Can not wait for it.  Sadly coming to an end, but what a phenomenal series it has been.   Some of the cast here with some memories. Pretty cool watch

There has been 67 episodes so far, most have been an hour.  This season I believe they will run about an hour and a half or more per episode.  you can catch up before the second episode if you power through it.

This final season is six episodes of 54, 58, 82, 78, 80 and 80 minutes.

It's going to be sad to see it end.  I feel bad for anyone that's refused to watch it because it's "not my thing," or "sick of hearing about so not watching," or any other reason.  Any hold-out friends I've lent my box sets to have burned through it and jumped on board.  It IS that good!

My sister is like that. She said she watched a few parts here and there and couldn't get into it. Now she refuses to watch it. I told her it's not the kind of story you can "drop in" on and expect to know what's going on.

I've never been able to watch a show "live."  So I'm planning to wait until the season's almost over, try to avoid spoilers and binge watch them all before the finale and watch that one live with everyone else. I have a feeling what happens in the finale is going to be the biggest thing on TV since "Who Shot JR?"

I ignored the show completely up until all the fuss over Sansa and a sex scene.  It was an all day radio talker on how shocking it was.  Even on KFAN.  I felt like the only person on the planet that had no clue what the hell GOT was.  Curiosity got the better of me and I started off with season 1, episode 1.  It wasn't until Ned's bad day that I realized just how different this show was and was probably going to be.  From there on out, it's been one shock twist after another and one hell of a ride.  I haven't bought the set yet, but it will be going in the collection when everything is said and done.

I started 1st week of March. Just got to season 6. I really flew through 1-4. Season 5 slowed me way down. I'm at S6 E3 now.

It would be hard not to hear anything about the first five. The last one would be damn near impossible.   So watching that one live is a must.

It's actually not as hard as you might think. I've done it the last several seasons. I just avoid threads like this and things I see on twitter, etc. I don't really have a devoted GOT water-cooler network at work or anything. Though I do have to admit that one of my millennial co-workers likes to give me a hard time about my preference for old-school communication: "Should I put that in a DM or send a raven?"

Almost didn't open this thread because I'm only on season 7 now. Didn't want any spoilers. This show is addictive you guys were right. Compelling and angering all in one. Spoilers hell! I needed spoilers to get past season 5. Sought out the Oracle of WiFi to get me through. What a show...wow.
