Not just a specific scene, or episode, but characters repeatedly surviving when they shouldn't.

You know what's interesting? When GoT went downhill at season 6 or whatever, i still thought that they could turn it around (lol) and even if they didn't, i could still come back and enjoy the good seasons.

But that's not true, at least for me. I never seen a show salting the earth so hard that i still never even thought about rewatching it. And i don't think i ever will.

I know, I was the same! It had been so strong and there were excellent episodes in S6, so I gave them the benefit of the doubt. S7 felt rushed and wasn't amazing, but still better than most telly so I thought they were focusing on an epic S8. But then it was ABYSMAL and so bad I can't watch earlier seasons. The whole point was the story was going to have a beginning, middle and end, they're not stand alone seasons like true blood. But it was all for nothing
