    OT - Game of Thrones S8

    Seasons 1-6 were epic television and, IMO, the best show ever. The decline started in S7 for me. Still a truly remarkable show in my top 3 all-time. Just not "best ever" in my book.

    Yeah, I've been a harsh critic of S8, but I thought last night's episode was very solid. I suppose my significantly lowered expectations might have something to do with that, but I liked the ending.

    OT - Game of Thrones S8

    Ori, I can't put my thumb on it, but as much as I loved S1 through S6, these last two seasons have been largely disappointing to me. To put it in context, had S1 and S2 been the same caliber as S7 and (especially) S8, I probably would not have made it through them. There's just something...

    Tonight's episode had a heavy Arya focus that seemed to go nowhere. That and the weak killing of Cersei and Jamie render it disappointing to me.

    That's how they kill Cersei and Jamie? Word? Disappointing episode for sure.

    Pretty good episode, no complaints from me.

    Question for those who read the 5 books A Song of Ice and Fire, how does it compare to the TV show? They're quite voluminous and before I embark on thousands of pages of reading I'm curious what you guys think.

    I think it was when she started rocking that tight leather outfit in Season 8. Might be earlier, though.

    Not sure what episode it happened, but Sansa definitely overtook Danerys as the hotter of the two at some point.

    Sportsbook.ag has taken that prop down today, but I saw it yesterday and Jorah was at like +400. If I see they re-post the odds I'll share it here. Interesting that the casino took down the "who will die first?" prop, but kept the "who will sit on the iron throne?" prop.

    They've killed pregnant women on the show before (Red Wedding), but I just think it makes sense like what @D RevLee is saying about having a pregnant woman sit on the throne as a cliffhanger of sorts. My gut tells me Bran sits on the iron throne, though.

    Maybe that was the purpose behind Arya's *** scene. Everyone was so shocked by it, no one seems to mention the fact she could be pregnant and that makes sense for her to sit on the iron throne then.

    You could make a nice profit, but the site I'm looking at caps the winnings at $1,000. You could have some family and friends create accounts and maybe take home $10k or so, but the site would probably know if a bunch of brand new accounts all hit a max payout on a prop like this and they could...

    Believe it or not, there are gambling odds on who will sit on the iron throne at the end of the Season 8 and Sansa has the best odds: Sansa Stark +175 Jon Snow +225 Bran Stark +450 Gendry +450 Daenarys Targaryen +500 Arya Stark +800 Samwell Tarly +1000 The Night King +1000 Tyrion Lannister...

    Very interesting to see the Metacritic scores across each of the 8 seasons. I think they're pretty spot on.

    Each will be about 80 minutes.

    OT - Game of Thrones S8

    S8 e1 and e2 could have been combined into one 80 minute episode to get the fluff out of the way. Last night's episode was weak and didn't even address what's going on in King's Landing.

    OT - Game of Thrones S8

    Real talk, last night's episode was a disappointment. I get the whole "they're setting up the show for the battle" argument, but that was never the formula the first 7 seasons, they shouldn't alter what's been working thus far. The good news is the last 4 episodes are each ~80 minutes long.

    Season 8 runtimes: e1 - 54 minutes e2 - 58 minutes e3 - 60 minutes e4 - 78 minutes e5 - 80 minutes e6 - 80 minutes Just don't check the episode titles, they regrettably give a lot away.

    Not so sure about episode 2 being filler. Did you watch the preview at the end of last night's episode? Looks to have some action in it.
