AceShowbiz - 2019 is undoubtedly the year that had been long-awaited by fans of "Game of Thrones". The big night for the fans arrived on May 19 as the hit HBO fantasy series aired the final episode of its eighth and final season 8. Given the massive popularity of the show, fans unsurprisingly had a high expectation on how the show would end the story and it seemed like David Benioff and D. B. Weiss' works didn't meet their expectation.
The finale saw Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) meeting her demise at the hands of none other than her lover and nephew Jon Snow (Kit Harington). People might expect Jon a.k.a. Aegon Targaryen to take over the coveted Iron Throne, but it was never his calling. Instead, he made his brother Bran Stark (Isaac Hempstead), who is also the Three-Eyed Raven, to lead the Seven Kingdoms.
Feeling unsatisfied with how the story concluded, fans launched online campaign to urge HBO executives to remake the last six episodes of the show. Responding to the petition, HBO's head of programming Casey Bloys said, "There are very, very few downsides to having a hugely popular show. But one I can think of is when you try to end it. Many people have big opinions on how these characters' stories should come to an end."
