What Is The Best Game Of Thrones Season
The Game of Thrones Season That Still Makes Us Scream (and Laugh, and Cry)
Okay, let's be real. Picking the "best" season of Game of Thrones is like trying to choose your favorite puppy from a litter of golden retrievers. They're all adorable (or, in GoT's case, epically dramatic), but some just stand out a little more.
We're skipping the serious film critic hat today. We're here for the feels, the gasps, and the moments that made us spill our wine all over the couch.
Season 1: The One Where We Didn't Know What Was Coming
Remember Season 1? Ah, innocence. We were all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, thinking Ned Stark was the hero who was gonna save the day.
Must Read
Then BAM! Head goes flying. It's like the show punched us in the gut and said, "Welcome to Westeros, buttercup."
It's that initial shock that makes Season 1 so memorable. Plus, baby dragons! Who doesn't love baby dragons?
Season 3: The Red Wedding of Horrors
Oh boy, Season 3. The season that scarred us all. The Red Wedding. Just saying the words sends shivers down our spines.
Honestly, it was a masterful piece of television, even if it did make us want to throw our TVs out the window. It showed us that literally no one was safe.
And who can forget Daenerys getting her Unsullied army? "Dracarys" indeed!
Season 4: Trial by Combat!
Season 4 was a rollercoaster of emotions, from Joffrey's delightfully awful wedding (finally!) to Tyrion's epic trial.
Oberyn Martell, the Red Viper, entered the arena with bravado. His fight with the Mountain was brutal and ended horribly, shocking everyone.
This season had some serious payoff moments and heartbreaking losses.
Season 6: The Battle of the Bastards
Season 6 brought us the iconic Battle of the Bastards. Jon Snow vs. Ramsay Bolton? It was muddy, bloody, and absolutely captivating.
Jon getting nearly trampled, Sansa arriving just in time with the Knights of the Vale... it was pure cinematic adrenaline. Plus, Ramsay got what was coming to him.
Daenerys unleashing her dragons on the slavers was also a sight to behold. Talk about girl power!
Season 7: When Dany Met Jon (and Rode a Dragon!)
Season 7 brought us the long-awaited meeting of Daenerys and Jon. The chemistry! The tension! The obvious romantic foreshadowing!
Jon also got to pet and RIDE a DRAGON! The White Walkers finally breaking through the Wall was terrifyingly awesome.
So, Which Season Wins?
Ultimately, the "best" season is subjective. Do you prefer political intrigue? Go with Season 1 or 4.
Want pure adrenaline and shocking twists? Season 3 or 6 might be your jam. Want dragons and budding romances? Season 7 is calling your name.
No matter which season you choose, one thing's for sure: Game of Thrones gave us some seriously unforgettable television. And that's something we can all agree on (probably!).
