What do you think would be the worst way to end the show ?
To me the worst way would be having Cersei be sitting on the Iron Throne when the show is over.

If you think this has a happy ending… I don`t i think that it will be a happy ending, i think that the ending will be either tragic or bitter sweet. A happy ending to this show would make no sense at all.

The very predictable ending where Cersei dies, Dany sits on the throne, Jaime becomes a 100% good guy & joins Jon and the White Walkers are killed Phantom Menace style and everyone lives happily ever after. It would feel very out of tone with the rest of the show, way too happy and clichéd. The show needs a bittersweet and unexpected ending. And considering that GRR Martin has told the creators the broad lines of the story's ending I don't expect this to be the actual ending. But if the real ending is very simar to my post that would really suck.
Edit: I understand that Cersei will probably die and the White Walkers will lose and I'm fine with that. I just don't want it to happen in the clichéd way like I described with Dany happily on the throne and the White Walkers dying Phantom Menace style.

I do expect Cersei and the White Walkers dead by the end though, with lots of casualties for the "good guys".

GRRM has openly said that his ending will be bitter-sweet. But that is not like LOTR but unlike LOTR. He believed LOTR's ending was sweet. If you recall a vast majority of central characters survived in LOTR. Boromir was the only major one who died and even he was depicted as someone with doubts and greed. GRRM's books may see death of some of the main characters.
According to GRRM the main characters are: Jon, Dany, Arya, Tyrion and Sansa.
I hope they kill Jon, Dany and Arya. That will make the show (and books) memorable.

Hmmm....I guess if they leave too much still on the table I’ll be disappointed. But so long as it makes sense I’d be fine with everything from the White Walkers winning to predictable good guy ending. There’s be varying degrees of joy there but I’d swallow most pills. I’d just want clarity and resolution for most storylines.

LOTR ending is bittersweet. Obviously it doesn't end in a massacre but if you look at it, Frodo destroys the ring and Men are united under Aragorn's kingdom but the characters are changed by the experience and things are never the same again. The Shire is burned and eventually, the Frodo has to leave his friends to go the Undying Lands. But this was confirmed by GRR Martin himself: observer.com/2015/08/george-r-r-martins-ending-for-game-of-thrones-will-not-be-as-brutal-as-you-think/So I'm expecting something like the White Walkers are defeated and peace is restored to Westeros but it won't end with Dany and Jon sitting on the throne with Tyrion has their hand and everyone leaves happily ever after. I see Arya and Sansa surviving though...

I see Arya and Sansa surviving though... Thanks for that quote. Yeah, there was a bit of regret that Frodo left the middle-earth and also left Sam. But sam being with his kids and wife was the sweet part. Also Arwen sacrificed her eternal life could be seen as somewhat bitter. I believe GRRM's ending will be slightly more towards bitter side than sweet side.

The Night's Watch can't stop them. The Kings of Westeros and all their armies can't stop them". For some reason, no one ever remembers this in spite of Jojen's sight having proven itself. Most viewers seem to think that throwing armies of fools at certain death is going to bring a solution. It won't and all the idiots who blame Cersei for not joining the general stupidity are just that. The whole thing is meant to be a re-enacting of the mass murder of the 1st world war written by a pacifist, including announcing "the Great War", which was a common name for the 1914-18 conflict. Ignorants worldwide don't know this, and won't see it after it's done. Even that simple message is wasted on them. I expect Bran to solve the whole thing, through some pointless trickery, then men will be left to pick up the pieces and lament their own foolishness, especially that which gave the Night King a freezing dragon.

She might not live a very happy life but will probably be a good ruler who cares for people.

I wouldn't like that too. But that is very plausible.
That said Jon was resurrected from death for a purpose. So it would be good if he dies again if his purpose is fulfilled.

Some of the worst possible endings: The ambitious woman who saved slaves only to make them her soldiers and brought savages to the land she calls home wins together with the man who gave the enemy the possibility to bring the Wall down and cause the peril they fought together. This is a variant of the story of the fireman who set fire so he could be seen as a hero for extinguishing it. After spending multiple seasons showing the damages of personal rule, the consequences of struggles based on the idea of birthright and the nefarious effects of extreme religious beliefs, this is most probably not what the authors ever set out to do. I suppose this is what the most naive want to see. Down with kings, nobility, the rich and everything that does not submit to egalitarian weakness. "Power to the people", as if the people ever knew how to make use of it, as if the "elected" were not in full control of the limited amount of options they let the dumb choose from, as if it really made a difference. Such an ending would be the authors telling the world they know how stupid it is and the world thanking them for it.
Sadly, this is not as impossible an option as the previous two.
