The Game of Thrones prequel series House of Dragons premiered on August 21 and the spotlight is once again on George R.R. Martin, who penned the book on which the show was based. While many fans are excited about the new show, the debate about the original Game of Thrones series continues to rage on.
Diehard fans of the series felt that the show ended on a low note and did not live up to the standards set by previous seasons. The debate on how the series should have ended is a continuing topic in forums and community pages.
