Yeah, my experience is similar to that drawing. I got sucked in hook line and sinker for seasons one through three, and as the Two IdiotsTM (I can't even say their names) influenced the story-telling more and more, I lost the magic more and more. In my view, it went from almost a psychological thriller set in medieval times to a Marvel movie. Even though the transition started much earlier, the metaphorical jumping of the shark for me was the battle in Season 7 where Bronn - remember, he's a sellsword who just wants his gold, his woman, and his castle, and he sold out everyone, including his best friend to that point, Tyrion, to get it - leaped to the side like he had springs in his boots and his horse had rockets to save Jaime from the dragonfire. You can always tell when a "creative" team is tapped for ideas when they grasp for the tired, trite, done-to-death-by-better-people "redemption" trope. I watched the rest, out of obligation, but that to me was the point that it was only about the actors and their (almost universally) wonderful protrayal of the characters that George R.R. Martin lovingly created and the Two IdiotsTM treated like gum on their shoe.
