Yes, its a good sign that everyone I know who watches it is now really looking forward to next season, which is not something you could have said this time last year.

Winter is here!
That could throw a Valarian spanner into the works.

Re: Game of Thrones
 

In the wake of the Game of Thrones season six finale, creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss are talking about the upcoming seventh season and how close they are to mapping out the series’ end. As they have previously done, the duo cited a total episode count of 73 episodes, telling Deadline, “Call it 73 for now.” That is, it sounds like HBO will give them the wiggle room they need to properly wrap up the hit fantasy drama.

The pair also addressed the upcoming seventh season, specifically mentioning Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey); what Benjen (Joseph Mawle) told Bran Stark (Isaac Hempstead-Wright), before he took his leave; as well as Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) and Jon Snow (Kit Harington).


A Q&A with David Benioff and Dan Weiss if you are interested. It is very interesting.

"It’s summertime, but winter is almost here. HBO has announced production on the seventh season of its Game of Thrones TV show will begin later this summer. The seven episodes of Game of Thrones, season seven, will be filmed in Northern Ireland, Spain, and Iceland. The show is slated to premiere later than usual in 2017. While GoT typically premieres in April, expect the seventh season to debut in summer."

Only 7 episodes?

Re: Game of Thrones
 

Yep, and probably only 6 for the final season.

Re: Game of Thrones
 

how stupid. For the last 6 years they have been saying that they would love to be able to make more episodes but they physically didn't have the time but now they are making a conscious effort to cut the season down. Everyone at work was moaning a couple of weeks ago that you just feel like you are getting in to it (with 10 eps) and then it finishes and now it is going to be even worse. There must be so much material they can expand on and I am sure George R R Martin can give them a few points for another 3 eps. I can't believe HBO is letting them get away because of the $$$ in lost revenue.

Re: Game of Thrones
 

My understanding is that you'll be getting 2 seasons of 7 episodes, versus 1 season of 10 episodes, so overall you'll be 4 episodes better off.

Re: Game of Thrones
 

:rolleyes: not really, i want two seasons of ten episodes. Presumably the next season is going to be about kahleesi coming back and taking over and the last season is going to be about the White Walkers. I am sure they can find ten episodes of stuff for each of those stories.

Its actually 7 for this year (Season 7) and 6 next year (Season 8) so 13 in total.

However, I would not be surprised if the final episode were a bit longer than usual.

Can't wait.:hyper::hyper::hyper:

Re: Game of Thrones
 

Looking good.

Re: Game of Thrones
 

The question is how many more series will we get.?

Re: Game of Thrones
 

seasons or series? There are two seasons left including this one of GoT but I read somewhere last week that there are currently scripts in active development for 5 spinoff series.
