The last series of Game of Thrones is getting a chilly reception. A petition calling on its makers, HBO, to redo season eight has been signed by more than 500,000 unhappy fans.
The latest series of the popular show which is based on George RR Martin’s books, has faced a barrage of criticism online.
Disappointed viewers have taken offence with the show’s narrative structure and the fate of beloved characters.
The Change.org petition, launched after this week’s penultimate episode was aired, goes further by demanding a complete do-over “with competent writers”.
The writers, the petition charges, have “no source material to fall back on”, alluding to the unfinished books season eight is loosely based on.
