Back when it first aired it was amazing, people went wild for it, and with reason: it’s really that good. For the first 5 seasons. Season 6&7 become mixed bags because the writers tan out of original source materials and they sucked at writing themselves, and at season 8 theyr recieved a mouthwatering contract for star wars and just wanted to get rid of GoT, even though HBO wanted multiple seasons more.
So, they just write and produces a 6 episode piece of shit that was scandalously bad. Production was bad, writing was just amazingly bad.
Watch the first seven seasons, they’re worth it!

You could watch it if you stop before the end, maybe through season 6, definitely before 8.
I still recommend the books though, which are still good despite the fact that we will never see the end written by the original author.

The last book was pretty bad, didn’t include any of the main characters. Such a shame, it started so well.

So you mean A Dance With Dragons? I’d recommend doing the last two books mixed together so you get A Feast For Crows at the same time. Here is a link to one reading order by chapter: …tumblr.com/…/a-new-readerfriendly-combined-readi…

That’s interesting .
I had heard that it was twice as long, then they discovered some paradox or plot hole, so he yanked out half the book for re-writes, and published the rest. Still waiting on those re-writes.

Isn’t that a truer reflection of a true to life story? There are no “endings”, life goes on

Well, in that case, if “life goes on”, then new books should keep coming and coming…
