Well shit... I guess you're right. Ten episodes is the new norm for seasons on HBO. For some reason I thought there were only 9 this season. My mistake. I blame it on the fact that for this past month I've been recovering from major surgery. Have been on lots of pain meds due to some complications.

Ok, so one more thing about seasons on HBO. You watched Rome, right? Season one had 12 episodes. That was the norm back then with all HBO series. Season two only had 10 because the show was cancelled and they had to wrap it up as best they could. It sucked the way they rushed it, although I get why - that show was very expensive to produce (amazing show btw, they did a great job except for how they ended it).

And look at True Blood, another example of being cheated a little by HBO. Seasons one through five had 12 episodes. Season six they started chopping it down to 10. Honestly, I don't care much about True Blood since I stopped being a fan a long time ago, but it's a good example of what I'm talking about.

I pay out the ass for my cable so it just irritates me when they pull this shit. They get me all addicted to their shows and then cut back on what they deliver. Twelve episode Game of Thrones would have been fabulous!

That's all, I'm done crying about it now. Lol.
