It’s been a few weeks since Game of Thrones ended, and many fans are still fuming. Season 8 was maybe the most anticipated final season of a TV series in history, but it turned out to be a massive disappointment, with particular emphasis on the second half of the season and the finale. Even so, Game of Thrones season 8 got HBO no less than 32 Emmy nominations. Some of them are well-deserved, but there is one in particular that stands out: David Benioff & D.B. Weiss were nominated in the best writing category for the show’s finale.
That’s ironic considering most people criticize the writing of season 8 above all else, especially what D&D did with the final episodes. Because the showrunners are nominated, HBO made available online the actual script of season 8. One of the things the text reveals is that Drogon is nowhere near as smart or insightful as some fans may have believed. He can’t understand any of the symbolism behind a simple action such as torching the Iron Throne.
