Game of thrones basically checked twitter which characters are fan favourites and the popular ones get the most plot armour. Which is super funny for a show that became famous for killing off characters.
To me Bronn was always the worst offender. He was pretty much just a dude, then they realised people like him or his actor so he almost became a main character. It felt like a sitcom at that point. Or Jamie, surviving his hand getting cut off i. The worst conditions ever… Okay i guess. But when he then fell into the lake with full armour and a bronze hand… Of course sidekick Bronn had nothing better to do than watch him and pull him out. Fuck, i just remember how aweful that show got by season 5 or 6. I still can’t believe they were noth of the wall stuck on that lake and were like: you are a fast runner, right? You go and get help, we chill here.
Tbf, and I’d never defend the show after that finale, iirc Bronn was watching Jamie charge at Dianarys and her dragon and as Drogon began to charge up his fire breath Bronn tackled Jamie into the lake to save him. Still shit writing but it makes slightly more sense.
Don’t you see his pov where he goes down into the lake and he’s already like a few meters under water for dramatic effect. And in the next episode he just pulls his arm out?
You know what’s interesting? When GoT went downhill at season 6 or whatever, i still thought that they could turn it around (lol) and even if they didn’t, i could still come back and enjoy the good seasons.
But that’s not true, at least for me. I never seen a show salting the earth so hard that i still never even thought about rewatching it. And i don’t think i ever will.
I know, I was the same! It had been so strong and there were excellent episodes in S6, so I gave them the benefit of the doubt. S7 felt rushed and wasn’t amazing, but still better than most telly so I thought they were focusing on an epic S8. But then it was ABYSMAL and so bad I can’t watch earlier seasons. The whole point was the story was going to have a beginning, middle and end, they’re not stand alone seasons like true blood. But it was all for nothing

It starts at about 4:00. It makes zero sense that the water is that deep btw but maybe it’s just me.

He doesn’t even pull the arm out he’s just magically saved from the meters deep water in the next opening…
Yep, the waif who was wandering round in broad daylight despite knowing assassins were trying to kill her. And yet was surprised when she got stabbed
The way GoT got is indefensible. The writing got so, so bad and it severely damaged the franchise. It’s just… shit.
