Like Jon Snow, while we know little to nothing about the wherefores and whys of Game of Thrones season 8, we at least sort of know a when now: The final season of the HBO series will premiere in April [date not mentioned] 2019, according to a tweet sent out by the network this morning.
Otherwise, we don’t know anything about the season, as HBO and all involved have been tight-lipped on the details. A sound designer for the show did mention that each of the remaining six episodes will skew more toward 80 minutes instead of the series’ standard 60-minute episodes, but take that with a grain of salt.
We still have time to rewatch the previous GOT episodes prior to April, courtesy of HBO, HBO Go, HBO Now, and the various channel add-ons on services like Hulu.
