- Certainly, let's try a more satisfying conclusion:
- The series begins to diverge from the original after the Battle of Winterfell. Jon Snow and Daenerys defeat the Night King together, symbolizing their unity. The White Walkers, a looming existential threat, are a major focus until the end, giving all characters a common enemy to unite against.
- Daenerys doesn't descend into madness, but becomes increasingly resolute in her desire to remove Cersei from power. She shows a growing willingness to use force but doesn't target innocent civilians. Tyrion remains her advisor, trying to temper her more aggressive tendencies.
- Arya doesn't kill Cersei. Instead, she chooses to help Sansa manage Winterfell, demonstrating her growth. Cersei's downfall is a result of her own paranoia, similar to Mad King Aerys, resulting in Jaime killing her to prevent another wildfire disaster, tragically dying with her. This completes Jaime's arc - the Kingslayer becomes the Queenslayer, killing his love to save the realm.
- Jon reveals his lineage to everyone, causing a rift among the Northern Lords and Daenerys' supporters. He insists he doesn't want the throne, proposing a Great Council to decide who should rule. Daenerys, after defeating Cersei, agrees.
- The Great Council is introduced, democratically voting for the next ruler. Given Jon's lineage and heroism, he's selected. Jon refuses, suggesting Bran due to his wisdom and lack of personal ambition. Bran is chosen to be King, Sansa becomes the Warden of the North, Arya leaves to explore what's west of Westeros, and Jon, having fulfilled his duty, returns to the Night's Watch to live peacefully.
- Daenerys isn't killed but is sent to rule Dragonstone, with the understanding that her dragons are an important factor in keeping balance and peace. Tyrion, as Bran's Hand, serves as an envoy between Bran and Daenerys.
- The series ends with hope and a sense of new beginnings. There's a sense of justice and unity, a hard-won peace, a better balance of power, and a move towards democracy.
- Joe’s rating: 9.4/10. Would’ve saved the show.
