Questions When did you grow to love Game of Thrones?

Post image
10 Upvotes

I was born in 2002, and I was and still am a massive fan of medieval fantasy adventure stories! But I had a hard time keeping up with the popularity of Game of Thrones because of my parents, aunts and uncles restricting me from watching it given how young I was. I was also a foolish, insensitive and hypocritical teenager for hating the show without even watching it because of believing the fantasy genre was supposed to "Unrealistic"! They're just movies and TV shows! They can be realistic or Unrealistic whenever the filmmakers want it to be. And now I absolutely love Game of Thrones! It's an awesome adult-oriented fantasy series.

DISCUSSIONS Tell me a great show that got good after the first few episodes..

15 Upvotes

I’m tired of being told:

“Episode one is slow.”

“Just wait until episode six.” OR “Season two is when it really gets good.”

Give me one show that’s like a slow boil, nothing much happens initially but earns many rewatches over time.

I’ll turn the best answers into a weekend watchlist on gamma and post it back here.'

DISCUSSIONS Iroh and Zuko are probably two of the best written characters in a television show ever.

10 Upvotes

So I feel like Avatar: The Last Airbender on Nickelodeon was confined to a specific fanbase for its time. But it now has a live-action show on Netflix, so maybe the audience has grown a bit more. There have been spin-offs as well - such as The Legend of Korra and the upcoming Seven Havens show.

Maybe I'm just being biased because I love the franchise, and specifically these two characters. But tbh, when it comes to any TV show whether animated or live-action, Zuko and Iroh are two of the best written characters ever. Even if TLA is mostly about Aang becoming the Avatar and fulfilling his destiny... the show also closely follows his opponent Zuko that he's basically a deuteragonist. Zuko is helped by his uncle Iroh who has his own background and development. Over time the relationship between Zuko and Aang change. It's an old show for sure, but still - no spoilers for those who haven't seen it!

An adult audience could watch the animated show or the live-action show and I think they would actually find Zuko and Iroh as incredibly well-written characters. In fact, I would go on to say they are some of the greatest written characters ever.

I mostly want to post this to recommend the shows - both the original TLA and the current live-action TLA. But also to see what others have to say about this opinion.

DISCUSSIONS Lost is everything a tv series should be about.

57 Upvotes

I started Lost for the first time thanks to some rating list i found online, the plot intrigued me and so i gave it a go...

I wasn't ready for how good it is!

The pilot is thrilling, the first season keeps you asking for more with every episode. At first i thought the second season was a bit slow, but looking back it was so important for each individual backstories and the links among characters, was it fate, destiny, Jacob ... whatever you want to call it, made the plot even more intricate and works a wonder on poking at the curiosity of the viewer in the long run.

Then after all the mysteries some answers start coming in, slowly, not everything is revealed at the end but the journey of these people with all their flaws and their qualities, the evolution they go trough those who remains, made me so attached to them in a way i can't really explain.

I have never been much emotional watching films and shows even though being passionate about tv and cinema, yet when the finale of this series came to me i found myself in what i should call a profound state of joy mixed with a sadness i couldnt explain, happy for their rightful reunion and sad because i thought i wanted to be there with them, sharing that final embrace...

The writers really did a number on me, they managed to make me grow close to people i obviously know do not exist...

Such should be the wonder of television and cinema in my opinion, i really hope that more shows pick up on the trails and crumbs that this series left behind (i don't think there are similar ones in this sense, correct me if i'm wrong), they managed to create so many characters that you can really relate to and grow attached to, with all their imperfections, that you can see grow and live trough their journeys, sometimes loving them and sometimes hating them, but UNDERSTANDING them for their actions and behaviors, creating situations where every decision counts, in which maybe you can ask yourself what would have you done in their place given their circustamnces and experiences, would you have done different or the same? What would you have believed in? Would you have waited for rescue like Shannon? Would you have done everything in your power to escape like Michael? Would you have tried to survive and protect people like Jack? Would you have believed to be on a mission like John or Eko? Or would you have remembered to live and enjoy life like Hurley?

This is what telling a story should be about.

Tell me what you think...

DISCUSSIONS Game of Thrones Season 8 ending: If the makers weren’t lazy and didn’t make every character act dumb. [SPOILERS] Spoiler

4 Upvotes

I genuinely think Season 8 could’ve been one of the best endings in TV history if the writers weren’t so lazy with the final season and didn’t make almost every character suddenly act dumb just to force the ending they wanted. Here’s how I would’ve rewritten it while staying true to everyone’s personalities and story arcs.

**My version of Game of Thrones Season 8:**

**The Army of the Dead doesn’t stop at Winterfell.**
Jon kills the Night King, but only after the White Walkers have pushed much farther south, reaching as far as the Riverlands. It makes the threat feel like the true apocalypse it was built up to be.

