Kit Harington as Jon Snow in the Game of Thrones finale
Summary Game of Thrones star Kit Harington looks back on the backlash to season 8, admitting that mistakes were made. The two-time Emmy nominee is returning to HBO, playing a tech bro in the new season of the acclaimed drama Industry. It marks his return to the prestige cable network after the cancelled Jon Snow spinoff and a conclusion to Game of Thrones that is arguably remembered more for the negative response it received.
“I think if there was any fault with the end of Thrones , is that we were all so fucking tired, we couldn't have gone on longer. And so I understand some people thought it was rushed and I might agree with them. But I’m not sure there was any alternative. I look at pictures of me in that final season and I look exhausted. I look spent. I didn't have another season in me.”
Why The Game of Thrones Backlash Continues To Be A Benchmark For TV It Was Still A Global Hit Close On one hand, the backlash to the Game of Thrones finale and the last season overall wasn't unique. The consensus at the time was that the characters' motivations were rushed and didn't ring true, with a common argument being that Daenerys Targaryen suffered as a result of this rushed storytelling.
