HBO RENEWS GAME OF THRONES FOR SECOND SEASON<\/p>\n

LOS ANGELES, April 19, 2011 \u2013 Following strong critical and viewer response to the series\u2019 April 17 debut, HBO has renewed GAME OF THRONES for a second season, it was announced today by Michael Lombardo, president, HBO Programming.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are delighted by the way David Benioff and D.B. Weiss have brought George R.R. Martin\u2019s amazing book series to the screen, and thrilled by the support of the media and our viewers,\u201d said Lombardo. \u201cThis is the continuation of an exciting creative partnership.\u201d<\/p>\n

The gross audience for the premiere night of GAME OF THRONES on the main HBO channel was 4.2 million viewers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’m currently reading A Clash of Kings<\/strong> right now, and I’m scratching my head wondering how the hell they’re going to fit that book (which is much larger in scope, cast and plot than A Game of Thrones<\/strong> into 10 episodes. Perhaps, if Game of Thrones<\/strong> is a success, we’ll see the season expanded somewhat? Personally, I can’t wait to see that<\/em> scene between Theon and Asha. So awkward in the book and so much potential on the screen. Also, Davos. Yes.<\/p>\n

I think the obvious question, however, is when will we see season six and seven. Right? *instant rimshot*<\/p>\n
