Loved it or hated it, this final season of Game of Thrones has definitely been a ride.

But at last, after 8 seasons, we finally have some answers to our biggest questions.
Here are some of our favorite reactions to getting those conclusions (some good, some bad):

Perhaps because of that discontent, some looked back on those who had passed but had so much potential:

Some talked about how they felt these endings were unjust:

Some just enjoyed the few moments of comedic relief:

The agreed on standout, whatever else was thought about the episode, was Drogon:

Either Drogon is the SMARTEST dragon in the world as he knew the corrupting power of the Iron Throne led to Dany’s downfall or he’s the stupidest and saw a knife in Dany and assumed it was the evil chair made of knives that killed her & he wanted revenge lmao#gameofthrones pic.twitter.com/PryyvUgDvR
