GAME OF THRONES [8x6] | EXTENDED REACTION

Y’all have given me too many things to watch tonight IDK WHAT TO WATCH FIRST 🥲

Tracy Jones

I wasn’t thrilled with the ending but, Sansa deserves the North. I wish Jon was King but, as Ramsey told Reek… “If you thought this would have a happy ending, then you haven’t been paying attention.” 🥹

TallTyrionLannister

Although I know a lot of people didn’t like it, my opinion is that Bran was the best choice for king. A person who has access to all of history and can learn from the rights and wrongs. Knows if a person’s intent is true or false, and can appoint the right people to help rule. Can literally see anywhere in Westeros in the current timeline to help avoid conflicts or rebellions. Doesn’t want material possessions and therefore won’t be corrupted by money or power.

Shellbot

House of the Dragon will help so much with getting the bad taste of the finale out of your mouth 🥰 So looking forward to you guys enjoying it!

Ciara Armstrong

I think you’re gonna like House of the Dragon though…

Corey

It wasn't just the Unsullied that wanted Jon to pay. The Iron Islands and Dorne were still allies and wanted Jon to pay as well. I assume Dorne, but we know that Yara did from the interaction at the council.

Corey

"Who has a better story than Bran the Broken?"... how about anyone in season 5. You can't say a character has the best story if you can leave them out for an entire season.

Manuel Tenger

and so our watch has ended.... oddly unsatisfied.

Amanda K

I think you should reconsider Sansa's ending. Her entire character arc was going from a naive girl who wanted nothing but to leave the north to fighting her way back and going through insane suffering to do so. Especially in the last half of the show, she valued the North and Northerners above all else. She was the one to tell Jon if he didn't help her take back Winterfell she would find a way. Everytime she did fight with Jon or Dany it was to stand up for Northern interests over others. Even if you disagreed with her in those moments, she was consistent in listening to what the Northerners wanted and advocating for their needs. From insisting Jon didn't leave it give up his crown, to telling Dany to wait so that the armies could rest. Basically she didn't just tell Bran the North would be independent because she couldn't be Queen of Westeros. She was upholding all the Northerners who died for their independence under Robb and Jon and who sacrificed the most during the war against the Night King. Basically Sansa will always be my Queen 👑.

Ry.Blair

My final thoughts... R.I.P Dany, who was completely fucked over by D&D (Dickhead and Dickhead). I don't blame Jon for killing her despite me being a Dany fan through and through. From his perspective she was mad like her father.

Marcos Paulo

Tell me the addresses of those who said streaming is not a job that I'll go pay them a visit 😂

jaeideun

i still believe that bran is evil and died at the tree. the 3eyed raven is the king now, and i think we know were that will end up because even jon says “is what i did right? it doesn’t feel right?” and tyrion saying “ask me again in 10 years” and also the north being free i know everyone loves that but wouldn’t that cause a ripple effect of the other kingdoms wanting their freedom and fighting amongst themselves and the free north just how they were before aegon united the kingdoms? idk i still hate the ending after 6 rewatches

jaeideun

they didn’t even give dany a chance to let the adrenaline settle and reflect on what she did! she lost everything and everyone right before she burns everything down, shes juiced up after finally getting a win! and the throne she’s been working towards ofc she’s saying crazy things, let her see what she did after she calms down cause i believe 100% she would’ve felt disgusted by herself and her actions afterwards. this is the same dany who locked away her dragons for almost a whole season because they killed a shepards child!

Ry.Blair

Theory: Daenerys will be back 😂 Drogon took her east. They made a big deal in tellingus that. We know that the biggest temple for the Lord of The Light is there. So a Red Priest[ess] will resurrect her and then she will probably burn down most of Westeros not just Kings Landing. OR Drogon is just taking her to Valyria as a final resting place.

ruth cueva

Bran could see the future if you see his visions, they pass very quickly but he sees the septum explode before it happens, he sees a dragon flying over King's Landing... but we also knew it, in the final episode of season two Danny enters in the house of the immortals and she is seen walking towards the throne, the room is destroyed, we interpret that it is snow but maybe it was ashes... when she approaches the throne in this last chapter it is exactly the same only that she manages to touch it but she does not sit down either because Jon appears... Bran's thing is the biggest shit 😂 Rob died for a free north, they named Jon king in the north and they wanted to continue being free... the north deserved to be free, I forgive Sansa for the rest

Tieland

Thank you Cody for saying it! I couldn't comment on what I didn't like about the show because I didn't want to spoil anything BUT here we are! I absolutely hated that Sansa got to become queen of Winterfell. All her life that's all she cared about which caused the death of her direwolf to start. She stuck around kings landing STILL wanting to marry Geoffrey even after he killed her father. She should've left with the hound, so I don't feel bad at all about what she went through with Ramsey. I'm not saying she deserved it BUT she put herself in that situation by only having thoughts of being queen. They took the iron throne from John but give her Winterfell??!!! They could've kept that one!! 🤷🏽‍♀️

Nick Peterson

Who has a better story than Bran the broken, you know, a story so good they left him out of an entire season...

