    The problem with your statement is that you are glossing over that GOT was having problems long before S8. GOT was having problems even before it ran out of books to be based on.

    The show peaked in S3.

    S4 was very much like a great party that is going on too long. The cracks were starting to show and really the only thing that saved the entire season was the Red Viper. Arya’s storyline got so much screen time and went in circles.

    Season 5 was utter dogshit. The whole season was a painful boring slog and only the 6 minute battle of Hardhome is worth watching.

    The show turned itself around in S6. If E1S6 wasn’t very good I was going to quit watching the show.

    S7 was very good though the season had some problems. Mostly associated with scale and travel.

    The issue with S8 are well documented though I like a lot of that season but completely agree with those that say the finale was a dud.
