Transcript
Man: So, did you see the final episode last night?
Woman: Of course! As if I would miss that!
Man: And?
Woman: It was by far the best episode, definitely.
Man: Yeah, totally. The dragon at the end and all the special effects in that final scene were amazing.
Woman: I loved that part! But I still don't think this series was as good as the others.
Man: Really? But you said you wouldn't want to miss it?
Woman: I know, but still … it's a lot more predictable than it used to be.
Man: But that's because the story has been told so well that all the characters are reaching their destiny now.
Woman: I don't know … before, anyone could die at any time so it was exciting! But, this series, no key characters died and we all knew they wouldn't. When Jaime fell in the water after the dragon attacked him, we knew he would make it somehow. And … oh, surprise, Bronn jumps in and saves him.
Man: They did kill some characters in this series, though. What was that one's name …?
Woman: Exactly, see! You can't even remember who died!
Man: Hmm. The only thing I didn't like about this series was that it was shorter than the others. Seven episodes instead of ten. Maybe they spent all their money on that dragon!
Woman: Right! I don't understand why they did it, as all the fans would happily watch ten episodes.
Man: I reckon that now they're not using the story in the books any more, they don't have as many ideas.
Woman: That would explain why they're not being as brave with the story too. It's more like a Hollywood film than a TV show now.
Man: So, is Tyrion still your favourite character?
Woman: You know … surprisingly, I think my favourite might be Cersei.
Man: What?!
Woman: She's so interesting! All the awful things she's done and the way she's just aiming for revenge, even though it won't make her happy. She still surprises us because we're expecting her to have a happy ending where she sees her mistakes and becomes a good person. But she never does, no matter what it costs her. She's unpredictable because we just can't believe anyone would be like her.
Man: I guess. You don't have to like a character for them to be your favourite!
What series do you think this chat is about? What's your favourite TV show and why?
I think they're talking about Game of Thrones (I've never seen this TV show, but I've heard a bit about it). I don't have a favorite TV show, but one TV show I enjoyed a lot recently was The Summer I Turned Pretty, I don't know, I just found the story interesting. Another show that I like is the classic fall show Gilmore Girls, but I can't stand the Logan's character, so I only rewatch the first few seasons.
My favourite series of all time is "Twinkling Watermelon" which is a Famous Korean Series. It is Romantic Comedy Series and with a touch of the supernatural. The Son in the series time travels back to his father's teenage Life. He tries to change his family's future life and learns the truth about his parents' disabilities. That was really heart warming and good story line. I could watch that series again and again.
This audio they talking about were Game of thrones because he's talk about the dragon and many people dies is obviosly, but now my favorite tv serie is The end of the fuc***g world, this serie is so good, their scenes, color, drama and story, you can watch this series on netflix.
The s series aabout Game of thrones abbreviated with GOT, well a actually my favorite series is the umberlla academy because it is full of dramtic and unpredictable.
I thought the series is Game of throne.It's a great series for me.I still remember Jhon Snow and mother of dragon.This series is one of my favourit seires.I wish I would like to watch same like this series.
I don't know about what serie they are talking about. Since they mention a dragon I suppose it's a fantasy serie. I am not a fantasy of fantasy series and this may be why I am not familiar with it.
I don't have a favourite TV show. I usually enjoy British or American thriller movies or series.
I DON'T KNOW..... THE Series is really confused for me. I don't understand about their conversation. I REALLY DON'T HAVE A favorite series I usually looking different movies or series of different genres
My favorite show is Skam Italia because it addresses many interesting topics that, unfortunately, are frequent in our times. I really like the main characters of season 3. Edoardo and Eleonora."
