Its two more seasons were talking about. From pretty close to the beginning, we talked about doing this in 70-75 hours, and thats what well end up with. Call it 73 for now. What Dan says is really true, but its not just trying not to outstay your welcome. Were trying to tell one cohesive story with a beginning, middle and end. As Dan said, weve known the end for quite some time and were hurtling towards it. Those last images from the show that aired last night showed that. Daenerys is finally coming back to Westeros; Jon Snow is king of the North and Cersei is sitting on the Iron Throne. And we know the Night King is up there, waiting for all of them. The pieces are on the board now. Some of the pieces have been removed from the board and we are heading toward the end game. The thing that has excited us from the beginning, back to the way we pitched it to HBO is, its not supposed to be an ongoing show, where every season its trying to figure out new story lines. We wanted it to be one giant story, without padding it out to add an extra 10 hours, or because people are still watching it. We wanted to something where, if people watched it end to end, it would make sense as one continuous story. Were definitely heading into the end game now.
