[@thomasmuandersontheneousul4184]

@@SakiBlablabla Well I do a GOT channel now and obviously I won’t lie I want subscribers. So let the shilling begin. So here is my response: Re GRRM the problem is we do NOT have access to the contracts. People forget GOT was a VERY risky show so HBO gave people limited contracts including GRRM. Probably seasons 3-4 - we can only speculate the contracts were about to run out and DD renegotiated as did GRRM. I can only guess but I think that was the critical moment DD had a lot of power but GRRM had some leverage but after the new contracts happened DD took over and made very clear it was their show and GRRM left to do his own thing - we also have proof. We did a script every season but after 4 he stopped. He said he had no time but published quite a lot - books, essays, articles - so the explanation is weak. Maybe he had not time or it was clear post season 5 it was DD-GOT not GOT of the beginning. But again until we see the contracts we can't know for sure. Long story short timing. HBO resigned them in way giving DD enormous power after that if they fired them they would breach contracts and might be liable for tens or hundreds of millions. So they bit the bullet and hoped we wouldn't see the decline in value. HBO hoped the audience was made of fools and wouldn't notice. But we did and here we are.

[@thomasmuandersontheneousul4184]
