Read our privacy policy Peter Dinklage has reflected upon the frosty reception to the final season of Game of Thrones – and said he thinks he knows why fans weren't satisfied. The actor, who played Tyrion Lannister in all eight seasons of the hit HBO show, stood by showrunners David Benioff and DB Weiss by calling the final season "extraordinary". The backlash to the final season saw the launch of a Reddit campaign to get Benioff and Weiss's picture top of the search engine if you type in “bad writers”.
