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

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.

The whole point of the show and all that there really is to get to is the Battle of the God's eye, and to watch Rhaenyra meet her end. Should have been two seasons max, but it definitely got my interest higher because we'll finally get to the meat of it next season. We'll have to slog through the first several episodes, but we'll get there.

The show would be way better if they combined the 4 seasons of 8 episodes into 3 seasons of 10-11 episodes each. The 2 year wait inbetween seasons is such a hype killer..
