Honestly in my recent rewatch I thought that was one of the best seasons of a TV show I had ever seen. They did a great job of building up to an amazing pay off that happens in the last two episodes with the Battle of the Bastards and Cersi's revenge.

I can see why there was so much hype going into Seasons 7 & 8, and they definitely fumbled the ball at the goal line.

Yeah. I don't really understand why so many people seem to extend their justified anger about the last two season to S5+6 as well.

Yes, both seasons start to show some cracks, but they are not a big step down from the first 4 in my opinion. They also deliver a lot on the build up from previous seasons which to me almost makes up for some of the areas that were not as great.
