There is a lot that bothers me. But I’ll just mention one thing:

Viewers saw Cersei and Jaime in the basement of the Red Keep. We saw the building fall in on them. They are dead. We know this. I see no possibility that they will somehow show up in the final episode.

However —

No characters in the show knew that they were in the basement of the Red Keep. No one in the show saw them die. No one in the show knows what happened to Cersei and Jaime.

In any logical story telling, the characters in the show would wonder what happened to them. Did they escape? Are they in Pentos? Will they return?

But it seems clear that no characters in the show will lose any sleep over this. They are both dead. The viewers saw them die, and so the characters in the show know that they are dead.

That’s sloppy story telling.

I thought they handled the verification of Jaimie and Cercesi’s deaths nicely with Tyrion removing pieces of rubble in the cellars of the castle and seeing the two dead bodies lying side by side.
