I don't get it Cersei is on the throne after the music ends, doesn't that mean she wins?
Episode 804 might be one of the worst written episodes in TV history. GoT is dead.
GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence.

Rated today's episode D for Dogged Fans.



Thanks for the laugh, I needed that! ♥
Just a lowly standard player. May RNGesus be with you.
Telling you it's like the writers basically took a dump on their desk and that's basically season 8 it's unreal.

I'm really enjoying the last season so far, I really look forward to see how all the characters will end.
Maybe they are making the episodes intentionally underwhelming so we can get more hyped for the books which I hear will come by the end of this year(probably a lie as always but one can hope).
Episode 804 sits at a 7.1 IMDB rating right now. Doesn't sound that bad until you realize that the average is 9.5 and only fans are rating these episodes which means a 7.1 is utterly terrible. Fuck D&D tbh.

Hoping that Dany goes Full Targerian. Mad as can be and then some, murdering willy nilly and destroying stuff. Make her granda roll in delight in his grave.

After what they did to Brienne / Jaime (from sweet to godawful in thirty minutes) it's the least they could do.

Cheers.

No doubt the season is bad.

I think the Starbucks Cup is the deus ex macchiato bringing the whole edifice undone.

Stacy Jones, CEO of Hollywood Branded, a company which specilaises in product placement, told MarketWatch that HBO doesn’t accept payment for product placement in its show because customers are subscribing to an ad-free experience when signing up for the premium cable network.

She said, however, if GoT decided to include an ad for Starbucks, then placing the cup in front of Daenerys (a character on the show), would cost $250,000 in product-placement costs.

Jones said: “We’re saying this is a Super Bowl–sized television series. We’re comparing this to a ‘Transformer’ franchise, and ‘Transformer’s’ deals of this type are around $250,000 to $1 million.”

Due to the fact the cup was only on screen for a few seconds and no one was seen using it, Jones said it would be on the lower end of product placement fees.

Jones said the PR value of the slip-up is up to $1 million in word-of-mouth.

She said: “It doesn’t even matter whether the brand on that cup is Starbucks or not, because so many people think that it is, and hundreds of thousands of people are already commenting on it. I would say the value for Starbucks on this scale is well into the millions, plural, of dollars.”

According to a Twitter spokeswoman, Starbucks tweets are running at 10 times their average hourly tweets for a Monday morning (US time). She said: “There have been more than 310,000 tweets today, and I’d say on an average normal day there are usually less than 100,000 tweets.”


Uh, yeah.

I still love Arya and Sansa, and hope Tyrion wakes up in time, but yes, the timing is amusing the hell out of me goddamn you Bojack sensibilities and bad writing.

Not really, it's fun to watch for a couple more, and still has had some great moments.

But glad it's coming to an end.

I really enjoy the season 8 so far, I don't see why people keeps whinning.
But I agree with you, glad it's coming to an end. Every good story has an end. Let end this one while it's still good, And not turn into the next Walking Dead.
