That is to say, I don't have much of a problem with the places where the people ended up, in theory. Where they are at the end could well be where GRRM leads them. The show just did a completely shit job getting them there...
GRRM likely will not. Assuming he does at all.

Like I said, I don’t know what to tell you. To argue that the characters haven’t advanced since Jon got resurrected is a bit over the top. Beyond that, though, the show was always going to have to pick up the pace. They went way over the top, I agree. I just feel compelled to push back against the D/D are the devil narrative. They’ve got problems, but largely the story hit a bunch of Martin-esque beats, hit a bunch of Martin-esque narratives, and ended in a Martin-esque manner. There are things to complain about and I’ve done it. But D/D aren’t the devil that many want to paint them as.
