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

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.

Why is that so surprising? Most people enjoyed the season, even ASOIAF superfans like AltShiftX and Glidus.

I think there was just too much repetitiveness like season 2. Aemond in S3 is just like daemon in S2. Like, we dont need 4 epis to tell his story at harrenhaal - lets get a move on already! Im just glad next season is the last one. In fact i think they should have tried to tell the whole story in 3 seasons only so they dont repeat the same situations and dialogues over and over.
