However, despite the lukewarm reception of its divisive final season, Game of Thrones still continues to be one of the best TV shows of the last decade. After debuting in 2011, the series concluded in 2019, with a six-episode final season that drew heavy criticism from critics and fans, who felt that the truncated seventh and eighth seasons – shortened, some say, so as to allow showrunners to move on to their next project – upended the years of meticulous planning and character development that went into the first six seasons. Game of Thrones follows the fate of powerful families in the continents of Westeros and Essos who are vying for the ultimate seat of power – the Iron Throne.
