165. Thank you. Some of the criticism is that the show did not explain her turn.

Really? Since she landed in Westeros:

1. Her Dornish and Iron born fleets were ambushed and key allies were imprisoned and killed.
2. She supported that Suicide mission beyond the Wall, and lost one of her dragons in the process.
3. She brought her armies and her remaining dragons North to fight the Night King, but she was met with resistance and cold shoulders.
4. She lost her longest serving confidant Jorah Mormont during the battle of Winterfell.
5. Upon returning to Dragonstone, she loses another dragon.
6. She witnesses her other long serving confidant get be-headed in front of her.
7. Now, she has to deal with someone else having a claim on the throne and treason among her aides.

She's isolated, betrayed, and suffered great losses. She's in a quagmire, and she loses it. They set this up brilliantly, but people are upset because they wanted her to be a hero in the way heroes of other stories are. They wanted her to take all of these setbacks and personal affronts and just shrug them off?
