** Game of Thrones season 8 episode 5 spoilers below **
The petition started by Game Of Thrones fans calling for HBO to remake season eight has received more than 540,000 signatures.
Furious fans of the show seriously aren’t impressed by the attempt David Benioff and DB Weiss have made to complete George RR Martin’s incredible tale.
And it seems like the outrage at the pair’s treatment of plot points isn’t just held by a minority of the show’s loyal viewers.
Considering the petition’s original goal was to reach 15,000 signatures, we have a feeling they could easily surpass their current 1million target by the time the final episode airs on Monday 20 May.
The petition was created by Dylan D on Change.org and it calls on HBO to ‘remake Game of Thrones Season 8 with competent writers’.
The plea reads: ‘David Benioff and DB Weiss have proven themselves to be woefully incompetent writers when they have no source material (i.e. the books) to fall back on.
‘This series deserves a final season that makes sense.
‘Subvert my expectations and make it happen, HBO!’
The comments on the petition show support for the motion, with pretty much all of them agreeing that the season eight script needs to be redone.
Perhaps HBO might find it worthwhile to redo the season when George finally finished the final books in his series
Game Of Thrones season eight episode five is currently streaming on NOW TV.
