Much as I love Game of Thrones I've weirdly become annoyed at all the hype, excitement and the fact that everyone loves it.

Having not read the books it is amazing how much hype the show does get. Id love to know the behind the scenes story about these sorts of shows and what sort of concerted publicity campaign is put into place to generate it, must be fascinating.

How come there's only 10 episodes per season?  Why don't they milk it with 15 episodes or more?

We've already been told by the book readers that the show has left out big chunks of the story and several characters.

Pssst! Don't give them any ideas. It's one of those rare shows that doesn't drag shit out.

As for the fans, I don't think the series is that popular in America (season 1 had about 2.5 million viewers per episode; season 2 had almost 4 million), but the main audience is in Europe. It doesn't have a wide fanbase, but those who love the show are really dedicated.

that is not exactly accurate. Those per episode numbers are based on only the original airdate viewers which means little on a channel like HBO that replays the episode a dozen times during the week so people have different times to view it not to mention HBO on demand where you can watch it anytime you want.

I'm not sure I can last 9 more series as is rumoured

1st April in UK

When for USA? Or do Europe get first?

Ah, so my theory isn't valid. Could you get some totals of viewers per episode?

that is the problem it would be hard to do since they dont meter the ratings on showings outside of Sunday night. For example the season premiere last year had 6.3 million viewers on Sunday night; how many more dvr'd it, watched the next showing on Monday night, or plan to watch it on Friday night on HBO on demand? It is impossible to figure out like a regular TV show that only airs once per week.

keep in mind that Game of Thrones was also the most pirated show of 2012.

As for why they dont get more episodes, for one HBO wants to make sure quality is top notch, which means that they would have to increase the budget of the show from ~$60M to ~$90M for the season..

a bit too much, as they probably wouldn't be able to increase the DVD price by the same amount to compensate.

along with that, the writers already kill themselves writing and filming the 10 episodes for the year, I think they said in an interview that they would not be able to handle more anyway.

Side note: For season 3, each episode is roughly 4-5minutes longer so we essentially get an extra episode when its added up for all 10.

Book readers will always complain about certain things that were left out, but I'd rather watch Game of Thrones the way it is adapted now than watch The Hobbit (300 pages to 9 hours of video compared to the 1k pages to 9 hours of video for GoT)

I'm considering just waiting for all of the 10 episodes to air and do a GoT marathon on my summer break :-P

Does anyone know of a live HD stream? I know there are hundreds of average, ~200 kb/s ones, but I would like to watch it in decent quality.


Else I'm just going to wait an extra hour and watch the scene release.

It is very funny to me , to see a post of someone that is in a search for hd stream of tv show just because its hard to wait 1 extra hour fro the scene release. :lol:

It might be funny to you, since you do nothing but sit on your ass the entire day. Some of us have things to do, and won't be back till later in the evening. So yeah, smartass, I don't want to wait 12-16 hours to see it.

Take a nice cup of shut the fuck up if you have no intention of helping.

I am sorry if you got offended but its still funny. We all have things to do and jobs n shit. And you don't have to call me smartass or telling me to shout the fuck up...

My advice is before you start doing anything go fix you manors. And if you did t use that kind of language i might help you but now be cool &  wait.