Ry.Blair

The ending that was written by none other than Catelyn Stark herself 😂 Jon exiled with Wildings, Arya gets to be free and do what she always wanted to. Sansa gets to be Queen and Bran gets to be.... whatever the fuck he is.

Lionsfan313

Honestly 80% of the plot points weren’t even bad it was the rushed execution of them. Dany going from save everyone to kill everyone in a matter of like 3-5 episodes isn’t enough. And the way they killed her second to last dragon was stupid an episode ago she talked about the iron fleet and she somehow forgets and runs into them to get her dragon killed. That’s the explanation the show runner gave was “dany kinda forgot about the iron fleet” even tho she mentioned them recently at a meeting with everyone lmao.

I❤️movies&tvshows

Kit Harrington the actor who plays John has done quite a lot of interviews about how the show ends. They are on YouTube. He talks about why he killed Dani, how John felt about going back to the wall, which part of what Tyrion said to him made him choose to kill her etc…. He had to go into inpatient rehab after the show was over he was in a dark place. He also talks about falling in love with his wife during filming and the two children he has now. His spinoff is still in talks so the latest interviews in the last year he is a bit more vague with the questions.

SierraNicole

I though Jon going back to the Wall was a fitting end for him except I barely buy that Grey Worm let him live. Grey Worm was DEVOTED to Dany and truly believed in her. I don't think there's any way he wouldn't have just taken Jon out right away. And like...Jon killed the Queen. And whether or not it was justified, it was totally fair for Grey Worm to demand justice there. He gave the love of his life and so much of his own life for Dany, and Jon murdered her. Also, Sansa deserves the North and she'll be a better ruler for it than Jon. She's smarter, she's more utilitarian (less myopically noble at the cost of more practical concerns), she's strong and savvy...She'll be great. She also stood for her home and the North more than anyone else after she left King's Landing. She supported Jon and his claim and was upset when he handed over the crown and their independence. Her becoming Queen of the North was the best part of this whole finale. And just as an aside, Sansa is my favorite character in the show and I think a true feminist icon. We're really quick to give women respect if they're warriors like Arya and Brienne but that's because we see them breaking into male archetypes as doing something worthy and respectable (which is fine--we need our Joan of Arcs, too). But Sansa represents a very powerful but underrated form of feminine strength--survival. Through millennia of oppression and exploitation at the hands of men, women have endured and survived and Sansa was such a poetic tribute to that type of strength and power. Every time I rewatch GOT, I feel so proud of her for her instincts and her trust in herself and her resilience and her confidence (because how do you go through what she's gone through and maintain your sense of self and power?? Theon couldn't.) So I think her being Queen in the North was the best part of the ending. She earned that.

SierraNicole

That Robyn Aaron glow up tho...the real twist of the GOT finale.

Fonzee

I forgot that this episode is so bad that it gives me diarrhea

Henry Feierman

Btw bran can’t see the future only the past and present (except in small visions that very rarely happen)

Pam Nail

I feel like Jon just goes north of the Wall and becomes the new Mance Rayder.

Mel

Everyone has covered what I wanted to say. Season 8 finale was a shit show. Most of season 8 really. This was the biggest show of all time and D and D wanted to move on so they rushed it and wrote a ridiculous ending. George RR Martin said he had enough of a story to do 4+ more seasons. Maybe by then we'd have Winds Of Winter so could get the ending this epic show deserved. Of all the stupid shit one thing that's so ridiculous is how (if you look back at the scene with Tyrion finding Jamie and Cersei, they were buried under a pile of bricks. If they'd have stood 8 feet to the side they'd have survived. It's all horse shit. 4 years on and I'm still pissed 😤

Mel

Now will you guys PLEASE watch Westerosi Rhapsody 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 it's 6 minutes guys, it's all I ask x

