Last year there were three units....I wonder if they will simplify and go back to two this year. Focus on the North and the South (assuming we likely won't see much of Essos here on out)...

I know filming was going to be delayed and all, but wow - January is pretty late for filming, no? Usually aren't they well into post production by then? My guess is they'll film from September to February this year. With an early June premiere or something.

That would probably make them ineligible for the Emmy's and I doubt they would want to miss that.

Good point, Al - they wouldn't qualify under the hanging episodes rule (which is how they've qualified in previous years). Cut off is May 31st, so majority of episodes would have to air before that. They'll want to get in at least 4 to 5 in May to make sure to qaulify.
Per Emmy rules:
"Hanging Episodes for series eligibility: If an ongoing series has enough episodes in the current eligibility year to qualify as a series and has one or more episodes that are part of the series season that fall into the subsequent eligibility year, the “hanging episodes” that are in a contiguous rollout on the same distribution platform join in eligibility the already-qualified-as-eligible episodes of the series, as long as the hanging episodes air prior to the return of the first round ballots. For example, a comedy series that regularly airs on a weekly basis that has six episodes in the 2013 eligibility year and has two more episodes of its series season airing subsequently and on the same platform in the 2014 eligibility year would enter all eight episodes in 2013 eligibility. On the other hand, a comedy series that has two episodes in the 2013 eligibility year and six more episodes airing subsequently on the same platform in the 2014 eligibility year would enter the eight episodes only in 2014. They would not be allowed to “sneak” the six episodes, e.g., post them on the internet or air them in an obscure time spot, in order to qualify the series in 2013."

That would probably make them ineligible for the Emmy's and I doubt they would want to miss that. Personally I don't think they'll make the Emmy cutoff. I mean, they would have to air 5 episodes before May 31st, which means they would have to premiere in late April or very early May, similar to this year. I don't see that happening. They can still be eligible for the 2018 emmys though.

They can still be eligible for the 2018 emmys though. They would have to premiere on May 7 given the 7 episode season, which would still work. I'm just not sure HBO wants GoT to be their summer show, but I guess you're right they would still be eligible for the next year.

If they win big again this year at the Emmy's, I guarantee you they will make the cut off. HBO won't let them miss it. it's all about money and ratings, and the Emmys definitely affect those decisions, especially for the cable networks.

The show is proven big, maybe they don't really need/care about Emmy wins after last season and probably this season's sweeps? HBO knows they have a winner already and has pumped tons of money into it (and gotten huge returns). I think the show writers have been very determined to do the story on their own terms from beginning to end. I am more supportive of them doing it right than doing it rushed.

With only two seasons left, it doesn't bother me at all right now. I'd almost rather wait for that.
And damn it George, give us Winds before S7.
