I won't comment on this season, but really want to talk with you once you see it!
I'll likely subscribe to HBO Now this week. I have come perilously close to seeing/reading more than I wanted to know.
I was really hoping that the author would be motivated to write the last book before now. I understand the creative process and not always being able to produce something on the fans timetable, but selling the story to HBO opened GRRM up to all the criticism he has received from book fans. < Just my opinion.