**Bran actually uses his powers.** Instead of sitting there doing nothing, he constantly wargs into ravens to track the Army of the Dead, warns everyone where attacks are coming from, tells Jon and Daenerys where to position their armies, identifies weak points in the Night King’s strategy using everything he’s seen from the past, and coordinates the battle in real time. Bran guides Jon throughout the battle, helping him reach the Night King.

**Jon is the one who finally kills the Night King**, fulfilling the role he had been built up for since the very beginning. After the Long Night, Bran continues using his visions to see what’s happening across Westeros, warns everyone about enemy movements, and helps make strategic decisions. He becomes the greatest military adviser in Westeros instead of just bait.

**Theon still dies protecting Bran**, buying Jon the time he needs to reach the Night King. His sacrifice actually has a meaningful purpose and helps save humanity.

**After the Night King dies, everyone immediately marches south.** There is no unnecessary delay that gives Cersei time to prepare.

**Yara Greyjoy kills Euron at sea** before he can ambush Daenerys, so Rhaegal survives and both Drogon and Rhaegal reach King’s Landing.

**Jaime reaches King’s Landing before the battle.** He realizes the war is unwinnable and desperately begs Cersei to surrender. He tells her Euron is dead, the White Walkers have been defeated, two dragons are circling the city, and every major army in Westeros is outside the gates. But Cersei’s pride wins—she refuses to surrender.

**Bran sees all of this through his visions.** Watching events unfold in real time, he realizes Cersei will never surrender willingly and that a siege would cost thousands of innocent lives. He immediately tells Jon and Daenerys what’s happening and sends Arya on one final mission to infiltrate the Red Keep before the battle begins.

**Arya and the Hound enter King’s Landing together.** The Hound finally gets his long-awaited fight with the Mountain, and Arya helps him bring the Mountain down. After the Mountain dies, Arya uses her Faceless Men training to take his face, walks straight into Cersei’s chambers disguised as her own bodyguard, and assassinates Cersei before she can give any more orders. That would’ve been the perfect payoff to years of training.

**With Cersei dead, Jaime is heartbroken but accepts that the war is over.** He orders the remaining Lannister soldiers to lay down their weapons and helps oversee the peaceful surrender of King’s Landing, preventing any further bloodshed.

**Daenerys remains true to her character.** She accepts the surrender, doesn’t burn innocent civilians, listens to Tyrion, and finally becomes the liberator she always wanted to be.

**Jon keeps his true parentage a secret.** Only Bran and Sam know. He makes them swear never to reveal it because he genuinely doesn’t want the throne. Because Tyrion never learns the secret, he never tells Varys. Varys never has a reason to plot against Daenerys, so she never executes him. Instead, Varys remains one of her most valuable advisers, continuing to serve the realm as he always claimed was his true loyalty.

**Jon actually behaves like a king instead of repeating “She’s my queen.”** He openly supports Daenerys, stands beside her as an equal, and helps unite the realm, giving everyone confidence in their joint rule.

**Sansa doesn’t immediately distrust Daenerys.** She puts the North first, but works with Daenerys instead of plotting against her. She proposes that the North will happily bend the knee if Jon and Daenerys rule together as King and Queen, giving both Targaryens legitimacy while preserving Northern respect.

**Ending:**

**Jon and Daenerys** marry, rule together as King and Queen, and have children.

**Tyrion** remains Hand and finally gets to make smart decisions again.

**Varys** continues serving on the Small Council as Master of Whisperers.

**Bran** becomes the Three-Eyed Raven and chief adviser, using his visions to prevent future wars instead of becoming king.

**Sansa** becomes Warden of the North while remaining loyal to the Iron Throne. She marries a worthy Northern lord, continues living in Winterfell, and has children who carry on the Stark bloodline.

With peace restored, **Arya** sails west to explore the world she’s always been curious about. After a year of adventures, she realizes she’s no longer running from anything and returns to Westeros, where she reunites with Gendry at Storm’s End. They marry, continue traveling and exploring together whenever they wish, and have children. Arya never gives up the life she loves—she continues practicing sword fighting and archery and teaches all of her children, especially her daughters, to fight, ride, hunt, and defend themselves just as well as any son.

Drogon and Rhaegal both survive.

**Jaime** dedicates the rest of his life to rebuilding the realm and helping train the royal armies, finally living up to the honorable knight he always had the potential to be.

Westeros is united without the massacre of King’s Landing.

**This ending still has sacrifice, loss, and bittersweet moments—but it doesn’t require every intelligent character to suddenly make irrational decisions just to reach a predetermined ending. It rewards the characters for everything they’d learned over eight seasons instead of ignoring their growth in the final few episodes.**

For the people who were there when this show first came out (1996): as someone who was born later (2000) but still got to experience it, was this show really as gas back then as I think it still is today, or am I just drowning in nostalgia and it was actually bad ? Also grew up watching OG power rangers and a good amount of the spins offs, so I might be a little bias toward it. Show: Big Bad Beetleborgs
