Lol at people melting down about a show.
Get a grip. It’s a show. The last season was crappy. Get over it.
Lol at fans demanding an apology.
What you say makes sense, but look at the overall investment some people have placed into this show.
You pay for a subscription.
You devote endless hours to each of the 8 seasons. Hours that you could have invested doing other things.
It's also a somewhat emotional investment, as you get vested in these characters. Much like a good book can make you happy or sad when the protagonist dies, same idea here.
Some people even bought/read the books to add more color to the story.
You pay attention to the plots and build upon the clues the show runners gave you throughout the various episodes/seasons.
Then, at the end, they deliver a very weak ending that lacked much of the wonder the rest of the episodes had.
Truthfully, it could have ended during the penultimate episode and it would have been perfect.
That said, it's just a show and like many shows, there's no guarantee that it will have a phenomenal ending regardless of the build-up.
