Game of Thrones is a month away from its season six premiere on HBO, and fans could see the best season yet of the series. That comes from the men in charge of the series.

Entertainment Weekly shared the latest from David Benioff and Dan Weiss, and they are proud of the next ten episodes of the HBO series.

Benioff said the following:

“Dan and I talk about this a lot. This is not us trying to hype it. Usually there’s an episode or two we’re kind of nervous about, that didn’t turn out as well as we hoped. This season there is not a weak episode. We had great directors who knew what they were doing, paired with excellent [directors of photography]. We thought at the script stage it might be our strongest season. Then the episodes came in better than we hoped. We’re always reluctant to say it’s ‘the best season yet’ because so much of that is in the eyes of the beholder. And Dan and I are so close to it that it’s impossible to be unbiased. But that’s my sense – watching them all together now, this is the best one we’ve done. It’s also the one I’m proudest of, because it was the hardest.”

Game of Thrones will premiere season six on April 24. Are you excited to see the new season? Tell us what you think.
