This is Day #18 of 30 Days of Television Challenge
Most shocking season or series ending or WTF/OMG ending.

6 Things I Still Can't Get Over Regarding the Game of Thrones Ending, a Year Later
Why Game of Thrones Had the Worste Ending of All Time
Controversial Reactions to Game of Thrones - apparently those who binged liked it better
9 Reasons why the Game of Thones Ending Didn't Work
I can't find a positive review...but I'll see...
Ah found one..well, sort of...A Positive Review of Game of Thrones
The gist? Game of Thrones had a shocking and jarring ending for most people who'd read the books and watched the series. So shocking people signed a petition to get the ending re-done. (Which I personally found sort of silly and insane. I mean seriously, do people have any idea how expensive that season was?)
Some liked it. I happen to personally know of at least 20 people who loved the ending. I know because we debated it and then decided to agree to disagree. I don't agree with them - but we also wanted separate things from the series and perceive things differently. Things that bothered me, didn't bother them. That said? I wasn't furious or anything. It's just a television series. But I did warn my mother off - she liked Dany, Jamie, and Tyrion, and the dragons. She was not a fan of Jon Snow, Sansa, or Bran.
But it did shock most people and annoy them.

So true. Also just from the responses to this post - there were people that loved the ending.
The petition amused me though. I can't remember fans actually putting together a petition to get a new ending to a television series before Game of Thrones. It may have happened - but I don't remember it.
Also it's not like other television shows had ...ahem, controversial endings.
