I don't remember for sure. Originally they were doing one season per book, but I believe season three ended before they did all of book three. I think they tried to slow down a bit to give time for book 6 to come out, but before long it was obvious that wasn't going to happen.

I finished book 5 7 years ago so my memory isn't clear, I think it ended with Jon Snow being "killed" in a revolt or battle at the Wall.

Actually, I won't mind this if they keep with the extended length episodes. I believe the last one was 1.5 hours long, I'm not sure about the previous 2. But with ep.3 it felt even longer due to the flat pacing and drawn out slo-mo panning scenes.

I'm hoping there's more to the White Walkers and Night King, and that they don't just end it on dealing with Cersei (or being dealt by Cersei??).

Totally agree. I couldn’t wait to watch episode 3 and was a little disappointed that episode 2 was a talkie. I’m less excited for episode 4. I just never saw Cersei as a real threat. I have no emotional investment in $ellswords. This show has a way of bobbing when I think it will weave.

What I will always love about GoT is the lack of feeing safe. Anything could happen at anytime.

Episodes 1 and 2 were both about an hour and are supposed to be the shortest of the season. Episode 3 was billed as the longest episode, so the final 3 should fall in between somewhere and all be over an hour. As far as 10 episode seasons, last season was only 7 episodes... so season 6 was the last 10 episode season.
