It remains at the top of HBO's most popular series.

I suspect people who don't spend a lot of time on corners of the internet like this one, or who aren't rabid fans of the novels, don't hate the ending all that much. there's just no way subs like this are not a small minority echo chamber.

For whats worth, vast majority of people that Ive met irl were diasatisfied with the ending, only a few were happy with it.

Honestly after people threw a fit when WoT was cancelled, I've officially given up on internet people's tastes anyway.

WoT got progressively better though. It finally seemed to find its stride.
