It looks as if we will get two more seasons of Game of Thrones. HBO has confirmed that after the delayed and truncated season 7 concludes there will be just one more season to find out who will rule over the seven kingdoms. I gotta say that part of me is glad. The longer GoT goes on, the more chances we have to be severely disappointed. This would be very tragic as so many fans have invested so much time watching, discussing, blogging and re-watching this epic of TV goodness. No matter how things end in Westeros, there is going to be a strong demand for closure here. We have had to witness the demise of so many favorite and hated characters that nothing short of huge bloodshed, betrayal and absolute ruthlessness will do. The end of season six has established some amazing momentum towards the finale and frankly at this point I would love for it arrive sooner rather than later. The one concern is whether two seasons and however many episodes (HBO has not said how many episodes season 8 will feature) is enough to wrap up all of the story lines that are still hanging out there. I will accept nothing but complete and utter closure or I may have to put on some chain-mail and head over to HBO headquarters to get me some answers! The many face god demands answers.
