    Well, if they just stick to adapting the books (and to my knowledge the story is finished) I’m OK with it. With GoT the problem was mostly when the source material was over, till then they did a good job adapting the story.

        GRRM has probably written and rewritten The Winds of Winter a dozen times at this point. I bet the word count is higher than everything he wrote for the rest of the series combined, if you count everything written and deleted.

        Honestly, with his process we’re lucky we saw A Dance of Dragons at all.

      The problem with GoT is the same as with all productions where they constantly escalate with very little character building. There’s nowhere to go, so inevitably when they do try and tie all things together there’s nothing of substance and it’s just a huge letdown.
