TV show description:
This medieval fantasy TV show is an adaptation of A Song of Ice and Fire, the series of fantasy novels by George R. R. Martin. The first is titled A Game of Thrones.
Set in the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros, the series chronicles the violent dynastic struggles among the kingdom’s noble families for control of the Iron Throne. As the show opens, additional threats from the icy region north of Westeros and from the eastern continent of Essos are simultaneously beginning to rise.
Lord Eddard “Ned” Stark (Sean Bean) is the head of the Stark family. He and his wife Catelyn (Michelle Fairley) have five children: eldest Robb (Richard Madden), dainty Sansa (Sophie Turner), tomboy Arya (Maisie Williams), adventurous Bran (Isaac Hempstead-Wright) and the toddler, Rickon (Art Parkinson).
The family’s outsiders are Ned’s bastard son, Jon Snow (Kit Harington), and Ned’s hostage and ward Theon Greyjoy (Alfie Allen).
King Robert Baratheon (Mark Addy) shares a loveless marriage with Queen Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey), who has taken her twin — the “Kingslayer” Ser Jaime Lannister (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) — as her lover and loathes her younger brother, a clever dwarf named Tyrion (Peter Dinklage).
Cersei’s oldest child is Prince Joffrey Baratheon (Jack Gleeson) who is guarded by a scar-faced warrior named Sandor “The Hound” Clegane (Rory McCann). One of the king’s advisors is the crafty Lord Petyr “Littlefinger” Baelish (Aidan Gillen), Master of Coin.
Across the Narrow Sea are siblings Viserys (Harry Lloyd) and Daenerys “Dany” Targaryen (Emilia Clarke). They are the exiled children of the king overthrown by Robert and are on the run for their lives and are trying to win back the throne.
Dany is married to Khal Drogo (Jason Momoa), the leader of the barbaric Dothraki, for the promise of an army for Viserys. Ser Jorah Mormont (Iain Glen) is an exiled knight who’s sworn to protect the fugitive siblings.

What do you think? Do you like the Game of Thrones TV series? Do you think the series should end with season eight?
What more is there to say, Awesome Series. Sorry it ended the way it did. Looking forward to the Prequel.
No please don’t end the best show ever
I am so sad that it is ending. It’s the best show I ever watched and I watch many. Don’t know what to do after tonight. I guess I will start it all over.
Love the show don’t want to end!!!!
I love the show Game of Thrones. I do wish it would end with a season 8. It’s my #1 show.
I love Game of Thrones. I can can hardly wait for the series to resume. Best series ever!
Love this show! Hope it can continue!!! We watch every episode!
for real canceling this show would be the worst mistake for the century, its such a great show just late it continue going
Keep the show going, just when it starts to get good they want to cancel it. These are the kind of shows people want to see.
I love game of thrones , I think they should keep it going 🙂
Maybe the Director can add a Dragons for John Snow cause he is also a Targaryen and he can touch a dragon without any harm from a dragon in return. But it should be a special dragon coming from the dungeon of the North or any place in game of Thrones its still ok and john snow is the main character in the movie so he deserves an ancient strong dragons. That’s my opinion.

I dont understand why you would end such a great show when more and more newbs are just starting to watch this I just wish for once that the media would do what the consumer likes for once instead of the neilson raters this is so out dated
