Of course they should ask for more. I never said they shouldn't. What I'm saying is that the producers shouldn't have given in.

True. You'd think they'd be able to pull the "We can kill any character any time" card on the actors.
On any other show, that'd be just an empty threat. On GOT, it's a very real possibility.

What the? I am old enough to remember when tv shows had like 22 episodes per year. And since I'm getting stuff off my chest-- They are paying these GOT people way too much money. If you could make $20M for 7 episodes of work, what incentive would you ever have after that to do any more work than that? I know! I'm mad as hell at how short the season was Considering how long we have to wait between seasons, they could at least do 10 episodes.

I think you should waite until the last episode of season 8 has aired before you call it unfulfilling. If this season is any basis it will be unfullfilling. Everything feels so rushed that there's hardly any time to care about it before it moves on to the next thing. Great moments sure, but not as drawn in as I've been last season or for the first few. I hope I'm wrong mind you. I agree. The season has had great moments, but we haven't been given time to soak them in before they move on to something else. Very rushed. I do hope it's true that the last season will have 2 hour episodes. It might make up for this shorter season, though I doubt it.

I think I'd rather have 12 one hour episodes than 6 2 hr ones. I work at 430am Monday morning typically so staying up til 10 is a chore let alone 11. Plus all the same reasons about not getting a chance to soak events in.

Do you people ever realise that this nonsense about 2 hour long episodes is just stupid wishful thinking without any other basis?

Not interested in 2 hour episodes. Especially if 1 hour and 15 minutes of those episodes are battles.

I read that the last season is going to be even shorter than this one was, so when I heard about them making the episodes feature length, I thought it better than nothing. This season was so unsatisfying in it's length.

I highly doubt all the episodes will be 2 hours long. If any of them are, it would be the series finale only. Or maybe the "Episode 9", episode 5.
But having them all be 2 hour episodes would go against the whole point of them making a shorter season. (That'd be like 12 normal length episodes)

I think either the contracts need renegotiated or the powers that be just wanted to move on to other things. But aren't HBO the real powers that be? If Dave & Dan or whatever wanted out, couldn't HBO have just replaced them?
