Here we are. After 10 years, eight seasons, and 71 episodes, the record-breaking, worldwide phenomenon that was Game of Thrones came to an end last night with its final episode, “The Iron Throne.”
Fans had a LOT of thoughts about the show’s final hour, and about the fates of the characters who they’d invested a decade of their lives following. Check out some of the best Twitter reacts to last night’s biggest moments. If it wasn’t obvious, spoilers ahead!
Jon Killing Daenerys
If Daenerys hadn’t met Jon Snow she’d still have her friends, her dragons and mainly she’d still be alive. Focus on your career and not in lesser men, ladies.

TYRION: People love stories. And no one has a better story than Bran

my sister & i were talking about the #GameOfThrones finale & she made a great point – Sansa’s hair has always mimicked people she’s learning from or inspired by. but now, Queen of the North in her own right, she wears it down. simple, unadorned & free to write her own story 😭😭 pic.twitter.com/4mogfP6NpO

Sansa really accomplished in two sentences what Robb and Jon couldn’t do with two wars

Hey Jon you’re in the Night’s Watch again sorry bro the Dothraki and Unsullied weren’t cool with it thanks for all your hard work it just didn’t pan out.

#GameOfThronesFinale Yeah Let’s send Jon Snow to the Night’s Watch to protect us from the white walkers he ALREADY defeated…or the Wildings he ALREADY made peace with pic.twitter.com/jy0iSGXQyu
