You know a lot of people say this about a lot of different shows, but Game of Thrones is absolutely, without a doubt, one of the best TV shows ever created… it’s damn near perfect (except maybe for the last few episodes of the final season) and easily one of my favorite shows ever! Yes, the last episodes of season 8 weren’t that great and the finale was just awful, but the first 7 and a half seasons were so great that it still gets a 10 for me! It’s one of the rare shows that I can watch from start to finish and never get bored. I’m pretty sure there’s never been a show that’s been more talked about or loved in the history of television than GOT. All you have to do is read the reviews to see how loved this show is! It’s absolutely amazing.
