I liked the season, i think people expect too much from TV shows. They are bullshit in the sense that you wont ever get the ending you want or know why this or that happened or why things were dragged out because its all written in real life and they prob have their reasons to why they thought it should have ended that way.
They are made to get dragged out so there wont ever be that big reveal or amazing ending people want. You kinda should like it for what it is and keep it moving. I can care less why anything happened, if i like it i watch it and however it ends thats fine be me. Its kinda hard for me to explain what i am trying to convey but i also look at shows like these as one big chapter.
Comparing it to other great TV shows, aside from the genre or fantasy element which people may be into as a premise or not it was def top notch. When you watch great TV shows you can just tell they are good from the production, actors, set pieces, character interactions, storylines, cinematography etc. This season had soo many epic moments like who gives a fuck about anything else.
