I was late to Game of Thrones \u2013 I think I started watching it in preparation for Season 6, and timed my binge-watch such that I could finish Season 6 around the same time as everyone who was already caught up to the show.<\/p>\n
Ned’s death.<\/p>\n
The conversation between Cersei and Robert might’ve been the moment when I think I fell in love with the show<\/p>\n
Arya and the Hound was nice<\/p>\n
Jaime and Brienne was nice<\/p>\n
Rob’s relationship with Talisa seemed silly and naive<\/p>\n
Littlefinger was a great character at the start but became a little tedious and annoying towards the end.<\/p>\n
Sansa was incredibly annoying at the start and grew into someone sensible \u2013 kind of how I feel about the Martian lady in The Expanse<\/p>\n
Hodor’s scene was very powerful<\/p>\n
I thought the torture of Reek was overdone<\/p>\n
Bran was tedious and annoying, poorly written in the show<\/p>\n
Cersei’s blowing up of the Sept was great<\/p>\n
I wish Margery didn’t die, she’s one of my favorite characters<\/p>\n
Joffrey was written well as a hateable little twerp<\/p>\n
Tywin Lannister was a good character<\/p>\n
Jon and Dany are both kind of boring though likeable in a straightforward sense<\/p>\n
Jon’s realization of his privilege was a good scene<\/p>\n
Bronn’s a fun character<\/p>\n
I’ve grown to like Jaime \u2013 he had his flaws and foibles but he also tries to be good, and he’s kind of trapped by his love for Cersei<\/p>\n
I wish we were allowed to sympathize more with the Night King and the White Walkers<\/p>\n

Really disappointed with the last season, it could’ve been so much better. Have a thread about this<\/p>\n
On retrospect my favorite character was Margaery Tyrell, have a thread about that too<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
