Game of Thrones had a shitty last 2 seasons.
(hexbear.net)
I don’t get it
They dragon woman in GoT was punished for doing objectively good things until randomly committing a genocide that was entirely out of character, or so I've heard. If I got a detail wrong, it's cause I watched the first episode and decided the show sucked, then everyone else caught up with me after finishing.
Specifically she freed all the slaves she could and basically built a coalition of former slaves as her advisors while crucifying slave owners
Then she “went mad” and decided actually she needs to genocide all the stupid commoners instead just because one of her dragons got killed
Danaeres story was so orientalist that her 'turn' made me think that there was a deconstruction hidden there that got lost in adaptation.
I think at that point GRRM never actually wrote the books for the last few seasons (fans are still waiting lol) but be might have said what he was going to do in those books to the TV show writers. But since it was never fleshed out, the TV show writers apparently decided to make the last few seasons "not fleshed out". Or, they just weren't capable of original writing that wasn't copying the (allegedly good) source material.