Kendra Muah

Bran’s whole story line completely sucked. For him to be King, yuck

SierraNicole

Also, Jon and Tyrion rationalizing was, I assume, an attempt to make Dany's actions less of a "WTF??" moment. Like the writers were trying to explain after-the-fact that "this was how it was always going to go and we should have known." And their sympathy for her and their praise of her cause despite her methodology, was an attempt to apologize for turning a fan favorite and, at the time, one of the most beloved female characters of our generation, into a monster. I think it was a weak attempt because there was no amount of hindsight or "if onlys" that could make anyone feel like Dany's final three episode arc and sudden fall from grace to death was reasonable or justified. But the intention of that scene was to soften the blow, I think. It's weird, maybe it's because you guys binged the series all the way through and people who watched the first time had years to fall in love with the characters and story, but I, like Jon and Tyrion, bent over backward to defend Dany in the final three episodes. To sympathize, to rationalize, to believe that she did what she had to because I was so unwilling to let the writers so rashly and irresponsibly besmirch and erase my entire conception of her character and story. I didn't have it in me to say "fuck her, she's mad, she's evil, she should die." Not after years of watching her grow and learn and act with kindness and restraint and compassion and intelligence. I even respected her (rather biblical) sense of justice because it was consistent and not egregious in the context of the show. Even now, I still can't see her as the bad guy. And Dany's not even in my Top 10 characters in the show. It's not like a blind adoration. It's just a respect for the character. I couldn't just throw her under the bus. Maybe it's easier when you've only spent a few months with the show. I guess that would make a difference, wouldn't it?

Alvin Fralick

One question in regards to the HOTD… if completed season one by August do u guys plan on live season two in August? Great series guys glad to see your faces cringe when the name the damn tree hugger king 🤣

Alvin Fralick

My only major issue was this… how the hell is Bran going to send him to the nights watch knowing they all died and fought against them at winterfell “who ever isn’t here is with them now”. So they were like ya you helped us and killed the mad queen so now we are sending you to a castle by yourself. I was like who tf is even there they all died but Sam and Jon 😂

Chrissy

Bloody Bran?!? The vacant, “what were we talking about?”, sounds like an automated customer service bot, as King?? I’ve officially seen it all now. That was the most rushed, everything chucked into a blender and mushed into a “what the fuck is that?” monstrosity. No wonder the behind the scenes finale table read looked uncomfortable as fuck 😂😂

PatronPioneer

Listen....Cody had me dyingggggg. These two are the best 🤣🤣🤣

Chrissy

I did absolutely love watching this with you guys though. It wasn’t a show I would have watched by myself and I’ll definitely be watching House of the Dragons

ZOG

The best part of S8 Game Of Thrones is that eventually you finish S8 Game Of Thrones and can finally watch House Of The Dragon. Was a blast rewatching it with you, and now your watch has ended 🫡

AlexTheeStallion

Mad Queen or not, Daenerys Targaryen will always be my favorite character in this show. I just wish the show would have set up her villain arc properly instead of making her go insane in the last three episodes 😓

Bill B.

This should be taught in film schools as the best way to completely ruin what was once the greatest show on television. Everything is so wrong about these last 3 episodes.

thebirdcatcher1

I always thought it was clear that Bran died a long time ago and the three-eyed raven played everyone easily and is king and will take Drogon

Aaron Boone

Picking Bran was the dumbest thing ever.

Chaz D

Idk if you guys have seen it or not but if not, I’d love to see you react to Sons of Anarchy after HOTD. A few others you would love and are great reaction shows is Ozark, Breaking Bad, Prison Break.

Tony Steel

Don’t worry it is not over. Next year we get John Snow, the sequel series that will work its ass off to fix things I am sure. lol. Can’t wait.

izaac

This last episode is so cringe I can't even watch the reaction to it. I will like the video to support my favorite reactors. Can't wait for house of the dragon!

Shakila

I will never not hate D&D for turning Dany into something she's not 😂 (compared to the books). Daenerys will be the only Targaryen to use her dragons for the good, to save the world from the Others and win the true war. This is why she's the ANTITHESIS of her ancestors and that's why she is the last Targaryen. She is not a conqueror like her ancestors, she is a liberator. Just a real shame that they tried turning her into a mAd qUeEn as if we didn't have Cersei right there?? But anyways, Dany's still the most popular character of GOT, even after the last two shitty episodes 🐉❤️🔥

Shakila

The way D&D showed Dany as a bigger threat to Westeros in s8 than the main villain of the series that they built for 7 seasons will never not be crazy to me. How do u mean the white walkers got defeated in just one episode... I think that in the books, Westeros will be the battlefield for the face off between the titular ice and fire. The Others vs Daenerys and her dragons. Hopefully GRRM will release the books someday 😭😭

Shakila

Are you guys planning on reading the books?

kosia

Bran can definitely see the future. He saw the dragon flying over kings landing, He clearly knew Jaime was showing up at Winterfell (him waiting for an old friend) then saying he can never be Lord of anything to Sansa but then saying why do you think I came All this way ..eh he sees the future no changing my mind on that one.

joel

hi sry had to update my card details for membership doh and just wanted to say you might now already but there is a winnie the pooh blood and honey 2 trailer out would be good to see your reaction to it when you have time hope you all ok and well

GoTJake

Welp, I know it’s not the best ending, though it could have been a lot worse, still my favorite show. They rushed the last season, but the acting and quality are still amazing. Would have been great to see Jon as king, but instead he gets to be “free” north of the wall with his buddy Tormond. Not sure what to say about Bran. Cody, you called it a few episodes ago calling him “broken”. Then that ended up being his title. lol. That’s GoT.

