Wrapping up one of the biggest TV shows ever made was always going to be a mission of epic proportions. And, while the final six episodes of the saga are not the disaster many naysayers would claim, there’s no question they struggle to deliver on eight years of ever-expanding hype. Aside from a surprisingly talky opening episode, the entire season ...
After numerous seasons of increasing complexity, season 7 is where the writers had the finishing line in their sights. Even so, it's still not as tight or fantastically foreboding as it should be. Sure, it’s not as much of a dash as the final season, but the show's penultimate installment makes some bizarre sacrifices in the name of narrative conve...
Maybe showrunners David Benioff and DB Weiss were getting antsy about overtaking George RR Martin’s books, but this season feels like a show on standby, waiting for bigger things to happen. Aside from the White Walkers’ terrifying assault on Hardhome – arguably the moment the undead Night King out-bads Cersei to become the biggest threat to Westero...
After Ned Stark parted company with his head, this was always going to be a very different beast to its predecessor. Season 2 expands the show’s scope and ambition considerably, taking us to more locations on the opening credit's wonderfully devised mechanical map. As Daenerys and her baby dragons set out from Essos on a journey to fulfil her desti...
One shocking scene in season 3's penultimate episode The Rains of Castamere will forever define Game of Thrones and catapulted it into the cultural mainstream.

It’s easy to forget how radical Game of Thrones' debut season was. Arriving a few short months after AMC's similarly violent The Walking Dead, HBO’s punt on George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire novels showed the world that screen fantasy didn’t need Hobbits, Elves, and magical rings to be successful. Indeed, part of its first year’s genius w...
Two episodes in, Game of Thrones’ fourth year gets its Simpsons-style ‘Who Shot Mr Burns?’ moment when the utterly detestable Joffrey Baratheon is fatally poisoned. Suffice to say, everyone's a suspect, hence the Simpsons comparison. This bold opening sets the tone for a season that becomes a tour de force of fantasy storytelling; an infectious ble...
If Benioff and Weiss were apprehensive about overtaking Martin’s books (which they seemed to be in season 5), you wouldn’t know it from the wonderfully assured season 6. While Daenerys is busily rounding up allies on the other side of the Narrow Sea, Ned Stark’s descendants take centre stage: Arya starts working through her kill list in earnest, Sa...
