The biggest non-Jon-Snow-related question on everyone’s minds right now concerns the longevity of Game of Thrones. Showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss want to wrap things up in the next couple of seasons. HBO President Michael Lombardo would rather go at least six more years (which is network exec code for “let’s keep it on life support indefinitely”). There may be a happy medium that pleases both parties though: a George R.R. Martin-approved spinoff series. For Benioff and Weiss, a spinoff keeps the Game of Thrones brand alive while not jeopardizing the main storyline by dragging it out.
