How Game of Thrones Let Down Theon Greyjoy

It's been almost five years since Game of Thrones put out its stunningly awful finale. Fans have often said that one of the few characters not ruined by the abysmal writing of the last few seasons was Theon Greyjoy. I wholly reject this notion. While he may not have gone through a full-on assassination like some of the others, they seemingly "kinda forgot" to put effort into actually rapping up any of his plot threads properly. Which I guess could be said for most, if not all, of the other characters.

Ugh, that GOT ending was so disappointing! The Agent Cody Banks 2: Destination London ending was fire 🔥

I am beyond impressed that years later, people *still* find new obviously wrong things about the last season. That's some olympic levels of dedication to lazy writing on D&D's part.

Good video. He really was wasted in S6 and especially 7. Sansa actually convincing him going to castle black (instead of him going to the Iron islands for some reason???) would have been far more interesting, and if you don't want him to Join in the fight against Ramsay then you could have him leave via eastwatch sometime before the battle, due to his fear of Ramsay, and gets caught up in the Dragonstone bs later.
Honestly I always thought him killing the Night King would have been far more interesting than anyone else, as his story in S6/7 can easily be altered to make it fit better, and it would actually act as a resolution to his story. (Unlike with Arya, where it adds nothing to her story.)
