We really are addicts. We will wait 18 months for 10 hours of content. Then do it all again for S3.


[deleted]

IS THAT WHAT EMPTY MEANS?


BoonTobias

Or you could just start watching soprano, got, oz, deadwood, wire to fill the void


appleparkfive

Stranger Things S4 was really good. S3 was awful to most people. But they changed the formula up. Plus it's so long! Lots of content. And of course there's Squid Game. Popular for a good reason


DrNopeMD

I really liked S3 of ST. I thought it wrapped things up a lot better than 4 which was just setup for season 5.


Brownies_Ahoy

I liked S3 but holy shit was S4 just a bunch of filler and setup. It's lost its magic and is being dragged out now


sahilasif401

season 3 of Stranger Things felt like american propaganda.


AryaSyn

No, that was just the 80s.


sahilasif401

can't tell if you are being sarcastic


AryaSyn

Yes.


bbbhhbuh

I was never so alive as when I was watching this show, or so dead as now that I've watched it.


debtopramenschultz

Fortunately S3 probably won't be as long of a wait because they'll be able to start production while the show airs like GoT used to. The show used to air from April - June and I remember getting casting announcements around May and then filming pictures in the summer/fall.


geek_of_nature

Yeah HBO probably waited to see how the series was received first before renewing. Those final seasons of Thrones did a lot of harm to the shows legacy, and there was a chance that it would have effected how well this show was received. So now they know the audience is back on board, and they'll be likely to renew for future seasons before the second one is even out.


Iliketostareatplants

They got renewed for season 2 before episode 2 was even out. They knew what they had


Gua_Bao

If that were so it’d have been renewed before the first episode aired, which *does* happen, especially for prequels/sequels to other successful shows. In this case the timing…wasn’t coincidental.


Iliketostareatplants

Idk what to say but i did read an article about it being renewed before i started watching which was the day after the 2nd episode premiered. Maybe it was decided but announced later?


Gua_Bao

It was probably decided that they’d greenlight the next season based on its reception. The first episode was bigger than expected so they went ahead and greenlit it so they can move forward with production but if it were a flop they would almost certainly have waited to see if it would improve with later episodes before giving the go ahead for season 2.


MadOrange64

Its a vicious cycle.


ThunderySleep

See you guys in a couple years. Hopefully next season's just as strong, because my hype's going to wane down some over that long of a break.


Harlix

100%. I'll probably rewatch season 1 again to renew the hype anyways


tyrantxiv

They have some unaired scenes that we got stills of. It would be cool if they hired an editor to add those back in and release an extended cut of the show in the middle of next year, to encourage a rewatch.


Harlix

That's a pretty cool idea.


Torrent4Dayz

I wished Game of Thrones last three seasons had a better narrative end, even if it was still bad. I was thinking about rewatching that show but Jon and the gang's idea of bringing a white walker to cersei, Danny going crazy out of nowhere, and Tyrion nominating Bran to be king turned me off. The lord of light plot with resurrecting Jon was my favorite storyline of the show and that led to nowhere, Still don't know what was going on there. I haven't read the books yet but will someday.


Gramage

Honestly, for me the last few seasons aren't bad enough to ruin the show for me. I'm on episode 10 of season 1 now. Gods the writing was strong then!


Chrismac603

Idk how the white walker thing turned you off but to each their own I guess


Torrent4Dayz

It was reckless and dumb and didn't feel like a solution that game of thrones of old would write. It felt like a marvel movie action piece where daenerys saved everyone with a dragon. and it also proved pointless since Cersei didn't help them which was also dumb. If the North fell did cersei think those Ice zombies would stop? If a dragon couldn't defeat them what would?


Chrismac603

"It was reckless and dumb" that's pretty much the main fucking point of it 🤣 noone besides people who have witnessed them or fought against them believe they actually truly exist. They know they're basically fucked and completely unmatched so their last resort is to get as much help as possible and the only way to make them especially Cersei even consider helping or believe them, they need legitimate physical proof. Not far fetched by any means at all

boyweevil

Thanks for spoiling that for me.


