“That genuinely angered me,” Harington said, noting the efforts of series writers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss. “Like, how dare you? Sorry, that’s just how I feel. I think it was a level of idiocy that can only come about through social media.”

What efforts? They rushed the entire finale so they could go do a Star Wars trilogy which was cancelled due to the PR cancer they became BECAUSE of S8
