4 more. This season is 7 episodes. I believe next season is only 6. ETA: Confirmed with IMDB - next season is only 6. OMG I thought it was 8 next season. 😑 Sorry to be the bearer of horrible terrible news! The episodes are each supposed to be longer, but yea...super short season to wrap up the series.

The podcast I listen to about GoT is firmly in these camps: 1. The army will not walk around the Wall on a frozen sea. Stop. 2. That was Wun-Wun with the army of the dead. What podcast do you like? I think I need a GoT podcast in my playlist.

I do a Cast of Kings. I like Joanna because she's en pointe and think David is ...wrong a lot. Haha.
Joanna does two GoT podcasts: this one and Storm of Spoilers. The original idea had been one without book spoilers (Cast of Kings) and one with (Storm of Spoilers). That's a bit outdated now that we've mostly moved beyond the books, but I'm not sure if they're introducing rumors in SoS.

Joanna and David also do a Twin Peaks podcast and a Westworld podcast. Joanna is a writer for Vanity Fair.

I thought a wight was a resurrected person?
I mean we have undead people walking around here more than the white walkers, I think that means something.
No. A wight is only someone who has been resurrected by a White Walker. So Beric and Jon don't come under that title. Per GOT wiki: A wight is a reanimated corpse, either human or animal, raised from death by the White Walkers to act as their minions. Wights are often referred to collectively as the army of the dead, or simply as the dead. Ok not matter what they are called, I think this is going to be a big deal with the battle was my point. You have undead people walking around here.

Beric is surrounded by the undead at some point this season and the blade of his sword goes up in flames. I believe Tormund is there. Is this in a trailer? Did you have a dream?

GRRM confirmed that Beric is a wight animated by fire and that his heart does not beat. Maybe wiki has not been updated by anyone. This would imply the same for Jon Snow.
GRRM could be talking about a book thing and maybe the show won't go into this.
It was a recent Time interview.

Yes, but it wouldn't be GOT without classifications of the dead, right? 😂 WHITE WALKERS WHIGHT is reanimated by a White Walker and make us the army of the undead Benjen is UNDEAD, but not a wight because he wasn't touched by a white walker Jon and that other guy with the patch....is that Beric? are RESURRECTED.

Jon is with them too I believe so I'm curious what's going to happen that they'll get back North so soon. There's only 3 episodes left? 4 more. This season is 7 episodes. I believe next season is only 6. ETA: Confirmed with IMDB - next season is only 6. Let's not talk about it. 😢

Can I just complain that in a world of technology, my DVR can't seem to figure out when an episode is 65 minutes vs 60? So right before Elenna bites the dust, end of the recording. Way to go u-verse.

I haven't had any problem with this, and I have U-verse. It might be in some deeper setting where you tell it to be special if the episodes run long. But also if you have HBO already, you should get HBO Go for free, right? Sign up for that pronto because it's way better than the On Demand bullshit.

Thanks to the hourly airings I only had to wait about 10 mins to catch up. But hello frustration.

Thoughts on Ep. 3:
1. That meeting was intense, guys. 2. I was disappointed so, so much. Just so much. Tyrion tried and it failed so hard. 3. I hope to be Olenna Tyrell when I grow up.
Did I already post today? I feel like I said all of this but it might have been in a text to my sister lol. Site was being crazy earlier.

So now that Bran, like, knows everything that ever happened, and he happens to be back in Winterfell along with a very sketchy and treacherous Littlefinger.....I am wondering how that will play out.

Arya knows LF betrayed Ned and Arya knows the stuff about that dagger the catspaw. Her promo pics have been with her in Stark attire and with that dagger so...LF either gives it to her or she takes it by force. Either way I think LF is dead this year.

There was also a shot of the dagger in the trailer!!! Totally with you, I think he is going down.

Bluebird and others looking for a podcast....I listen to Game of Thrones the podcast (a bald move podcast). They are long but they really dive into a scene by scene break down. And I love it. They have it weekly and then an additional weekly spoiler one where they discuss theories from the books and fans. I commute about an hour each way so I thoroughly enjoy their podcast. They were number 1 on iTunes the first week. Based on their opinions... They do not think that was Wun wun. And they do not think the army of the dead will walk around the wall. They also think Gendry is not coming back. Because who cares... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Littlefinger instigated sooooo much of this. He keeps the ball rolling by doing more things. I don't think he'll be killed at Winterfell this season - I think he has a bigger part to play still.

I have no idea tgrimes there are so many loose ends to tie up. GRRM/HBO legit has everyone all over the map. And there isn't a lot of time to get things to come to a close. I feel like they need to either bring him back and get him into the story line soon; or drop him. I don't want him coming in the last episode with some claims to the throne or a magical army or some crap. I want the ending to make sense. I also think little finger has a larger role to play. He will end up dead, but he is THE instigator. I think he's got one more major play and the someone offs him. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What if Littlefinger wins?
Will we all pull a Fred Savage from The Princess Bride?
"You mean he wins?! Jesus, Grandpa, what did you read me this for?!"

For podcasts, I LOVE Binge Mode. Someone here recommended it. It's two of the people who did the after show last year (mother of dragons and the maester). I listened to all 60 episodes before the season started and I learned a lot as a non-book reader. Plus they are hilarious and have great chemistry.
I'm trying to listen to some of the others mentioned but they're not hooking me the same way.
