Maybe the writers just know their limitations and know that they don't have the chops to write this out properly over a period of say 2 more seasons. As Dirty Harry said, a man's got to know his limitations...

In that light, I'm glad they are wrapping this up and not going all Walking Dead and stringing us along with absolute bullshit for 3 more seasons or something. Maybe they don't want the show to go on when the only reason people like it is because of what it once was, not what it's become, because of their lack of creativity in writing it.

HBO is happy to spend money and make a bad ass battle that pretty much lasts an entire episode, so money is not the problem. These guys are just not good enough to write this out and end it well. It's baffling, and a little sad, but at least they know their limitations.

That's what I'm going with anyway...
