@@thegoldman25 It's funny how for years I could confidently say that my fav tv show ever was GOT and now it doesn't sound as great to say. I now have to say that the first half of GOT is my fav television ever and despite how it was ruined later on I still think it is.

Imo anyone who disagrees with that cannot trusted, I personally don’t like season 5 or 6 even by normal TV standards, as the majority of the season is pretty lame and I don’t think having a good half hour out of a bad 8 hours means much

How sad is it that the finale is the worst episode. The worst part is that the show is structured to heavily rely on the ending which makes the good seasons much harder to enjoy when you rewatch them

[@TheLazarusOperation]

It's the exact same as Dexter, where the first 4 seasons are some of the best ever made. The difference is that D&D didn't adapt a LOT of book stuff. The Dexter books are finished, yet seasons 6-9 are still a stain on it.

I haven't been able to rewatch GoT since Season 8 ended. I was heavily invested emotionally in the series after watching it week after week for years since the first season released. I spent countless hours theorizing online and fangirling over things with others. It genuinely felt like I was betrayed by season 8. Like all of the time I spent convincing my friends and family to watch the show and stuff was for nothing. I'll never be able to watch this show all the way through again.

I grew up with the books and was so happy when the adaptation was so good in the beginning… I can't bring myself to watch any of it again. It just reactivates the trauma. And I will never not be angry about what they did to the show and the story.

Those were still great moments. Personally I think (spoilers ig?) Stannis' arc would also fall into it, if it wouldn't have ended with the final episode and abandoned afterwards. Would've been a way more interesting approach if he won the battle of Winterfell and truly had to deal with the consequences of the decisions before

Top 7 imo (seven because it’s fitting): 1) 3x09: Red wedding. Enough said. 2) 4x09: My favorite battle from the show by far and amazing dialogues in the prelude. 3) 1x07: Not an episode I see commonly mentioned in discussions about the best ever but I think it should be in the conversation. The tension in the final confrontation in the throne room is so well crafted, it still gets me after having watched the episode over ten times already. 4) 2x09: Same reasons as 4x09. I just like Watchers on the wall a bit more than Blackwater. 5) 4x02: The big battles get all the spotlight and they were great, but dialogues are not to be underestimated. I loved everyone here (Tyrion and Joffrey; Oberyn, Ellaria and Tywin, Cersei and especially Tyrion and Shae) plus the highlight of Joffrey dying. Whats not to love? And it set up the best season of the show. 6) 1x09: Having joined the GoT party much later I knew that favorite characters are apparently always at risk, so I expected Ned to die. People who watched it in 2011 may have been more surprised but it is still a great episode of course. 7) 6x09: Tbh it may be higher than it objectively deserves, it certainly doesn’t deserve No1 on IMDB. It just felt so good after all the suffering (meant positively) GoT put us through to leave an episode with a triumphant feeling and it is certainly a spectacular episode, maybe the best looking one overall. Flop 7: 1) 8x05: Aside from the Arya-Bloodhound dynamic I hated everything. You would assume they would get a couple more interactions right just by accident but no. 2) 8x06: I can see this having last place too, since the whole dragon pit fiasco is the worst the show got but the first half I think is actually somewhat decent on its own. It only works if we pretend to like what came before but the mistakes were not made in this episode. 3) 8x04: I barely remember what happened exactly, just that it was horrible which isn’t a good sign. 4) 7x05: While I agree with the criticism of teleportation in season 7 in general, this is the only episode in which it is so bad that I cannot look past it. They just weren’t able to have the human plot and the white walkers plot coexist, so they assigned each one part of the season and this episode was the extremely rushed transition. 5) Foolish plan, shrouding darkness etc. I think, like most, that the humans should have lost the battle but even if they win it: at least have it be painful, we had just five character deaths. Episode 2 actually had a nice melancholic feel to it because you thought that all those friend groups are about to be destroyed in a disastrous battle but then almost nothing happened. 6) 7x07: Just really boring for a final episode of a season. 7) 7x06: At the first watch, the tension was there for me, so they did some things right. However the believability just isn’t there, which works in some franchises but not in the grounded GoT which was ultra realistic for 4 and mostly realistic for 6 seasons. A flop 7 works especially well because I think those are exactly the only bad episodes. So just roughly 10% of the show, the rest ranges from good to masterpiece. I personally still like GoT (rewatches only include 6 seasons of course) but it is so sad how much damage those handful of episodes caused.

[@GR-bn3xj]

Me too. The cavalry charge looked spectacular, But even as I watched it, I was wondering what in the hell they were doing. The rest of it was so bad.

[@Camishere2040]

Jon should've known to make as grand of an obstacle as he could, like multiple walls and fortifications ect. It seemed like the fortifications at hard Holm last like half an hour altogether. You'd think he'd know winterfells walls wasn't gonna work much longer than that. They also should've known the idea of a fire wall won't work as bran saw whitewalkers eventually cross that fire wall the children of the forest made north of the wall. If you were going to use a fire wall to slow them down surely it makes more practical sense to light the firewall before the battle commences rather than last minute and having to rely on melisandre? All logic seems to be out of the window towards the end of this show.

