Listen, making TV is hard! Long hours, tight schedules, sometimes less than ideal filming conditions…it’s a lot to handle, which is why mistakes that feel super how-did-they-miss-that do happen.

And that was just one of several gaffes the HBO fantasy hit made during its eight-season run. Forget winter, memes were always coming when it came to their mistakes.