LLCoolT

The best thing about this GOT Finale is that it makes way for you guys to move on to HOTD. Let’s just put this behind us and move on. 🫣

Aubriana Trucano

Yeah I will say that ending left my so empty especially going through this series while growing up and just seeing how fast it all fell apart due to rushing it. I think if we had things more spread out and better build up between certain points of the story would have been way better. The one thing I will say is I am super happy about Sansa’s being queen. I don’t think people remember that bran will die at some point he won’t be a stark king forever and then they will elect someone else to be king so the north would then fall under that person. Sansa made sure that they stayed free after bran is gone instead of stuck again under some else’s family.

Alana Jane

I didn't read the books or know anything about the GoT universe prior to watching the series so I only had HBO's interpretation. I really didn't get the disappointment until season 8 (although I can admit season 7 was kinda meh). I am not saying I loved everyone's ending (in fact there was a lot I hated ) but had it been paced out and not crammed into 6 episodes it might have made more sense. I was also unfortunate to being watching the series in real time and we waited SO long for season 8 and ....that's what we got. It just felt like a slap in the face to put out something so rushed and sloppy as the finale season of what was a great television show.

Peter Christopher Banlon

I would have never watched this show again if it wasn't for you guys. My all-time favorite TV show ever up to this point and time was destroyed by the choices directors made. The cost of production skyrocketed between location and actor salary, and it left them forced to cram what should have been two more seasons into the final to make any profit. Cheers!

Anna J

Imagine setting up a character for 6 seasons to be leader of the people, good fighter and archnemesis of the Night King all while keeping this mystery of his true identity. Then after 6 seasons you reveal his identity to be a fucking prince and heir to the throne, literally the son of ice and fire, only to then; a) not give him the ultimate showdown with the Night King, b) not actually use his identity in any way but to make Dany more paranoid, c) not even making him the king in the end, even though he was the only real candidate and the actual heir, d) then exile him back to a fucking frozen wasteland so his epic story and legendary bloodline can die with him. Dan & Dave are the biggest idiots I've ever seen.

Becca

I’ve watched a lot of GoT theory videos. I just watched one the other day that helped me not hate the ending so bad. Maybe it will help you too. I found the creator’s entire series about the Old Ways to be really fun, but this particularly one focuses on those last bits of the show and what why Dave and Dan chose to go this route. Enjoy! https://youtu.be/7ldQyR2lBPU?si=YtZJNrMvC3qG2KI3

You should go to YouTube and look up "The Game of Thrones" Theme Song/Custom Shop/Fender. There are some great heavy metal artists that play the theme song with 3 Signature Special Edition Fender Guitars. The 3 guitars are "Stark", "Targaryen", and "Lannister". I think the guitars range from $30,000-$50,000. They are awesome though. I think there are 6 guitarists playing this song in total: Scott Ian (from Anthrax), Tom Morello ("Rage Against The Machine", "Audioslave"), Nuno Bettencourt ("Extreme), Brad Paisley, David Benioff (Writer of "Game of Thrones"), and D.B. Weiss (Writer of "Game of Thrones"). The "Stark" Guitar is a "Fender Telecaster", the Targaryen Guitar is a "Fender Stratocaster", and the "Lannister" Guitar is a "Fender Jaguar". 🎸🎸🎸

I have a "Stark" Banner on my calf, with blood dripping off of it. Above the Banner, is someone in my family's name, above Ned Stark's Sword, "Ice". Below the Banner, it says, "The Pack Survives". This is my favorite show, and "Lord of tbe Rings" is my favorite movie. I am in the process of getting a half-body suit tattooed on me of "Lord of the Rings". As soon as the rest of my back piece (which isn't much) and my leg are completed, it will be finished...Actually, it is more than a half-body suit. "LotR" and "GoT" also got me into collecting many things, especially weapons. I want to go back to College and get a Ph.D. in "Expertise in Arms and Armor". Ned Stark's Sword, "Ice", Jon Snow's Sword, "Longclaw", the Dagger that Arya used to kill the Night King, and Robert Baratheon's "War Hammer" are a few of my favorites in my collection from "Game of Thrones". This show and "Lord of the Rings" truly changed me. 🛡🗡🏹⚔️🐲🧙‍♂️🤴👸

Erin Black

Great Reaction. I left a longer comment in the Watch-Along Version. I am sorry this Journey had to end. I really enjoy you two. Now, it is on to "HotD". 🤩🤩🤩
