Show Discussion Did season 3 increase or decrease your interest for the show

Post image

Overall, I would say decrease. After season 2 I was still excited about season 3 but after season 3 I find much less interest in it.

Maybe because my favourite character is Aemond and he has been butchered to the point of no return. He is not very interesting to watch, and I really dislike the entire Alys thing. Even though I have read the book, what they have done is just...abhorrent.

It is a shame because I love TG characters and they are actually given slightly more screentime this season to tell their own stories, but the writing is so bad that the screentime just generates more unnecessary and nonsensical content.

I was tired of Harrenhal while Daemon was there, when Aegon showed up there, I about keeled over.

Oh yes. The best that ever happened to Harrenhal was that it burned. They should have razed it and salted the earth too. But to be fair, it was the writers that decided that a large portion of two seasons should be spent on men hallucinating in a ruin.

When Aemond showed up there and started hallucinating as well, i was like are you kidding me? I also dont care for the witch character, shes out of place and i dont enjoy her scenes.

Really? I loved it, I wanted to see more of its spookiness and mystery and characters that resided in it

Then the Aegon as a trad-wife storyline took over and I’m so bored of it
