In another way, GoT may have given them the gift of looking forward to a legit ending.
Sweet relief
Within this context, netflixes policy of unceremoniously killing shows is probably keeping people alive.
Yes, I was almost one of them. I went on living out of spite.
Seriously though, that's a really sad fact of life. Just think about those who died after the "Lost" finale.
Nah, they'd just assume they'd died a year ago and were in purgatory since then.
I did not understand that reference.
Final season of Lost, viewers dubbed the weird plotline that replaced the flashbacks 'the purgatory' they were all in until each had died and they could move on together.
Lost finale was great though.
In the sense that it was a mercy killing, yes
No matter what you think about the Lost ending (I liked it), it couldn't compare to the trainwreck that was Game of Thrones' final seasons
What is dead may never die.
Yup. That's the thing that upset them.
didn't that one guild (web series) character come back from their dream dimension for got?
i never quite got what was so bad about the ending. i heard for years how shit it ended and i waited for the show to become shit and i waited so long that the final episode finished and i was still waiting for the shit

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
