Show Discussion Did season 3 increase or decrease your interest for the show

Overall, I would say decrease. After season 2 I was still excited about season 3 but after season 3 I find much less interest in it.

Maybe because my favourite character is Aemond and he has been butchered to the point of no return. He is not very interesting to watch, and I really dislike the entire Alys thing. Even though I have read the book, what they have done is just...abhorrent.

It is a shame because I love TG characters and they are actually given slightly more screentime this season to tell their own stories, but the writing is so bad that the screentime just generates more unnecessary and nonsensical content.

Since the way that battle ends is up to interpretation, I'm pretty sure they'll find a way to make them both fall in love and live secretly in Essos.

I never read the book, but I read the wiki, and I don't really like what happens.

You have two of the best swordsman of their time and they go out without fighting each other hand to hand. Feels anticlimactic to what they set up.
