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!
I think they were taking about Tv show called Game of Thrones, I've already watched it before it was very interesting to watch, on the other hand, My favourite TV show is Breaking Bad, Walter White's transformation was next level, he started from nothing just sick and broke teacher and by the end, he was the most danger man in the game, the way he took down big mafiosos like Gustavo and others showed how powerful he became
They are talking about the TV show Game of Thrones. I have seen this TV show, but I couldn't finish watching it because it had too many seasons. I would like to rewatch it because I remember it was very interesting and exciting. On the other hand, my favorite TV show is Drake and Josh. It is about two stepbrothers who learn to live together after their parents get married. I like this show because it is very funny, and I really enjoy watching how Megan, Drake's little sister, bothers Drake and Josh.
I've watched this great TV Show which is called The Game of Thrones (THE GOT). I don't know any other tv Show that would keep me feeling excited such a long time.
My favourite TV show is Kara Sevda it is a Turkish show,it is really very exciting show and in every episode there are new events,and surprisingly the final and the end of the show was unpredictable for us.
My favourite TV show called "The Game", it is an egyotian series, consist of 4 parts. each part includes 30 episodes
i like this series because every episode has a new idea, and competitive, and also it is a comnedy show, so you will be very exciting and laughing when you are watching this series,
actually, i saw this series about 5 times or more
they are talking about show Game of thrones and think the woman have reason about cersei, but my favourite character is Arya, she killed the night king, and she has her own episodes i really love her
Tyrion is a man, not woman.
Hello Vase,
I think the people in the recording know Tyion is a man. When they talk about 'she' in the last part they are talking about Cersei. Generally, pronouns refer back to the last individual mentioned, which in this case is Cersei.

What series do you think this chat is about? What's your favorite TV show and why?
I think this chat is about Game of Thrones, because they talk about dragons, battles, and characters like Jaime and Cersei. And my favorite TV show is Friends, because it’s very funny, and the characters feel like real friends.
I haven't seen this TV series but I think they are talking about Games of Throne (because of the dragon)
My favorite TV series is True Detective, I saw it many years ago so I don't remember the story precisely but I remember the atmosphere, the characters and the music.
Then I like that every year there is a new story and therefore it is not too long (only 7 or eight episodes for season).
