The Lady Stoneheart reveal is great and all, but she has like two scenes in the books. This show never does flashbacks but watching how she came about would make for some great scenes, and a fantastic opener to a new season.
Last I heard, Season 5 will consist of A Feast for Crows and half of A Dance of Dragons, meaning they think there are two seasons worth of material in what has been published. Which has some interesting character progression but not particularly exciting in terms of drama or entertainment that I think can translate easily to two season's worth of shows.
Most of the characters we are currently following just don't have enough material to last two seasons. A couple characters are just nearly, if not completely, caught up to the end of DoD already.
Tyrion and the myriad of characters he meets and intersecting storylines are certainly two seasons worth. Some particular Iron-born characters will require a great deal of screen time. I predict Arya's story to be stretched out to the point of boredom without the assistance of new scenes, which will surely happen.
Every other character (mostly Dany, Jon, and Jamie) cannot possibly be dragged on for two entire seasons unless the show focuses more on new characters, brand new scenes that never happen in the books- likely with sex and dragons, or progressing beyond DoD.
Which means: the show, at some point, will spoil the books. Retribution for those who don't read.
Winter is coming.
That parody was pretty awful.
Is anybody else still watching the series?
in every episode. I think her time serving the Faceless God could be drawn out with some more shorter sequences to illustrate the depth of her work there.The exception is the pitiful Dorne sequences which come across like old Star Trek episodes...the sand vipers could be painted green and the action perpetrated by Captain Kirk.
