As I've previously stated, we're getting ever closer to the Season Two premiere of Game of Thrones and if the above trailer is any indication, it looks like Season Two will be taking all the aspects of the first season that we loved to the next level. I've read the novels so I have a good idea where Season Two takes us, and as long as HBO stays the course, I can assure you that Season Two will meet your wildest expectations.

Game of Thrones Season Two kicks off April 1st, 2012.

Running Time: 60 minutes
Release Date: April 2012 (Season 2)
TV Rating: TV-MA for sex & nudity, violence & gore, profanity, alchohol/drugs/smoking and frightening/intense scenes

Creators: David Benioff (series), D. B. Weiss (series), George R. R. Martin (novels)

Game of Thrones is an American medieval fantasy television series created for HBO by David Benioff and D. B. Weiss. Based on author George R. R. Martin's best-selling A Song of Ice and Fire series of fantasy novels, the first of which is called A Game of Thrones, the television series debuted in the U.S. on April 17, 2011. The production is based in Belfast, in Northern Ireland, and has also filmed in Malta, Croatia and Iceland. The show's cast is mainly British and Irish.

Highly anticipated since its early stages of development, the first season of Game of Thrones was very well received by viewers and critics.The series was picked up for a second season on April 19, 2011, two days after its premiere. It was nominated for several awards, including Outstanding Drama Series for the 63rd Primetime Emmy Awards and Best Television Series - Drama at the 69th Golden Globe Awards; Peter Dinklage also won both ceremonies' Best Supporting Actor award (Emmy and Golden Globes). Other accolades include an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Casting for a Drama Series and an Emmy win for Outstanding Main Title Design.

seems like they are doing alot of combigning of the second and third books. Their is so much in these next two books to make four seasons so we'll have to see how they play out. I,m not worried though....The books were epic in their way as the television show does its own tack which i love. cant come soon enough. anyone know when the sixth book is due?
