Looking forward to it. But the break has been so long I can barely recall how it ended other than Jon Snow (maybe) dying.
When does it start? I just renewed Fios and got free HBO. I've watched previously via DVD after the season.[/QUOTET The trailer says April 24th.

Never been more excited
Sansa is with the guy who has easily played the "Game" the best so far. She is likely under his thumb as well.I read that that magazine is supposed to counteract criticisms about the show being an excuse for and arse. "Look at all the strong female characters," blah, blah, blah. Kinda a losing battle.
Watch the last two episodes of each seasonI'm planning to jump into Game of Thrones season 6 having only seen a part of a few episodes to this point and knowledge of the concept + red wedding episode. I don't have the time nor desire to binge-watch beyond say 6hrs of episodes.
So is the best entry binge watching end of last season, reading something, or other (i.e. Watch pilot, then jump to 4-5 other random episodes) ...?
It's a catch-22, if it is so good it should stand alone, yet also if that good deepens appreciation & experience to watch it all. So I think I'm watching pilot & last 2 episodes of last season. Then as season goes along if I like it enough I can go back & watch from A to ZI don't know. I would recommend either watching it all or not watching it all. There are so many storylines and important long term scenes, I can't condone watching the last two eps of each season as a cheat sheet.

Huh? This isn't Seinfeld, the episodes don't and aren't meant to stand alone. That is precisely why it is a good show.
I don't get why people don't just suck it up and watch it all. It's great stuff. Why they chose to wait until a week before the start of this season is weird.Not only that, but just about every scene contains something important, even if it doesn't seem important at the time. There are condensing 1000's of page of books into 70 - 80 hours of TV, that is a tough task, every scene counts.
That isn't to say that you can't enjoy the show by only watching a few episodes each season, but the show isn't being produced that way.
