Game of Thrones – Finale

Today was the last ever Game of Thrones – I watched it this morning as I normally do at 6.15am and it was okay. It wasn’t particularly emotional or poignant, it was just…okay.

It’s a huge shame that a massive great story-telling machine has been wrapped up so quickly and the overall feeling is that this has been rushed. I think the show-runners and maybe the actors had had enough and wanted to move onto other projects, this has been running for about 9 years after all!

I think there will be other offerings but they won’t have the same impact and I suspect will feel forced and will slowly die off, but it’s been great fun and I’ve enjoyed it so much. But like all good things, it has to have an ending and this was it. If ever they wanted to do follow-ups then it would be possible because so many of the main characters actually survived, but I don’t think that will happen.

Anyway, that’s all done and dusted and it’s time for me to get into something else now with my time…
