HBO renews GoT for 2 more seasons!

So this should come as no surprise that Game of Thrones, perhaps the most popular show on television, has been renewed for seasons 5 and 6.

Being HBO's flagship show, it would be unintelligent and ignorant to cancel it at its peak. Hence no one is surprised. Yet we still rejoice. A 2 season renewal is rare and this is definitely great news in terms of how safe this saga will be in the future.

Being based off George R. R. Martin's books to which there is currently 5, the TV show truly has enough resources to continue the show true to the author for a few more years.

Yet what happens if George R. R. Martin dies before he finishes the books?
It's a touchy subject and though all fans have a major respect for the man, there is a feeling that the books will never be finished, and that the show will overtake the original stories.

Martin has almost finished the second last book and so fans have that to look forward to yet there is still that feeling of uneasiness.

Have no fear though, the showrunners know the true ending to GoT and so we will get the definitive ending eventually, be it from TV or the books.
