Game of Thrones Season 8 Backlash: Kit Harington Talks About Those Mistakes
Everyone who watched "Game Of Thrones" remembers that Season 8 was controversial! There was tons of criticism. Now, five years later, Kit Harington, the awesome guy who plays Jon Snow, has spoken up about it all!
What Did Kit Harington Say About "Game of Thrones"?
In a big interview with GQ, Harington admits they made some mistakes with the ending. And it's kinda true; the story didn't flow smoothly! It really seemed rushed! The actors, like Harington, were super-tired because they had been making the show for so long - and it all culminated in a whirlwind finish.
How Did The "Game of Thrones" Finale Go Down?
- They said they were tired. The whole Game of Thrones team couldn't have kept going, especially those who had been involved from the start. It made it difficult to maintain a consistent and satisfying story - you can’t rush those epic plot twists! It really affected the "Game of Thrones" ending. People weren’t happy about how they handled Daenerys Targaryen, it really bothered them! There wasn’t really a ton of time to wrap things up neatly. The ending felt unfulfilling!
- You're not alone if you feel this way - a lot of people have felt it! They said "Game of Thrones" was a massive, groundbreaking TV series. It attracted so many viewers and there was so much buzz around it, the show really captured a big global audience! And they were pretty bummed when things wrapped up so suddenly - especially the way "Game of Thrones" had been setting the stage with so many storylines over all those seasons!
So Did It Really Ruin The Show?
- Even though the last Game of Thrones season, Season 8, had that rushed ending, Harington still believes it doesn't take away from all the greatness that was Game of Thrones! And to be honest, the ending doesn’t completely wreck all those seasons that made this series a classic! There is no way "Game of Thrones" would have ended differently, with the amazing popularity of "House of the Dragon"!
It's all part of the amazing legacy of this tv series - It was inspired by George R.R. Martin’s awesome "A Song of Ice of Fire" books. "Game of Thrones" was a groundbreaking series that brought those dark fantasy stories about power struggles - on the Iron Throne, that we loved from the books - to the big screen, which got fans all over the world obsessed! It’s one of those TV series that totally changed the game and won tons of Primetime Emmy Awards! That big fan base made this show the one we couldn’t stop talking about, which just shows its cultural impact!
It might be time to give "Game of Thrones" another go if you never have - even if those who have seen the series aren't so keen about how they decided to wrap it up!
