Yeah, I don't see the prequel option happening either. Mike's suggestion sounds more likely, a wider time gap between each seasons.. although that can really only buy so much time. Is HBO willing to go a whole year without airing any episodes?
That's the question. Does HBO want to go a whole year without their most profitable show. GoT is a juggy right now. Everybody is talking about it and buying merchandise. It might lose a lot of steam if it sits out a year. With Boardwalk Empire ending and a few of their other shows drawing towards a conclusion, I'm not sure they can afford to do that.

I finally watched season 3 this past weekend. Now I'm excited about season 4. I'm most curious about Jamie and his story.
I watched the season 4 trailer and realized the actor playing Jamie is from Norway. His English in the show is really good but in the S4 preview and stuff I've seen on Youtube, his accent is apparent. It must've taken hours of rehearsing those lines to get it down perfectly. As someone whose first language isn't English, I can respect that. Getting rid of an accent is hard work.
I just read the EW article about the upcoming season and it was dangerously close to spoiling certain things. For example:

If the rest of the season can live up to the premeire then it should be a great season. There was a lot of good symbolism (wolf pelt/sheath on the fire, blue rose), dialogue (Tyrion/Oberyn, Jon/Alliser/Janos, Jaime/everyone), comedy ("I grew up in King's Landing." ), and action. Arya and Sansa felt closer to their book versions and the new characters seem pretty awesome even though they made the Thenns cannibals. The only things I didn't like were the Brienne/Margaery (where was Loras?), Dany/Daario, and Tyrion/Shae interactions.
Arya was SO badass this episode!
Is Daario a different actor this year?
Edit: It looks like he is at least according to IMDB.
2013 played by actor Ed Skrein.
2014 played by actor Michiel Huisman
Yes. It probably confused a lot of people too. They don't look, sound, or act the same.
That's the only thing that was off in the whole episode, i preferred the old actor, had a bit more charisma!
Everything else though, was great!
Glad I popped in on this thread; I was wondering who the hell that character was.
I still don't know why they didn't give Daario blue hair. It would be way easier for the audience to tell the difference. This version of Daario looks like so many other characters on the show.
If you don't want to give Daario the blue, forked beard, that's fine, but I don't see why they couldn't dye his hair.

bunch of Aholes!!! give him a long hair wig at least this new guy in no way at ALL reminds me of the character he is supposed to be. HBO effed this up hugely!!!
I'm not going to kill the producers of the show. For the most part, they've done an amazing job with this show. Especially in the set and casting departments. I would just love an explanation. It just doesn't make any sense. If there's a logical explanation, I would defer to them. I just can't think of one.

I've read the books but not recently. Sometimes it's nice that I'm slowly losing my memory (of the books) when watching this show. Fun times.
FINALLY a death I could cheer and clap for!!!!
It was perfect. Literally exactly how I pictured it in my mind. Right down to the perspective and angle of all the action. Not to mention the tone.
