The winning tweets of 'Game of Thrones' finale

The final episode has left the audience divided - and rightfully so

After eight seasons and 73 episodes, HBO’s long-running smash series, Game of Thrones, wrapped up on Sunday, with one more shocking demise and an unlikely character named as king.

The last episode of the medieval fantasy based on the novels of George R R Martin ran roughly an hour and 20 minutes to conclude the storyline of more than a dozen characters and intertwining plots.



The fierce competition for the fictional Iron Throne - the seat for the show’s ruler, made of hundreds of swords - ended with a death and an unexpected choice to rule the fictional kingdom of Westeros.

The final episode had the audience divided - and rightfully so. Here's Twitter's absolute best:
