3 and 4 are the best seasons. Lay off the drugs. Season 5 was when it went shit.

What is with this meme that only the first two seasons of a series can be good?

Also, season 7 was good. Season 8 was rushed, but the conclusion was fine. The middle seasons were the worst, mostly because barely anything but aimless back-and-forth traveling happened between the first and last episodes.

Season 2 was complete shit. Season 3 was a return to season 1 form.

Yeah cause some of the plotlines caught up to the book by then. Thats why there were so many characters seemingly wandering around doing nothing, George cant figure it out in the books either

People don't like to be wrong. Season 8 was so bad most people couldn't deny it, but they still try to deny that they were wrong about Season 5, 6 and 7 even though tons of people said it was getting shit then too.

It certainly had started to go downhill by then, yeah. But it wasn't just all awful and full of characters acting like different characters for the sake of a contrived plot. Acting as points along a line, rather than themselves etc. It had some good to soothe the bad.

It got a lot worse, and IMO it was never going to be "good"

Mostly because of all the Night King stuff and what I presume is them combining the story of Aegon into Jon. I get the distinct feeling that Jon is not going to be involved in Dany's story the way he was in the show, but by combining elements of Aegon with Jon they basically had to rush all the made up Night King stuff to get him to Kings Landing at the end.

So even if the writing hadn't been complete shit, they still would have had a really weird situation where the big bad they set up is killed halfway through the season so they can get to all the Dany going mad stuff at the end. Even if they had managed to pull that stuff off successfully, the season would have felt disjointed and weird.

4 definitely showed some cracks. Karl the F***ing Legend, Yara's attempt to rescue Theon, smath the beetleth, and a disappointing adaptation of Tyrion's escape, were a few signs that the show was going downhill.

I don't remember many cracks in season 3.

Yep.

Character favoritism became too apparent when they started deviating from the source material.

Tyrion was supposed to be in a slave camp, not some glorified failure of a councelour.

Barristan Selmy was an army leader, not dead in an alley while an Eunuch takes his place.

Stannis was a good leader, not some kin-burning psycho.

Theon was a blithering idiot, not some asshole who deserve redemption.

Seriously, so many characters got shafted because Doofus and Dingus let their fanboyism take hold of them.
