I am so torn over this.
It can't come soon enough, but at the same time I don't want it to because then it will all be over.
Plan is to binge it all again - and not for the first time - just before this starts.
Watch the final series.
And then probably cry.
@⭐️janerosity⭐️ I like to wait for all the episodes of the new season to be listed the binge them. My husband didn't even get into this show until last year. I binged all season's with him to get him caught up for last season. He loves it of coarse!
You know what I'm worried about in the next season is[SPOILER]
@Teeny💋 Same thing with my husband. He was a late comer to the show, too. I remember when he got to the end of Season 2 (with the mass of Wights on the move) he turned to me and said "I can't believe you've tricked me into watching a bloody Zombie show" LOL
@Teeny💋 I can usually wait about three episodes but then I give in. I have noticed that GOT seems to be one series where people are fairly respectful about posting spoilers on Facebook etc, but I have a feeling as this is the last series - so bound to be loads happening each episode - this may not be the case this time round. So as this is one show I absolutely do not want spoiled I may have to watch it as it airs. My Son has not watched it at all, constantly rips it out of me and two of his best friends who are obsessed, but I am trying to persuade him to watch my next binge with me. And then I, and his friends, can laugh when he becomes obsessed as well.
@⭐️janerosity⭐️ And yes, I cried too. But I have a funny feeling that particular turn of events may yet work out in her favour.
@⭐️janerosity⭐️ I am glad I wasn't the only one. I told my husband I am going to close my eyes this time around if it looks like that is going to happen again.
@⭐️janerosity⭐️ I am sure he would love it as everyone else. I myself didn't even start watching until season 5. I am one of those people who won't watch something just bc everyone else in the world is. But when I really started getting onto 2movies on a daily basis I started it and loved it. My husband does get mad and say thanks for getting me hooked on another one of your shows. But GOT is a show to be shared, if you don't have anyone to talk to about the episodes it will drive you crazy.
@Teeny💋 It was series four for me, for that same reason and as from what I heard it did not sound like the sort of thing I usually like. How wrong was I.
@⭐️janerosity⭐️ I will share a box of tissues with you then as I am just as excited and sad about the final season.
There is so much to one season plus so well done that it is re-watchable...
I was a late GOT viewer and I so I made a plan to have a Winter binge-fest with my hubby before the next and final season since he has yet to watch a single episode and I finally convinced him :D
I feel you 100%
Perhaps a GoT themed party? I know who I am going to be for Halloween this year! ;)

There are 2 great Youtube channels I like to watch during the agonising wait between Seasons!
Kevin GT - He does some great Rewind videos showing characters from their first scene through to their last - plus some fan-theories and more...

Daemon Blackfyre 2.0 - Also does some The Fate Of videos, following characters from start to finish. There are also some fab Odd Couple videos - The Hound & Ayra, Ayra and Tywin, Jamie & Brienne etc.

@DemandingFemale Yeah, that's exactly how I've been getting my fix too. lol
It's been/is a long wait this time.
@michael59 Don't you think you can get a much greater understanding of the characters when you watch all their scenes in one sitting?
I then binge watch the entire show again...
Lather - Rise - Repeat lol
@DemandingFemale Yes, I do think that because GoT has so many plots/story lines that you just can't take it all in in one sitting. So I really enjoy the setups they have available on youtube.
I have also been watching some so called leaked theories about season 8. I'm not like most people. Spoilers don't bother me. Besides, I'm old, by the time the show is out, I'll have forgotten what I heard. They say the mind is the first thing to go. lol
@michael59 I don't like to overthink future episodes too much. I don't even watch trailers or clips for other shows. I even gave up reading the books after the show first aired as I didn't want to get too far ahead. Glad I didn't too, The Red Wedding was a thrill to watch.
God
The last season was apparently the most that has ever been spent on any series EVER. And it showed. My gosh the CGI was flawless and they combined it with some amazing animatronics.
I love the books, too. I don't care about the differences because they are both so outstanding.
I cannot wait for the spin off which is a prequel series based on George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire book series.
Probably won't be till 2020, but personally, it gives me something to LIVE for. haha
@ I had not read the books, but as I had heard they are different I decided I would wait until it was over. Then last year one of the kids at work left a copy of the first one and I decided I would read that when I do sleep-shifts. Not much of a difference, but I had to stop reading when I realised that Jon Snow (who I fancy the pants off - and, lets not forget, also have seen naked and doing the 'deed') is FOURTEEN in the books. I felt dirty... lol

Comparing a book to a movie is like comparing a video of someone eating a piece of fresh baked, hot apple pie with vanilla ice cream on the side to actually sitting down with the real thing and savoring every yummy delicious bite. GOT as a series is pretty good though.
