He was asked by the New York Times if he had told the producers what happens in future books Mark Send a noteboard - 05/04/2011 06:01:23 PM
He avoided answering the question.

Q.

Are they privy to information about what’s going to happen in future novels?

A.

We’ve had various meetings where they’ve asked me stuff like that. It’s a little tricky because of course the series is not finished. And the structure is quite unusual. Minor characters in the first book become very major characters three books later on, which is a challenge for any producer, because how do you deal with that in the series? We have many challenges yet to come, assuming the show is successful. But fortunately David and Dan have to solve all those problems, and I don’t. [laughs] I just create the problems for them, and then they have to solve it.

Is it a good idea to start a series Camilla - 04/04/2011 10:02:52 AM 781 Views
No, but do you honestly expect this to be completed? *NM* Ghavrel - 05/04/2011 01:08:57 AM 483 Views
In this case, apparently yes. Werthead - 05/04/2011 05:43:19 PM 1014 Views

I may get cable just to watch this show. I'm so pissed it was only 15 minutes. I should've waited *NM* cristopher lee - 04/04/2011 03:45:34 PM 309 Views
Very good *NM* ironclad - 04/04/2011 04:07:03 PM 308 Views
I don't have tv service, so I'm hoping it's made available online. Looks promising. Zalis - 04/04/2011 04:27:16 PM 686 Views
Pretty impressive Stephen - 04/04/2011 06:06:38 PM 646 Views
But it was only 14 minutes long.....misleading title if you ask me. djwilson300 - 04/04/2011 06:33:09 PM 713 Views
Pretty sweet, and yes, the actors look good. Legolas - 04/04/2011 08:11:32 PM 1046 Views
I'd guess that's the reason for the change. Stephen - 04/04/2011 10:06:56 PM 826 Views
Wasn't "White Walkers" in the books too? A Deathwatch Guard - 05/04/2011 04:03:26 AM 702 Views

IIRC, they're also called Wights. *NM* Japhy - 06/04/2011 06:59:47 AM 334 Views
Wights are the ice-zombies that the Others create imlad - 14/04/2011 01:07:29 PM 765 Views
What are they? *NM* Aeryn - 10/04/2011 05:46:08 PM 314 Views
Do you mean what are White-Walkers? everynametaken - 15/04/2011 05:45:40 AM 764 Views
I think you need to use this opprutunity to give yourself an excuse to reread the novels. Roland00 - 05/04/2011 05:03:01 AM 696 Views
That's a good idea. Darth_Katie - 05/04/2011 01:30:00 PM 670 Views

2 beheadings in 15 minutes? AWESOME! *NM* Fox and Ravens - 04/04/2011 10:42:33 PM 328 Views
That's what I said! Darth_Katie - 05/04/2011 01:44:12 PM 780 Views
Didn't they find the Dire wolves in the first chapter of the book... Japhy - 06/04/2011 04:39:25 PM 784 Views
They'll probably show up soon enough. Legolas - 06/04/2011 07:44:16 PM 780 Views
Nope, they're after the execution A Deathwatch Guard - 06/04/2011 07:56:33 PM 670 Views
Pretty cool but was Greyjoy missing at the beheading? everynametaken - 09/04/2011 10:36:47 PM 781 Views
maybe that's the minor character Werthead mentions not being in the first season Jim - 10/04/2011 03:44:39 PM 652 Views
Theon is the one that hands Ice to Ned just before the execution imlad - 14/04/2011 01:13:19 PM 683 Views
I thought I saw him... the guy looking with interest as the Starks look away? *NM* Legolas - 10/04/2011 03:55:46 PM 296 Views
Yep, I think that's him ironclad - 11/04/2011 07:33:25 PM 692 Views
