I think its probably an uncontroversial thing to say that I didn't like last season as much as previous seasons. Is there any indication from the showrunners that they are aware of some of the flaws of last year and that the show could be super good again? that would be rad.

There are more indications that they intend to double down on their gently caress ups.

They tripled or quadrupled the size of their Spain crew so either they want to make sure nobody steals five months of footage and kidnaps the screenwriters at the last second, leaving them five hours to whip up whatever bullshit the Dorne arc was, or they're planning to bring Dany's, Tyrion's and Bran's stories to the level of excellence we grew accustomed to with the Sand Snakes.

Alternatively, they saw the problem of having all the good fight coordinators be devoted to the north and Hardhome last season, and don't want a repeat of da bad pussaay.

here's a goat on a pig or something
Were multiple episodes really leaked? Some news articles online say only the premier, and even then there doesn't appear to be any torrenting or streaming sites that have even the first episode. Obviously not asking for links, just discussing.

I just want to smile. Just once. I'd like to just, one time, go to Disney World and smile like the other boys and girls.
How does the scoring in that work? Do you get points for someone not appearing in an episode? Can't think of any other reason why you'd draft Rickon

Right, but do I just need to start mashing F5 at 8:59, or will there be some kind of pre-load stream box thingy?

"Yes. New episodes of original programming and theatrical films are available on HBO NOW when they premiere on HBO. Live programming and some other programs have a delay on HBO NOW (as with HBO GO), but are added as quickly as possible."

I have for two years in a row now watched it on hbo go simultaneous to the RL airing (in fact if you're feeling bold you can skip ahead past the ads and Previously Ons and finish the episode before tv-watchers).
