I've felt like that since the end of Episode 3, and I know we get pretty caustic on here about this subject because I've been pretty opposed to it since then but:

Man, you could see there were some serious problems, but not this egregious. Someone else pointed out that they expect to lose 35% of their subscribers after this, but man they're going to really feel it when people don't give anyone a chance with the spinoffs.

They might literally be better off going with other writers and redoing the season if the actors are okay with it. This will not happen ever, for any reason, in any fashion, but if I was HBO I'd say:

Give it a chance. It shows people that they're dedicated to giving us the best product available and that they wish to make amends.

At this point though, this is just a dream that book Bran had and said to himself: Wow, that would be terrible.

That's probably not that far off from normal tho. That's what I've done for the last 4 season's, only keep a subscription for the duration of the seasons and immediately cancel when it's done. Most people I know do the same thing. I take full advantage of my subscription during that time though, enjoying all the good movies they have and trying to fit in rewatches of The Wire or The Soprano's or whatever.

I'll 100% give the spinoffs a chance though, if only because I enjoy the history and more so much. The animated videos on YouTube with the actual actors doing the narration are awesome.

I actually signed a petition on change.org Friday night to remake season 8 that was almost up to a million signatures

But you're right, it'll never happen because HBO doesn't have any real incentive to do that

Im with you. You spent 10 years slow playing storylines and building up twist and turns to all of a sudden throw everything in the hyper drive and burn through everything youve built. I cant remember something i was so hyped to watch be this trash or rushed.
