Main Title (uncredited) Written and performed by Ramin Djawadi. As we prepare for House of the Dragon, we look back on the glory that was Game of Thrones.
A rushed, broken, lazy ending, and a slap in the face to fans new and old alike
Seasons 1-6 are truly exceptional television, with The Sopranos, Breaking Bad, Mad Men, The Wire, the best of the best. Season 7 was of lower quality but still somewhat enjoyable, and then came season 8, which was a blunder of epic proportions.
It defined a decade and changed pop culture forever
That being said, nothing can take away from the wild, wonderful, emotional ride that Game of Thrones seasons 1-6 of TV was. I like to believe it was canceled after season 6 and we’ll never see the true ending 😉
