It’s been nearly a year since HBO’s monumentally popular series Game of Thrones ended its eighth and final season. But time and space away from the show have apparently not helped cool GoT alum Emilia Clarke‘s mixed feelings about how the show resolved itself.Instead, Clarke, who played lead character Daenerys Targaryen for all eight seasons, is now ready to open up about the series finale which aired back in May 2019. At the time, the series finale was not well-received by fans after sitting through an already shaky final season.Clarke also admitted she was sad Dany didn’t get a “happy ending” and shared the she thought the final season of Game of Thrones might have been more satisfying if it had lasted more than six episodes: “We could have spun it out for a little longer.”Complaints of mishandling Dany’s character, making her do things that felt out of character, or betraying what the show had portrayed her to be by so casually offing her with the biggest backstab in recent TV history were lobbed at Benioff and Weiss after the finale aired.
