Game of Thrones Season Finale Was Mind-Blowing

The epic conclusion to the hit HBO show and fans' reactions to it

Game of Thrones Season Finale Was Mind-Blowing

WARNING. CONTAINS SPOILERS FROM LATEST EPISODE

Where do I even begin to describe my reaction to the season six finale of Game of Thrones? How about unbelievable? Jaw-dropping? Epic? These words do little justice to the finale, as it was one of the most incredible episodes HBO has ever premiered.

From the first minute of the episode to the last was non-stop action and cliff-hanging dialouge that made many people yell at their televisions (myself included), the episode was perfectly executed. The first 20 minutes of the episode were absolutely insane! Cersei Lannister might have made it to the top ten boss women in history after this episode. One way or another, Cersei always gets what she wants and she gets back at any and every person that ever wronged her; starting with Maester Pycelle who was unfortunately killed by an army of little kids.

After taking care of Pycelle, Cersei was about to light things up in the Sparrow's Temple. Queen Margarey, Ser Loras and the High Sparrow were all awaiting for Cersei's arrival but she sat safe and sound in her room as this happened:

Boom.

How epic was that? This was my favorite part of the episode and possibly the entire series right next to the Red Wedding. I won't go too much into the rest of the episode as many of the fans know what happened from Tommen's little trip, Arya finally getting rid of Walder Frey, uncovering Jon Snow's secret of where he came from and Cersei taking her place on the Iron Throne. Here is what some of the loyal, devoted fans have to say about the episode:

"It was actually very good, in terms of keeping everyone on their feet. It definitely left people wanting more. The writers know how to bait an audience and make them dread the waiting for a new season" -Jazmine Gregory

"This episode definitely made up for the drier moments in the season." -Nick Razo

"The season six finale was so great. It gave us so much progression to the story that's been built up for seasons and it was satisfying." -Evan Grady

"Winter is finally here" -Nick Rocha

In my personal opinion, I thought this episode was truly spectacular! Every scene had me shouting at my television screen, as I could not believe what was happening before my eyes. This show has done an excellent job at crafting its story and developing its characters unlike most shows on television. At first, I refused to watch the show because many people would not stop raving about it. I was annoyed until my friends finally convinced me to watch the first couple episodes. immediately, I was hooked and have spent at least $200 in Game of Thrones merchandise.

Now I think it is one of my favorite shows on tv. Not only does it have a fantastic story, but also its characters, settings, costumes, themes and plot twists it incorporates. Many fans would agree as well. I asked fans how and why they got into the show in the first place; this is what they responded with:

"I love the show. I love the character developments and different ties.I started watching it on HBOGO because I finally got the opportunity. And I became addicted instantly." -Jazmine Gregory

"My brother started watching the first few episodes but stopped for a bit. I eventually decided to give it a shot and immediately fell in love with the story. I eventually got my brother hooked, along with a few friends" -Nick Razo

Sadly, now all devoted fans have to wait about ten months until the next season.

Until then, remember all loyal fans, "When you play the Game of Thrones you either win or you die"

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