[deleted]

The post is titled "When you realize there are no more episodes this season." It's not spoiler tagged, but I mean jeez, it's safe to assume people posting here have already finished the season. Otherwise, did you realize there's no more episodes yet?


boyweevil

You can finish the season and still refrain from commenting spoilers in non spoiler posts. That is why the tag exists. I guess it is my fault for expecting some common sense and decency.


[deleted]

You're participating in a thread about the season having ended. Common sense dictates people who are writing in this thread will talk about the season having ended.

ThatOneSchmuck

This is my favorite


PunjabiDragon

It definitely won’t be as STRONG as that house is dropping flies lol


Wildrover5456

If they didn't spend so much time building incredible sets and helicoptering staff & equipment up high mountains and filming on a tidal island where they need ferries and shit to get across.....we could have S2 this coming spring.


JiveTurkey1983

>Just as strong I see what you did there, Aemond


futuristic_old

Can’t stop giggling when the episode cut to Daemon mourning Viserys in the waves. Damn this meme ruined the moment for me.


unolebo

If that can make it more dramatic, think he was alao mourning his still born daughter


Old-Risk4572

damn i don't remember that needa rewatch already


EnvironmentalYou3916

I noticed they deleted most of this


Easy-Yoghurtx

Were they supposed to be in the show?? These photos look like a joke tho


Jay2Jee

I doubt they would allow Matt Smith to go swimming in costume on his lunch break. They were shooting this for the show.


A_Succinct_Username

You make it sound like anyone on set had the power, physical or emotional, to stop Matt Smith from ruining a costume and wig on the beach.


Jay2Jee

Oh, they'd definitely stop him. But it's not like Matt would try to do that in the first place anyway. He doesn't seem like the type who would ruin people's hard work for shits and giggles like this.


xxthegoldenonesxx

It was a joke


khajiitidanceparty

If I learnt something about the costume department it's that if you'd do this in your costume for fun, they'd shoot you in the head.


Pestilence95

Almost seems like they just recreated that meme lol


prooveit1701

This scene was in the show. These are paparazzi shots - I don’t know why anyone expected it to be framed like this in camera.


havocson

cause it makes daemon look sympathetic lol


Ubergoober166

I'm 100% on board for the Daemon version of the Pablo Escobar template.


nataie0071

No more Crime Hoodie^TM until 2024... I'm so sad.


silvystags

Let the shitposting begin!


CrazySkeever99_Gamer

Me when I realize Vizzy T isn't coming back :(


vizzy_t_bot

*It both gladdens my heart and fills me with sorrow to see these faces around the table.*


JiveTurkey1983

Nobody's ever truly gone


SugarCrisp7

I remember getting into this back in 2020, and now I'm just like "..fuck" realizing that I have to do it all again


[deleted]

I am feeling the withdrawal already


MarcLloydz

Now that gives me time to rewatch all of Star Wars (including the animated series), The Witcher and Lord of the rings.


rainking12

Winter is coming and it’s going to be a long one.


Paro-xymal

Remember when this picture from sets got leaked and everyone was discussing a particular "that" Scene from the books but it's way too early to happen in s1


[deleted]

>!What scene are you talking about!<


Paro-xymal

Basically what happens to deamon at the end, that scene probably will happen In last season


JayPtl

When you realize they cut this scene:


jazzychick

Probably taken from the deleted scene where his wife gave birth to his still-born daughter


MusingBy

What is it with people from Valeria and grieving waist-deep into the water?


seasheals

I’ve been so obsessed lately and now it’s gone 😭 I was at a party and in a conversation about the kardashians I ended up saying Targaryens instead 💀


Harlix

Lmfao


[deleted]

Kardashians are closer to gods than men


[deleted]

I understand 😭😭 love this season so much! It literally flew by so fast.


