I've never been so bored with GoT as I am now, TBH. It has been cringe worthy so far, and if George Martin were dead his fat ass would be spinning around in his grave. In fact, how the fuck he has let the show get this far out of whack is beyond me. Maybe he's hoping if the tv show ends on such a shitty note then the expectations for the remaining books will be low enough for him to just mail it in.
It's completely obvious that the showrunners miss his books which provided true guidance. To be fair, they didn't sign up for this and no one anticipated the show passing ASOIAF with two books to go. Still, they should be better than this.
Martin laid out major plot points for the showrunners (point A, B, C, D, etc.) and the show is freestyling on how to get from A to B to C, etc. That's what's happening. So
It is a bit of a mess, but I've still been enjoying tbh
