‘Game of Thrones’ critics can ‘Go F*ck Themselves’, says Kit Harington/Jon Snow
Kit Harington, also known as Jon Snow in the blockbuster series, Game of Thrones, has said the TV show’s critics can go f**k themselves.
Harington made it very, very clear that he is extremely not here for any unnecessarily negative takes that may surface in the next several weeks.
When asked about the eighth and final season, Harington told the magazine he feels “quite defiant” about the show.
“I think no matter what anyone thinks about this season — and I don’t mean to sound mean about critics here — but whatever critic spends half an hour writing about this season and makes their negative judgement on it, in my head they can go fuck themselves,” he told Esquire.
“Because I know how much work was put into this. I know how much people cared about this. I know how much pressure people put on themselves and I know how many sleepless nights working or otherwise people had on this show.
“Because they cared about it so much. Because they cared about the characters. Because they cared about the story. Because they cared about not letting people down.
“Now if people feel let down by it, I don’t give a f**k. That’s how I feel — because everyone tried their hardest.
“That’s how I feel. In the end, no one’s bigger fans of the show than we are, and we’re kind of doing it for ourselves. That’s all we could do, really. And I was just happy we got to the end.”
Game of Thrones just returned for its eighth and final season this week, with the premiere episode garnering largely positive reviews. Even so, Harington isn’t interested in what the recappers of the world have to say.
