Jon not ending up as the King is ok but not even mentioning it during that shitty reunion they had when they were giving options for King ? That's just weird to me
Television Game of Thrones (TV) • The watch has ended

Best ending I ever saw. Absolutely brilliant television. The whole sixth season is great.I liked Sopranos last episode.
So Jon was overlooked as a) neither the Unsullied nor Dothraki would accept it and b) Westeros was taking its first steps away from inherited power and, therefore, breaking the wheel.
Is that right?
If so, it's not that fecking contentious is it?

Rumours say that it is gonna be set in The Old Republic, so a KOTOR adaptation seems to be the leading contender.
I'd probably go 1, 3, 2, 4, 6, 5, 7, 8 order wise. First three are quite interchangeable though, and I prefer certain aspects of 5 to 6 but found 6 more entertaining overall.
But it was the very reason why Sansa broke her oath and told Tyrion. Which was why Varys was ultimately killed. They all came to the conclusion that Jon was the far better choice to be King. How else were they expecting Jon to achieve this outcome? His best friend, 3 family members, his chief adviser and the guy he just saved (Tyrion) were all present in the meeting and not one of them name checks him? What a bunch of cnuts.
Biggest feck up( except, well the whole main plot) in whole season are numbers. They are all fighting from day one and still have thousands of soldiers. Northerners were with Rob in battles, then on red wedding, then battle of bastards, then battle for Winterfell and still there are thousands of them in last battle and after that. Lannisters the same. And what to say about Dothraki and unsullied? .
.It's all shit my man. That council scene was like something out of a parody.
I mean ffs they made Bronn Master of Coin and Lord of the Reach, you really can't do anything but laugh about all of it.
Tbf at that point he was Grey Worm's prisoner and they were moving away from the "rightful king" approach anyway. Can hardly nominate Jon when he's specifically the guy Grey Worm wants dead. Losing the throne is the price he pays for killing Dany really.
What irked me far more is the fact that Tyrion was randomly allowed to nominate a king in that situation, or how sanguine Grey Worm was when his demands for Jon's death were downgraded to a non-verifiable promise that Jon would go home to rejoin a organisation he still basically runs.
Johns gonna have to kill Dany isn’t he
At the end of it all John will denounce his right to the throne and take back his place of lord commander at the wall and, as a guess, instead of handing down his claim to the throne to Sansa he’ll disband it back to the seven separate kindoms for them all to live happy ever after for a few hundred years.
Well i was on the right path at least.
You'd be a great lawyer if you're not already

True. Fecking Tyrion walks away as the second most powerful man in all of Westeros, and the most powerful actual person since Brann is some weird mystical being now.
Poor Jon has to feck off and never take part in the affairs of Westeros again, even though it was Tyrion who convinced him to actually do it.
And all Tyrion can do to comfort him when he asks if it was the right decision is go 'ehhh .. i dunno bro ask in 10 years might have been a goof'
.Why didn't Bran just facking pardon Jon. You know with him being king and all...
The toilet scene is brilliant, complete destruction of his fathers dignity. A fitting ending to a nasty character
What about when he was saying his goodbyes to the family ? Couldn't Sansa or Arya say something to that effect " It could/should have been you".
Tyrion, in a blink of an eye, going from prisonner to the one choosing Bran was incredibly stupid, who the feck comes up with an idea like that ?
What is the point of night's watch now?
Bran is the biggest cnut of all the Kingdoms. He just wanted that throne and nothing else
I'm going to sign it now to spite that cnut.
Because they were basically still negotiating with Grey Worm who had Jon prisoner and wanted him dead. Thus the compromise, as Tyrion explained to Jon.
Even a stopped clock gives the right time twice a day.
I wish I could be as stoic as Piers 'couldn't even handle one mouthful of a fecking vegan sausage roll' Morgan.
Definitely doesn't complain all the time about stupid shit like fireman sam being rebranded as firefighter sam, nope not at all.
I get that but Grey Worm had no authority to make any demands. He had Jon hostage though I guess.
Because 2000 unsullied will hear that and sail back across the sea and burn Westeros.
Who gives a feck what that prat Piers thinks? Quoting his shite just makes him relevant.
I thought the petition was silly but I'll sign it now , give me back my hours
, give me back my hoursObviously they got a fair few things wrong this season. But with Jon going beyond the wall again. I feel like they could of teased something for the future. Some sort of blue eyes on a child or something. It's just pretty sad now that it's done.
Not many hour + 16 min youtube vids I'd bother sitting through but couldn't stop watching that.
I think I might rewatch it soon. Wire too
I feel the Arya going west ‘to lands not yet explored’ sounds like a perfect spin off setting.
He's the boss. Show never recovered from his loss.
Well it gave me a big laugh at least.
Just think about it:
- His Arc started with the fecking Nightswatch. Everyone was hoping that he will someday interfere somehow in the Iron Trone games representing the Starks against the Lannisters after beheading Ned, the red wedding etc.
- Meanwhile he gets involved with the biggest threat: The Wights. Gets bigger and bigger. Becomes the Lord Commander. Unites the Wildlings and the Watch.
- He fecking died as the Lord Commander, just to get resurrected so he could finally become part of the Westeros storyline.
- He wins the battle of the Bastards, avenged the red wedding, becomes the King in the North (biggest moment in the whole series for me personally)
- He finally meets the other main protagonist Danaerys, convinces her to march/fly north, falls in love with her, fecks her, kneels.
- Everyone knew that he has a huge destiny after Ned told him that he would tell him about his mother if they meet again. And it was clear once we learned about her: His destiny was the Iron Throne.
All that build up.
He went all the way.
Just to get banished to the fecking Nightswatch, AGAIN!
I really couldn't stop to laugh when Tyrion told him about it. It would be even more funny if it wasn't that sad.
What if Jon didn't want to be pardoned? He had his best time north of the wall. Think he's looking forward to spending time with Tormund, Ghost and fecking wild chicks.
Because 2000 unsullied will hear that and sail back across the sea and burn Westeros.
Tbf it would be entirley in Jon's character to stupidly and pointlessly stick to a vow to rejoin the NW even when there's no actual reason to. Especially as he's stupidly and pointlessly feeling guilty for killing Dany when there's no actual reason to too.
Didn't seem to be that many wildlings left, let alone ones who look like Rose Leslie.
Most of them probably have wildling husbands too. Poor Jon.
Yep. Suppose the unsullied wouldn't allow for it, but feck'em.
Poor John. What was the entire plot point of revealing him as Aegon Targaryen? It was such a massive reveal but all they did with it was allow Sansa to cause a bit of mischief and get Varys killed? Literally, that was it. Varys' letters I guess also never made it out to anyone.
No white walker or Lord of Light reference in the final episode ...was kind of hoping for a hint that the NK storyline and it's connection with Bran might not be over.
Just rewatched some of the opening scenes before the episode took a dive and the visual direction is just majestic. Dany's speech was chilling (compare and contrast to Kit's speech in episode 4), the music was great and it looked just perfect. I could've happily watched a whole season of the aftermath of her 'liberating' cities in the winter before Jon or whoever stopped her. The set up and pay off of the 'mad queen' would have worked better with an extended season.

This was my first thoughts about the final 30 minutes as well.
I wish there would have been a scene where Jon basically said I don’t want to be a Stark, a Targaryen and certainly not the King and that I’d rather have the life of a bastard after all I’ve been through and go mourn and grieve up beyond the wall where I was happiest, renounce the crown and then cue that political roundtable scene, with no mention of Jon.
