But one crucial reunion was missing – that of Jon and Ghost!
Seriously, where is Ghost?!
Dear @HBO and @GameOfThrones,
Last night’s #GameofThrones season 8 premiere was fantastic, but I feel I speak for most of the fandom when I ask: WHERE IS GHOST? Sorry for the all caps.
Love,
me
I rewatched the season premiere of #GamefThrones last night and decided to take some notes on the episode I’d thought I’d share #Whereisghost
And yet! One episode of six has come and gone and there is STILL NO GHOST.
WHERE is he? Where IS he? Where is HE? WHERE. IS. GGGGHHHHOOOOSSSSTTTT!?! @GameOfThrones #whereisghost
Don’t get me wrong, it was really cool to finally see Jon ride a dragon just before he learned of his Targaryen heritage. But not having Ghost in the same episode is just frankly insulting.
ghost in the shadows where the writers placed him watching jon ignore him and go for a dragon ride instead
Ghost is as important to Jon as Dany’s dragons are to her. But here’s Jon, riding a dragon, and not even mentioning Ghost?!
You know what would have been nice? If Jon actually introduced Dany to Ghost.
But I would have settled with any scene with Ghost in it, to be honest. Even if he was in the background.
I mean, the Season 8 premiere was full of callbacks to the past – especially to Season 1, Episode 1. You know, the episode where Jon finds Ghost. Why couldn’t they include a nod to this?!
HBO
I get that it’s really expensive to include the direwolves. But if you can afford a five minute dragon ride through the mountains for funsies, you can include one of the most important characters in Jon Snow’s life.
HBO
You can’t just build up a character – and tie that character to the very identity of one of the main characters of the show – and then just conveniently forget they exist.
HBO
To be honest, I’m very concerned Ghost will only show up just in time to be killed off.
GHOST DESERVES BETTER.
HBO
Justice for our boy!
Here’s hoping Ghost and Jon get a good moment in Episode 2. Otherwise WE RIOT.
