A lot of people shit on the final season, and rightly so. The ending didn't fit the entire narrative of Ice and Fire, Arya's training was basically useless, Daenerys's ending didn't make sense

I'm yet to hear of how anyone would rewrite the final season to be good, or where the plot points are all resolved. You would need to change a LOT, particularly how you conclude with the final battle AFTER Kings Landing is taken/won. There's a few novel ideas there:

Bran warging into a dragon
The Night King ignoring the North and going to war with Kings Landing
Arya using her skills at some point to attack/kill Cersei
Jamie's redemption, and possible pairing with Brienne, to leave Cersei alone and unhinged. Perhaps even Jamie killing Cersei?
The Night King being such a credible threat that he actually takes over Westeros and the final battle being waged in Essos, or with the full "world" involved
Jon ascending to the throne, as prophesied - but leaving the throne and escaping north
Westeros just generally being destroyed and no one winning. " The dragons siding with Jon, leading to Daenerys's madness
Bran slowly turning into the new Night King

So many avenues, but I'm yet to read a coherent plan.

I think the big thing is the Night King should have stayed in the Far North, and there should have been a counteroffensive to push into his territory and kill him there as the battle keeps raging in the south. A full on war, with the White Walkers being a seemingly impossible enemy to overcome, with the only glimmer of hope being the army in the north slowly approaching the Night King's stronghold to cut off the threat at its source.

A bit like Frodo et al.
