Decreased. I actually had a lot of problems with Episode 9, narratively. It could have been handled a lot better. I'll give you The Winds of Winter, though. That was a great episode.

season 6 was one of the best seasons so far, it's going to be hard for them to top it

Gendry will be king.
Huh? This makes such little sense. Lol. No one on the planet who had power would be willing to legitimize Gendry, and even fewer would follow him. He also has zero experience with any kind of leadership, let alone ruling

Nah, he's gonna die at the very end, and Gendry will be king.

No, but it also wasn't confirmed so there was an actual chance it wouldn't come to pass or might have somehow been inaccurate. Now there isn't. And I think I'll throw up if we get a generic "Jon is the chosen one, saves the day, kills the walkers, and reunites the realm as king while everyone else in the story turns into a prop for him" ending. Lol

R+L=J has me very concerned about the ending of this show
Why? Did you think it was an unlikely potentiality before the season started?
'Honi soit qui mal y pense'

Decreased, actually. I absolutely loved S6, but R+L=J has me very concerned about the ending of this show

Decreased, one great episode can't save a season of mediocrity.

Game of thrones is dead. Its gone. Body 6 feet under and soul in hell. And it aint coming back.
Thats how i feel about season 6. One of the worst seasons that has aired on tv.
Elia Martell! I murdered her, I killed Her Children and I raped her JUST LIKE THIS!

When season 5 ended, I was definitely still on board, but I saw the seeds of D&D losing interest with their lazy writing. Any time a character was in trouble, somebody popped up out of nowhere to save the day.
Season 6 assuaged my fears, as the deus ex machina trope was used very sparingly.
Going forward, the fact that season 6 went out with such a bang and that the end is in sight completely eliminates my fear that D&D will phone it in from now on.

Just wait til u guys hear the music n see the direction then ull love it just like winds of winter episode

What u dont want the white walker in dragonpit with cersey and the wall falling while jon n khaleesi bang? That sounds like winds of winter oscar winner eps

Increased.BUT if the spoilers
for season 7 are to be believed
nojust no.

I'd say its the stayed about the same. I preferred S6 to S5, but then I think S5 is still a pretty good season of television all things considered. My love for the show has definitely died down over the last two seasons, which is partly because I've seen so many great shows since then, and partly because the show's quality has marginally gone down.
Still, the last two episodes of S6 were absolutely phenomenal, with the finale being a top 20 all-time episode of TV. I'm excited for S7.

Tarly looked like an old geyser on respirator, cannot see him in armour at all
The music and soundtrack was great but the story telling was shyte
Home, BoB and Winds of Winds as all there was, apart from Ser whatshisname giving the red witch a spanking

Increased tremendously. The Samwell storyline annoyed people here, but I'm glad they introduced Randyll Tarly. That uncomfortable dinner scene with Sam and Gilly was very fine drama. Pretty sure Randyll will take the place of Tywin for season 7. The actor who played him was very effective.
Also looking forward to more Bran. I just hope he's more than just a vision-quester. I want more magic from him. I actually want Bran to defeat the Night King.

Increased immensly

Increased. Season 6 was great.

Increased. D&D proved themselves perfectly capable of making incredible TV even without any source. I have no doubt that the endgame will be awesome. We have the lack of Sapo this season which is a shame, but I'm excited to see how Podeswa does and newcomer Matt Shakman. Will we have Sapo for season 8?

My appreciation of the show has been the same since 2011. It's not "Macbeth" and I don't expect it to be. It was pop entertainment back in season 1 and it's the same 6 years later.
Now, as to whether they can end on a high note or not, something like "The Winds of Winter" obviously gives hope. I think they can pull it off in general terms. There will be some unsatisfying arcs, though; it's only natural with there being so many.

Confess.

My faith in the show and the books has decreased bigly.

it stayed about the same. even though they handled the climaxes very well in the finale, the narrative and build up of the season overall is about the same of season 5
apply yourself

Overall I would say increased, but there were definite areas that could have been improved had more thought gone into it. It's strange to have a show that produces moments of utter brilliance and epicness like the Battle of the Bastards and the Light of the Seven, but also moments laughably terrible like the Dorne subplot and Arya's conclusion in Mereen. The showrunners do get some cred for tightening the narrative and keeping the focus on the main characters, rather than just infinitely bloating everything like GRRM has done.
Una!

Inscreased. I think some episodes like The Door and particulary the Winds of Winter are some of the strongest episodes of the show so far.
One thing I can honestly say about all seasons of Game of Thrones, there is always something that blows me away.
