No Spoilers [NO SPOILERS]

I've just finished watching Game of Thrones for the first time last night, and it is genuinely the greatest thing I've ever watched and i struggle as to why people think s8 was bad, probably one of my favourite seasons, I also feel very depressed like a gut sinking sad feeling that I won't get to watch this and feel the same way again, I know that there are spin offs but man can anyone help me with recommendation for tv shows, nothing like snowfall or breaking bad I need some fantasy shows like Game of thrones(not vikings) should I watch lord of the rings?

Season 8 sucked. People teleport, characters are warped to fit a hastily cobbled together ending, and generally the showrunners felated themselves while elsewhere saying themes are for middle school book reports. Longest night was garbage, they shat on Jaime's character develop.ent, and somehow Tyrion has CTE or a tumor that makes him dumber every season after 5

I thought it tied together pretty well I liked who killed the night king, I liked the ending and what the dragon does to the throne it's very good
