Game of Thrones: Winter's not coming until 2019 after final season gets delayed

HBO did not specify which month when making the announcement, but confirmed the popular show would return in 2019 for a six-episode final season.

Game of Thrones is HBO's biggest-ever hit, with an army of devoted fans worldwide and some 30 million viewers in the United States alone.

Last August Foxtel said the show pulled in more than 1 million viewers per episode in Australia, but the series is also pirated at record rates.

The final season of the Emmy Award-winning show is expected to reveal which of the warring families in the fictional Seven Kingdoms of Westeros will win the multigenerational struggle for control of the Iron Throne.

First they slash the episode count for the final two seasons from 10 to seven and six respectively, and now they've delayed the final installment for another friggin' year?

Personally, I'm rooting for the Night King.

BTW, we were late to the whole GOT thing and so had to binge-watch them all last month. It was grueling, to say the least.

I still haven’t watched six; I might just wait until 2019 and binge the whole series as I’ll have forgotten everything by then.

I just googled my one-sentence summary of the series and find that my thoughts on the matter are not exactly original:

"The Sopranos with swords and dragons."
