    The new got is way better than the old got. It gets to the point quicker rather than taking 4 episodes to do so. Plus dragons already.

      Editing … Too bad that it didn’t improve sooner because I am really not interested anymore. All my caring went out the window with the last 2 seasons. Got is dead to me. dragons at the start is a massive improvement though I have to admit.

    Do you think Game of Thrones' legacy will ever be repaired? Will fans ever remember it for the good times again, and not the final seasons?
    If I ever rewatch the series all the way through, it'll probably be with a fanedited cut of the final three seasons. Maybe just skip season six entirely.

    Maybe Zack Snyder will release his intended Game of Thrones cut :)
    Maybe one of the spinoffs will actually surpass the original series.

      Editing … In all seriousness, I feel a lot of us let the flaws throughout the series slide because we thought "Oooh don't worry! This is going somewhere super cool!" Bran's story is probably the best example. After the second season it consistently dragged, and what did it bring to the table in the end? Some lame backstory no one asked for involving time travel and a minor character, and some magic powers that get used for.... a moderately cool shot of some birds? I imagine it would be painful to sit through those scenes again, and all the other miserable payoffs to plot points like "the Blackfish escaped!" would just be one twist of the knife after another.

    SpoilerSo we've finally had Gendry's grand return. Who does that leave in terms of characters long overdue to pop up again? Syrio Forel, hopefully Ilyn Payne and.... anyone else?

    Oh, I never mentioned here how much I liked the last episode. Best Game of Thrones content since 2015. Emilia Clarke also learned how to act.
    The witty dialogue made a return, which was fantastic.

      Editing … I thought there were some great scenes (especially the cold opening and the ending) and then the rest was okay, but dragged a bit. In between season 5 and season 6 quality for me (and I loved season 6,) but I have hopes that the season will pick up as it goes along.

    speaking of 10/10 shows, any chance today's season premier will promise something better than the shitfest that was season 6?

    Game of Thrones is about character action, and telling a story without relying on formulas and cliches. Season 6 was the exact opposite of that--it used cliches in abundance, and was predictable as hell as it followed the "faux-GoT formula" adopted by other shows and movies hoping to ride GoT's coattails--false unpredictability. That is, the twisting of cliches found in other media, in the hopes of shocking or surprising, not in the hopes of telling a fantastic story. For example, the rule of 3 could be turned into the rule of 4, with dramatic music on the third action in order to communicate "you expected the rule of 3, eh? Nope! Dramatic music meant nothing, but to call attention to just how unpredictable we are! Look, here's a fourth action with no fanfare, and it hits the mark! Wowie!" That actually happened in the first season of faux GoT, in the worst episode in series history: The Battle of the Bastards.
    But few seem to care that Game of Thrones has abandoned smart writing and character action, instead rejoicing the Social Media Moments™, not written for the story, but for the fans to talk about on Twitter every Sunday.
    ... and like, why does a premium network series have filler content now?
    Game of Thrones seasons 1-5 were 10/10. Season 6 was 3/10 at best. It wasn't just bad for GoT, it was horrible television. Is the Game of Thrones team really this incompetent without the involvement of George R.R. Martin? I'm not sure I can get myself hopeful for season 7. Maybe if Martin returns, we'll be guaranteed 10/10 story again.
