So Sansa was so concerned with Bran not being able to have an heir. She is Queen in the North now, who will be her heir? Is she going to call Jon when she's ready to bear children, then send him back to the Wall? Is she going to have a child with the King of the Vale? Who will be worthy enough for her to want to bear a child with? Btw both of those men are her cousins. Just makes no sense to me.

As I said before, Jon would be free to do anything he wanted. The Unsullied and Dothraki left and aren't coming back. No one else would give a shit. He has no interest in challenging anyone's authority. He's tired of fighting. The only five people left who know his true identity have no reason to share it with anyone else. But all things being equal, hanging out with Tormund and Ghost and the free folk is probably the happiest ending he could get.

Tyrion. Only halfway kidding. Hah. Halfway.

While I understand this reasoning, most people watching this show expected him to stand tall at the end.

At least the memes have been incredible this season lol...

I think it was implied that the night's watch was a wink wink move. He will barely touch castle black. He gets to live a happy life beyond the wall witb tormund, ghost, and among the wildlings. He's not being punished like the dothraki and unsullied think. He was his unhappiest pretending to be aegon targaryen so arguably the conventional ending of putting him on the throne would have been am unhappy ending. He gets a pretty happy ending when you really think about it.

The council deciding who is king scene was a crappy scene. Seemed like everyone mailed it in from the acting, the writers, the production staff allowing water bottles to be shown, the editing crew didn’t catch that or worse just said fuck it and wrapped up the scene.

I would’ve liked an ending where samwell Tarly at 86 or whatever was reading the SOIAF book to his grandson and his grandson asks if it’s a true story and samwell says it’s all bullshit. Then the grandson looks at him and goes you are one sick fuck. Roll credits. :-)

I think more than anything he'd just like to step out of the spotlight and be left the hell alone. His whole life has been varying degrees of shit. Getting drunk with Tormund, hunting with Ghost and finding another fine ass redheaded wildling to shack up with would probably be much more appealing than being Sansa's errand boy at Winterfell or training troops in King's Landing.

I felt like the character got hosed from not killing the night king or being king at the end, it was like both of his long term rewarding story arcs were cast aside when in reality he should have been a triumphant character as the show ended.
[Reply]

I don't think he cared about killing the night king as long as he was dead. And he absolutely did not want to be king. He would have been miserable, and he also would have sucked at it, since he has zero political instincts and is too pigheaded to heed politically savvy advice if it goes against his Gumpish code.

The dude is NOT omniscient. What he does takes time and effort, and he can't watch everyone. I suppose he can spend ALOT of time keeping an eye on the key actors, that is true.
[Reply]

Fair enough. However I didn't say folks can't or shouldn't criticize, but to pretend that the ending you (not you specifically) have in your head is the obvious better ending, perfectly executed, that would satisfy all, is a fantasy.

Whenever there is a hit show or movie, the inevitable enraged fan-base rises up and calls for the public annihilation of the show or movie runners. Everything is awful - all the time.

Why the hell would she pick Jon? Why wouldn't she just pick whoever she likes and make him take her name? :-)
[Reply]

Oh well, at least we have the memes!
