Game of Thrones: The Iron Throne (2019)
Season 8, Episode 6
5/10
Not all prophesies come true.
20 May 2019
An interesting way to end one of the greatest series ever made.

Like the whole season, this episode was not free of rushed and scurried conclusions with lots of loose ends and plot holes big enough for Drogon to fall into. Still so many questions left unanswered, like where have some characters been this whole time? Or what happened to this or that? The episode had some cheesy writing, but it also had its moments, with some good throwbacks down memory lane and nods to George RR Martin.

It was not the ending most people had in mind with all the hype and subtle clues from the earlier seasons. Maybe I'll do a Bran and re-watch the past seasons to make myself feel better. But nether the less it is the end...

Long live the Game of Thrones.

Game of Thrones: The Bells (2019)
Season 8, Episode 5
6/10
A visual masterpiece with mediocre writing
13 May 2019
Was this episode visually appealing? YES. Could the script for this episode be better? YES.

If you just want action, lots of fighting and explosions then this is the episode you are going to enjoy. But if you want a logical story line without plot holes, a poor plot amour and strong character development (or endings), then no. The story line is very obviously rushed and you can tell that D&D has put little thought into writing a script that could match the levels of the earlier seasons, instead they opted for a more cinematic approach with impressive visuals.
