Regardless of your opinion about the final season of Game of Thrones (and let’s face it, you have one), it’s tough to let go of a show you’ve loved for so long.
So don’t!
Fortunately, the cast shared some fascinating behind-the-scenes photos that will help you remember the good times.
Here’s one Gemma Whelan (Yara Greyjoy) took of the cast:

Who is that new make-up chap? Why it’s Kit Harington, aka Jon Snow, the show’s hero. Who apparently took up make-up between scenes. One clever commenter summed up the picture brilliantly:

Gwendoline Christie (Brienne of Tarth) posted this Instagram pic, highlighting what she learned from playing Brienne.

“Playing Brienne of Tarth has redefined the way I look at the world, women and particularly myself,” wrote Christie. “My heart aches with how much I will miss Ser Brienne of Tarth.”
Ugh, my heart is aching. Long live Ser Brienne!
Some characters from the past also showed up for the final season. Robin Arryn (played by Lino Facioli) returned, for example, and posted pics:

Fans couldn’t get enough of his transformation, naturally.

And, finally, no round-up of behind-the-scenes photos would be complete without this pic from Sophie Turner (Sansa Stark):

Although there’s been a lot of talk about Turner’s vaping, honestly, I’m here for Maisie Williams’ bomb sunglasses.
Well, I’m off to cry now. At least until the prequels come out.
