They're now saying that because of his schedule of other projects, all of which he has been putting in front of finishing The Winds of Winter, it is now most likely WoW won't be coming out until 2017. It was originally supposed to come out late next year but that obviously isn't going to happen but even worse he's adding still more projects to his list; in addition to his restored classic movie theater which is taking up much of his time he's also signed a deal to do a second unrelated TV series for HBO, plus the man has a nearly endless list on non-SoIaF books which he has agreed to write or co-write or edit. Oh, and he's still not certain if two books will be enough to wrap the series up and he's hinting that he might need a third. At his current pace of writing that will mean some where between 15 and 21 years to finish the series and I do have to wonder if an obese guy in his mid 60's can realistically expect to live into his mid 80's and still be in good enough shape to write top notch work.

That entire article is crap, made up stuff and nonsense, just stuffed together to create an article.

I like how South Park had a Game of Thrones themed episode about Black Friday sales at the mall. Winter is Coming, *****es.

There is also a new GoTs video game coming out which is good because the first game kind of sucked.

Tonight's conclusion will end with Princess Kenny being held aloft by a cheering throng. Book it.

[Dinner]

The Night's Watch are mall cops trying to keep the town safe from itself. Oh, and I like how they ended part 1 with Princess Kenny's rat sitting on his shoulder screaming like Daenery's newly hatched dragon!

The best scene from season 2. The battle of Blackwater Bay.

Caught up with the hype. It's pretty good, but also a bit overrated. Rome (pretty comparable to me) generally had superior acting, tighter writing and was more sophisticated. However enjoyable all the nudity may be, it's hard to pay proper attention to the actresses' lines when you're just waiting for them to get naked or at least get a glimpse of their nipples. The child actors and actresses are remarkable though and especially Maisie Williams (Arya) is a delight. Nice to see Cairàn Hinds (Mancer) again and hopefully plenty more of him in season 4.

Rome was awesome. It stinks that Rome and Carnivale got only two seasons, and Deadwood three, while crap like True Blood lasts forever.

Blame the market .

True Blood is the highest rated show HBO has ever had aside from the Sopranos & Game of Thrones.

[regexcellent]

I thought it was higher than GoT?

[Imran Siddiqui]

GoT's Season 3 passed True Blood's highest season, IIRC.
