I don’t get ppl who say “But Daenerys was never evil, only good!”
You were blinded by the blonde. The greatest evil grows in ppl who become convinced they can only do good.
But the two missing eps should have been used.
1. How Stark fam decided to go with Bran as King. You’re expected to assume they did, bc Sansa and Arya both walk away happy, and we already know Jon didn’t want it. But the abrupt jump to the conclave DID. NOT. COHERE.
These items (esp thing 1 - Starks) persuade me the two missing eps were actually storyboarded as eps, then the show runners just went eh, fuck it. We’re done.
My suggestions all seem so natural, and so in line with S1-7, that I’ve convinced myself showrunners just fucked off two whole eps out of spite or ennui.
There’s no fixing that. I’d not hire them.