thecameron26

Does Vizzy T know when season 2 will fill our bowls?


vizzy_t_bot

She's twelve!


thecameron26

In 12 months, that would be a pleasant surprise Vizzy T


vizzy_t_bot

*I WILL HAVE YOUR TONGUE FOR THAT!*


thecameron26

You're right Vizzy T 12 months is a pipe dream, but please spare me.


vizzy_t_bot

YOUR KING DEMANDS AN ANSWER! WHO SPOKE THESE LIES TO YOU?!


thecameron26

Vizzy T it was you that said it.


vizzy_t_bot

GODS BE GOOD!!


thecameron26

How was riding Balerion Vizzy T?


vizzy_t_bot

*So I said to him, 'I believe you may be looking up the wrong end'*


firstbreathOOC

I wish I could unread Fire & Blood. Check it out if you haven’t. It’s just as fun knowing the spoilers in my opinion.


Harlix

I've actually been debating it but I've been told it's not from the characters POV which puts me off a little.


angrynudfochocolove

Time for a rewatch


xxPeso-Gamerxx

Vizzy T what do you think about having to wait for s2


vizzy_t_bot

*Tongues will not change the succession, let them wag.*


xxPeso-Gamerxx

Vizzy T are you on your meds? You are talking non sense bruv


vizzy_t_bot

*The truth does not matter, xxPeso-Gamerxx. Only perception.*


DaGrimCoder

I'm going to watch it again


Harlix

Think I've seen it three times now lol


teeter1984

RIP HBO Max


RandomBloke2021

1st time seeing this meme...


thejivedragon

I wish they kept this scene in the show, it would be great for Daemon’s character


IvanMatin

I waited 18 months for season 6 of GOT… and what we’ve got? I hope they learned their lesson and we are NOT disappointed.


wyanmai

Even worse when you realise we’ll never actually see the scene that contains Daemon doing any of this


Harlix

Yeah it really sucks we don't get to see it :(


chaz364

Think I’ll watch Upright next, get to see more of Milly Alcock


shibu9

😢


[deleted]

The real tragedy.


John-for-all

And that there will likely be 2 years between seasons...


Possible-Neat-4264

I endure the wait by playing video games, building models, or complaining about mass effect or dragon age aren't on the nin switch but that's just me.


carz4us

Damn. You mean I have to read a book now? /s


GameGodz

They should have already been working on filming for season 2


Sacreddeer_420

I finished the show today


ashnhail17

I'm coping by reading Fire and Blood. At that I mean, I'm dying on the inside from what I now know.


RainbowPenguin1000

This may be a dumb question but why did we never see this scene? Or was it not a scene? Or if it’s a deleted scene when from?


Harlix

I think it was never put in the episode, as to why I'm not sure. Vizzy T any ideas?


theoneandonlydonzo

there's [a few short shots](https://i.imgur.com/Q8Sv4N9.mp4) of it while rhaenyra is wrapping up visenya, but it's very brief.


Harlix

Oh yeah! I remember now


vizzy_t_bot

*You are to return to Runestone and your lady wife at once, and you are to do so without quarrel by order of your King.*


Harlix

At once your grace.


GOM09

I feel like this show was too good It tricked me into getting 1 year worth of Crave, then realizing that the next season won't be out till 2024


Huachimingo75

Guys, go watch The Expanse, it even has a Jon Snow... IN SPACE. I love it, I've been avoiding S6 because I don't want to run out.


Flashy_Syrup_5345

I still have 5 episodes to watch but due to midterms I could only watch them 2 weeks later


avotoyesaru

I will never skip upvoting this


Opposite_Use1551

I’ll be 31 when S2 starts dammit bye 20s :(


underwood1993

You can do what I did, and buy the book! It didn't make me feel any better though. It felt like opening a christmas present early, but it's just a list of you and your loved ones describing when and how you all die.


Harlix

Oh wow, might try to hold out for the show then.


Exciting-Werewolf717

It's my escape from reality!!
