10 Ways Game Of Thrones Has Been "Ruined" Before The Finale

A lot of people had a huge problem with Daenerys' sudden switch to the Mad Queen as she burned down thousands of innocent people. While the idea of Daenerys turning into the main villain of the show is an intriguing and not explicitly bad one, the rushed and poorly done execution of it here is impossible to praise.

It certainly is understandable; Daenerys loses her claim to the throne, loses hundreds of her forces, loses two of her best friends in Jorah and Missandei and has not been received as the queen she wants to be by the people. However, this response was only lightly hinted at a few times before pulling the trigger all too quickly.

The show has one episode left to justify this jarring change and make the Mad Queen work, but given the poor quality of writing in this season, it would be foolish to keep any hopes up for that.