[@austn74205]

Wow, amazing amount of work to rank every episode! The one I’d nitpick a little is The Climb - Littlefinger’s “chaos is a ladder” speech wasn’t mentioned, or the death of Roz, which I really think clues the audience in to just how ruthless Littlefinger is.

[@czoborarpi]

I feared your ranking because I mostly dont agree with you and you did not disappoint. Also as I watch your video I think you like spectacle more than the story and some of your reasoning would suggest that you should demote some of the episodes.

[@Peace2humankind]

FINALLY! Finally, Blackwater gets the #1 ranking spot it deserves. I have seen many lists and Blackwater is always somewhere between 2-5. I was a week to week watcher from the very first season and when I saw Blackwater I was stunned. Everything about it was perfect. I watched every single episode thereafter, and though they came close (WOW, ROC, BOB), I never thought anything surpassed the almighty Blackwater!.....ps- The Bear and the Maiden Fair should be much high than 50.

[@dedigaither3967]

[@gamean5873]

I would definitely have some of the later seasons episodes lower on the list, I understand that they have a lot of memorable moments, but I think that the episodes should be judged as the whole package and not just the best moments, and also I can't ignore poor writing just because the other aspects are well done

[@hassanbadrek2726]

Depends if how much of these poor writing affected the episode

[@TheDutchEmpire_]

What about Tommens suicide? For me it was a very powerfull moment. It shows how the concequences of Cercei's actions lead up to her destroying what she loves most, her last living child, but you didnt even mention it. I also think it was executed perfectly. No music, just distant screams and cries, Tommen looking almost emotionless, he just puts his crown down and steps out of the window without hesitation. Gave me chills watching it.

[@pepsibente489]

Agree. That was the most special moment of that episode for me.

[@Asylum07MasterMadman]

the thing with Dany going mad is... they specifically changed moments from the books where she forgoes diplomacy for violence. when she frees the forest slave city they changed her demanding they kill everyone without a collar and instead have them kill the masters, when that moment would have really tied to everything else

There was a lot about the top 12 that I disagreed with, but having Blackwater at no 1 means all is forgiven.

Did you yell at the TV when he told Brienne he was a terrible person when he was leaving her? Jaime has ALWAYS self-deprecated himself due to low worth, which is why he adopts this aloof persona to deflect any praise coming his way, which made the fact that Tyrion saw right through it and his final confession all the more poignant. The fact people can't recognize an obvious example of talking sh*t really shows how their basic comprehension tanked in the final few episodes.

[@carastone3473]

Now that I’m reading the books (I’m halfway through ASOS), I totally understand why book readers didn’t love the show as much as I did. Had the show runners just followed the books more closely, they could’ve made the show on their own and let GRRM stay home and finish TWOW and ADOS. The show could’ve lasted YEARS longer, ended better (however GRRM actually intends), not had the massive fall from grace it took at the end…AND we’d actually HAVE the last 2 books to read!

[@SerbAtheist]

That is one hard cope, blaming the showrunners for GRRM sluggishness in finishing the series. You might want to reserve your judgment until after you finish AFFC and ADWD. Don't get me wrong, I still love the books to death and definitely intend to read whatever GRRM publishes, but the drop in quality in those last two books is evident and they were released in 2005 and 2011! The plain fact is that GRRM made several questionable choices past the third book and is now stuck with an overgrown mess featuring dozens of dangling plot-threads he doesn't know how to resolve. None of this is the showrunner's fault.

[@GuyonaCouch]

I've seen a lot of these videos and most of them point out the fake beef between Aria and Sansa as being unnecessary. But, the thing about that is they know Littlefinger is always listening so they have to always pretend to be at each others throat for the plot to work.

[@ImIndavyjoneslocker]

to be fair there are a few good moments in s5&6 that were still being adapted but for the most part the writing took a huge plummet. by the end of season 6 it’s the same terrible hollywood shlock writing as s7&8

[@GuyonaCouch]

@@ImIndavyjoneslocker to be fair, my guy. Not once did I say I enjoyed the later seasons. I despise them wholeheartedly. Everything about them.

Why?

[@nightshift8249]

A testament of the strength of the first half of the show is that engrosses you to the point where you almost forget about the disaster it’s careening towards. On rewatch, I really did not like the excessive torcher porn of the Ramsey scenes. It was such overkill, with a lot of screen time wasted on beating into our heads that the guy is evil. You can feel the writers steering into the show’s edgy reputation in an inorganic way.

Interesting up until the point where they wholly handwave Dany’s Fire and Blood persona as “minor” issues, then act wholly perplexed after dismissing the context supporting this outcome… after opening this video by claiming they are fine with resolutions as long as they are thematicallly relevant (of which this absolutely was)… but thanks for the laugh.

[@SerbAtheist]

Yeah, I love when haters pontificate how they 'have no problem with the ending only how they got there...' or how the final season 'destroyed character development', then when you look at actual complaints you see it's 90% complaining about lame-ass fan-service stuff completely contrary to the spirit of GOT not being included like Jon and the NK not having a duel or Cersei not suffering enough.
