With the SAG strike and post production time it was always going to be tough to stick a landing this season. Not a bad one overall and they did take the lighting feedback seriously.

I was looking forward to this season as I felt Season 1 ramped up nicely towards the end of it, but I did feel that Season 2 dragged on a bit and as someone said before was 2 episodes too long for the story it had to tell, Season 3 had better not fuck about as much!!

Give it a miss so. The lead goes by they/them and the final episode has a trans playing a lesbian.

Just got around to watching it, I needn't have bothered. Another shite season with only slightly more happening but fuck all plot progression. Seemed like an extended prologue to season 3, which I doubt I'll bother with. As for the finale, what an anticlimax.

Yeah the finale was poor, and the whole season was 2 episodes too long...the progression was frustrating...

I've just realised that the first episode of season 3 came out a few days ago. Anybody watch it? I'll prob watch a recap video on youtube and then wait for episode 2 to come out before watching the first one. I hope it's not as drawn out as the last season, it did have its moments.

Still haven't watched Knight of the Seven Kingdoms either.

I just watched the first episode there. Plenty of action in this one to try to spice it up but I still found it tedious. It's all the more tiresome when almost (if not) every character is an arsehole in one way or another, it makes it hard to invest in anyone.

Added to that is the nearly two year gap, which means I've forgotten nearly everyone's name and haven't a clue which secondary characters are on which side.


Yeah!
It was a pretty deadly episode, to be fair.

I watched a season 2 recap, which left me having to watch a season 1 & 2 recap, rewinding several times for everything to sink in. It was like studying for a history exam  :laugh:  I forgot how fucking deceitful just about every character can be, so much snaking and conniving going on. It's been 4 years since season 1 started, I'd forgotten a lot of smaller details, especially who's related to who etc.

Wasn't expecting the first episode to be so action packed, it was class! Probably should have happened at the end of season 2 really. Second episodes was good too, pure emotional.

Looking forward to watching episode 3 tomorrow  :abbath:
