    News HBO Boss Talks 'Game of Thrones' Spinoff Plans, Confirms Season 8 Will Be Its Last!

    Listen up, Game of Thrones fans! We've got the latest news on the fate of your favorite Westeros residents.

    HBO's President of Programming, Casey Bloys, has officially confirmed that season eight of Game of Thrones will be its last.

    "[GoT executive producers Dan Weiss and David Benioff] have a very specific plan about the number of seasons they want to do," Bloys explained on Saturday to a room full of reporters at the summer Television Critics Association press tour. "Believe me, being the new guy, if I could get them to do more, I would take 10 more seasons. I take their lead on what they think they can do the best version of the show."

    "We've talked about it. It's something I'm not opposed to, but of course, it has to make sense creatively," Bloys said.

    "I'm not sure that the guys can wrap their heads around when they're just about to start production -- it's a pretty intense production -- but I'm open to it," he continued. "The guys weren't opposed to it, but there are no concrete plans or anything like that at this point."

    We don't know about you, but we're currently praying to the old gods and the new that some version of Game of Thrones continues to stay our screens for many more years.

    Good. I want them to be able to end it the way they want to end it instead of just carrying on forever then getting canceled and leaving most of the loose ends uncovered.

          Glad its ending after 8 years. Curious what kind of idea they can come up with for a spin-off. Not a huge fan of those, but if they can execute like Vince Gilliam did with Better Call Saul, that would be great.

              I was thinking about Saul as well. Great spin off

                Lots of characters they could spin off, or do a whole new story arc from one of the many past 'Ages', like the 1st appearance of the white walkers thousands of years before and the building of the Wall.
