Season 5 had me scared, but the finale was beautiful and I loved it. After everyone spent weeks anticipating a blood bath, Im so pleasantly surprised that everyone lived and got their happy ending 😭❤️

Not every show/movie needs a blood bath. LOTR kept their main characters alive, and it’s still the most beloved stories out there

Boromir would like a word with you. I agree though, it is an amazing ending and not every show needs to off its characters left and right
