Watching Game of Thrones has honestly been one of the most unforgettable TV experiences of my life. From the very first season, I was completely drawn in โ the raw brutality, the political twists, and especially the moment Ned Stark was killed. That single scene made me realize this show wasnโt afraid to break rules or challenge expectations. As I moved through Seasons 1 to 6, I felt completely immersed in the world. The story felt deep and well-built, and every character choice seemed to have weight. It was clear that George R. R. Martinโs influence and worldbuilding were guiding everything.
But after Season 6, I started noticing the shift. Since Martin hasnโt finished the books yet, the show had to move forward without his complete direction โ and I could really feel the difference. Things began moving too fast, characters I loved suddenly started making strange decisions, and the emotional build-up that once felt so natural started to disappear. The toughest moment for me was Daenerysโs ending. She was one of the characters I rooted for the most, and seeing her story wrap up so harshly and suddenly felt more like the showrunnersโ personal take than the ending the books were building toward.
Even with all these issues, I canโt pretend the show didnโt give me an amazing ride. The battles, the drama, the suspense, the emotional highs and lows โ it kept me completely hooked for years. The world it created was so powerful that even its flaws couldnโt overshadow the overall experience. Thatโs why, for me, Game of Thrones still earns a full 5 stars. Not because itโs perfect, but because it delivered some of the most intense, entertaining, and unforgettable moments Iโve ever seen on screen.
