True Detective Season 3 Finale podcast and Game of Thrones season 8 hot takes

True detective season 3 finale - podcast 

The one eyed man wanted to be “killed or taken to jail” but wasn’t. 

The ending was happy for Julie - and that was the plot twist. 1) it was surprising 2) it was pretty unsatisfying- does that make us “jerks” 

Did they ever really talk about what happened to Hays’ wife, Amelia Reardon?

Julie did get a happy ending - but pretty much nobody else did. 

Season 1 characters were deliberately mentioned shown by the crime reporter.  This excites me in the sense that with these worlds connected, perhaps we’ll get a season 4 and those characters could somehow be involved again. 

Game of Thrones predictions- GRRM has two books that are unfinished, “the winds of winter” and “a hope for spring”

Based off of those alone - my prediction is a dark season in which almost all of the characters we care about are killed (likely by the Night’s King/ Army of the Dead/ White Walkers). 

I think Dany having 2 dragons and the fact that she’s likely going to have a child with her nephew Aka Jon Snow are the two biggest factors for “an eventual hope for spring”. 

I think we see a glimpse of whatever that hope is at the very end... but I think Westeros goes to the nights king north of the Neck. 

The best worst case scenario - Dany has the ability to defend dragon stone - but all of Westeros goes “zombie”. 

Nothing good will happen for the living until Cersei is dead - also burn Cersei- cuz she def shouldn’t get to come back as a white walker. 

Will Cersei and Kyburn make some deal w the  night king? 

Will Bran be a force for good or is he the Nights King?
