Edit: I’ll add that I quite enjoyed the last seasons for what they were while understanding and sharing the disappointment relative to the series as a whole.

Yeah. Execution was actually solid. It was thrilling TV. Jam packed with major meetings, reunions, deaths, fights, endings, was well-scored and next to no filler.
It just didn't match the methodical, slow-burn, web-weaving approach of earlier seasons with all its memorable exchanges. That's what won people over to begin with.
Started off GRRM, ended pretty Hollywood with plenty of pop.
