Not necessarily - Viserys burnt from the gold and he was a Targaryn.

Jon also burnt his hand in an early episode when fighting one of the undead at Castle Black, saving Commander Mormont.

So Daenerys being fireproof was part of her messiah complex, as she saw it as evidence she was special, and to be fair she was in that regard.

Just another example of where the rules of the game were somewhat vague.

How did they find out what Jon did - Drogon picked up the body and flew off. Did Jon seriously go out and say "oh BTW I just stabbed her and killed her"? Missed opportunity.

Bran dobbed him in.

He, as the Three Eyed Raven, had it all planned from the start.

I don't get how Jon Snow wouldn't have been instantly lynched when Grey Worm discovered what he had done. In fact, the whole aftermath of the incident was left out, unless I'd fallen asleep and missed it

But three Stark kids on different thrones (6 kingdoms, north, beyond the wall) didn't turn out too badly compared with how the show started for the Starks

Ghost was annoying, only injury appeared to be a missing ear

Drogon was ok, would have liked to have seen him burn Jon (but because he's a Targarian he wouldn't have burned)

So it wasn't all a dragon's dream then?

As opposed to a dog's dream of immortal memory.

4 8 15 16 23 42.

Glad I never bothered watching any of this one.

Think of the time I've saved.

you didn't . . . it was cut to commercial and fast forward 5 weeks

although i do understand now why Pod got so fat, it was to imitate Hodor and push Bran around for the rest of his life

Final episode was fine for me. Kept me guessing. A bit of an epilogue tying up some loose ends, but that's ok.

The fact that Ghost and Drogon were the only emotional parts is telling

definitely would have been more in-keeping with the previous 80+ hours of the show

what pee'd me most off about the last episode (& season) was the bloody musical score, all very bland and didn't evoke the emotion it tried to do.

it's like they got a 90's Hollywood director in . . . all a bit meh, which is a shame because it could have been great

Yep, you can assess how they've sanitised the show as it progressed by doing an equivalent of the old Daily Sport nipple count.

If it had stuck to how things played out in the early seasons they would all have died fighting over the throne.

That scene in the dragon pit where all the heads of the houses are sat around smugly deciding who gets to be King/Queen ("what Sam, let all the people vote, give them democracy?" "oh that's so funny, maybe my horse should get a vote too" ) would have turned into a bloodbath of them killing each other ("last one surviving wins the throne!").

I would have preferred that type of ending.

"and then they lived happily ever after"

[Hobosapien]

Well.....who saw that coming?

Yes completely blindsided me. Never thought my overall reaction to the final episode of the show would be "meh is that it".

Drogon and Ghost got the most emotional scenes.

Tyrion on the throne, he's been playing the long game
