There’s certainly no danger of this HBO series being cancelled. Game of Thrones has already been renewed through season six and it’s the cable channel’s most popular series. Last season’s ratings were up by about 40%. Will the numbers continue to soar or will they slip? Stay tuned.
Based on the best-selling fantasy book series by George R.R. Martin, Thrones is an epic story of treachery and nobility in a savage world — a place where summers and winters can last for years and the lust for power is eternal.
The large cast includes Peter Dinklage, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Lena Headey, Emilia Clarke, Kit Harington, Aidan Gillen, Natalie Dormer, Stephen Dillane, Liam Cunningham, Carice van Houten, Indira Varma, Alfie Allen, John Bradley-West, Sophie Turner, Maisie Williams, Kristofer Hivju, Hannah Murray, Conleth Hill, Gwendoline Christie, Jerome Flynn, Michiel Huisman, Nathalie Emmanuel, Dean-Charles Chapman, Tom Wlaschiha, Iwan Rheon, Michael McElhatton, Diana Rigg, and Iain Glen.

What do you think? Do you like the Game of Thrones TV series? Are you glad that it’s already been renewed through season six? Should that be the end?
Hopefully there are 8 seasons. Not sure how they can wrap this up in just 2 more seasons without rushing the last 2 bookes.
Love this show, the premium channels are SO worth it!!!
This show is fantastic ! Plenty of characters and a seemingly endless supply of story lines. And there is no need for historical accuracy since it’s total fantasy … keep up the good work, thanks …
We all know that Game of Thrones is very popular with fans everywhere. So when the show gets all those nominations. Then how come it never wins any awards? Can any of you award people out there answer this question? I would like to hear it?
