sci-fi show"... and then that ending hits and I realize, "oh, I already am watching this show!" It was like a magic trick. Westworld overall has been kind of hit or miss for me, but that teaser totally did its job and got me excited again for the new season.

I had exactly the same reaction, lol...

SPOILERS... sorta... can an ad be a spoiler? Not sure... but just to be safe... let's say SPOILERS...

I think I still need some time to process my thoughts, but... I liked it. I thought the ending was earned and paid off most of its many storylines. I feel like the parts that didn't fully land are more of a function of the compressed seasons 7 & 8 (and possibly D&D's inability to sustain the slow burn without Martin's books to serve as a blueprint). While I have my quibbles, it doesn't make me regret that I spent over a decade obsessing over the books and the show.

The best part of the finale is that it set up what should be the next show.. a small council sitcom!

I would watch that show. Sounds great!

It was decent, hit all the right beats, but it left me kind of unmoved. I thought i would feel something watching it, but didn’t.

I thought the finale was the best episode all season. It did a good job of wrapping things up without becoming a checklist. While this wasn't my favorite season, and I think it could have greatly benefited from at least one more episode dealing with the white walkers, I think it was far better than many seem to feel.

I'll miss the show, and look forward to the prequel/sequels that HBO produces down the road.

Impressive finale overall. Some of it played out as I expected it would, other parts... not so much.

The North remembers.

Best part?

Jon finally petting Ghost...

[Nostalgiabuff]

i was rather disappointed in that. some good moments yes, but overall a disapointment

[drquest]

Well some of it I did expect but I think I still was looking for more closure than was presented.

Not what I was expecting but I enjoyed it.
