Thanks for the thought but from what I’ve heard from friends I’ll be keeping the final season unwatched just like I did with the last 2 episodes of GoT.

The first season was the only really good one.
Exactly, even the second one was a poor caricature.
I don't understand this at all. The episode 4 ending was up there with Dear Billy for me.
It's been a while - I remember liking the first two seasons. Season three felt a bit silly to me without going into much detail (we need a spoiler text wrapper for HN). Season four has a lot of "zombie-esque" stuff which just doesn't have near the dread horror that the first two seasons did IMHO. Haven't seen any of the final season.
Yes I also let my girlfriend skip the last two episodes. Tyrion Lannister did say "if you think this has a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention".
That was Ramsay Bolton who said that, I believe.
As someone who hasn't watched GoT, only heard of it from others, let me guess: In those two episodes everyone dies a very cruel and painful death, except for one or two main characters?
Everyone already died a painful and cruel death for the first four seasons, that was what made the show so compelling to watch.
From that point on, everyone gets 10 inch thick plot armour, and then the last two episodes skip a whole season or two of character development to try and box the show off quickly.

Death is not a problem in GoT, the exact opposite, it is what the show is known for.
It's the way stuff is done, the characters' changed behavior, incomprehensible logic, stupid explanations, etc.
It's almost like you're living in an alternate universe where everything is just a little bit better.
It’s very bad.
It really isn't. I keep seeing comparisons to the last seasons of Game of Thrones, but while there is a dip in quality this season, it is no where near as bad as what happened to GoT.
GoT got so bad that I don't really have any desire to watch any of the seasons ever again. Killed rewatchability.

All of the characters are constantly arguing with each other. The story line requires constant suspension of belief based on the endless succession of improbable events and improbable character behaviors. Contradictions with earlier episodes and even details within the same episode. It's really bad. I hope the final episode redeems it but I have my doubts. I want to have an LLM rewrite season 5 and see how much it improves.
problem is the dialogues sounded to me anyway like they were already written by an LLM
Can you give an example of a contradiction within the same episode?
