Responses to Game of Thrones

May 23, 2019 – Previous seasons of Game of Thrones were generally lauded by critics and fans alike, even if season 7 was considered weaker by some. With season 8, however, the high opinions started to plummet. By season 8’s final episodes, there was a public outcry. Below are some of the skewerings of the show, as well as alternative endings and storylines created by fans.


Humorous skewering:

John Hughes-style ending (classic):


Say what you will about the #GameOfThronesFinale, the John Hughes homage was a bold choice to end on. pic.twitter.com/kKJrJyV9d7

Afterall, Jon is a Targaryen ending:


My #GameofThrones ending would be Jon holding dead Daenerys down the stairs in front of all armies. Drogon breathing fire on Jon only for Jon to come out unscathed, revealing that he is the true heir to the throne. All bow down to the new King. The End!

Alternate ending to Game of Thrones:

Everyone dies. A lone direwolf sits on the iron throne. Cersei, now a white walker, continues to haunt the castle, wandering the halls, plotting against the wolf.
