10 TV Show Endings That Get Worse The More You Think About Them

2. Game Of Thrones - The Iron Throne

Buffy the Vampire Slayer Chosen
HBO

Game of Thrones suffered through its final season, losing sight of its tightly plotted execution, countless characters, and numerous conflicts, and it dropped the ball to an almost unforgivable degree with its closing hour.

There are truly too many mistakes to list off here, but the most egregious - from Dany's assassination, Bran becoming King, and Jon returning to The Wall - are all brought to life in the most unwanted ways imaginable.

Wasting years of development, The Iron Throne forces fans to accept Dany's madness with mere scenes of build-up that feel completely off-base with the rest of the series, and fail to take into account her relationship with Jon or her previous portrayal as a just and liberating leader.

On top of that, there's also the loose ends the episode leaves hanging, the most confusing of which is surely Dany's dragon Drogon flying off into the night, never to be seen or mentioned again.

Are we really supposed to accept the fact that Drogon escapes death without being hunted down or wreaking havoc across Westeros? Or that Tyrion can create a new government whilst a prisoner of war? Give me a break.
