So, the average length is 72 minutes which is more like a mini-movie. HBO chief, Richard Plepler, described the final season in an interview as “like six movies,” but, he was apparently referring to their cinematic quality and not their length.
However long they are, fans are said to be in for some pretty spectacular scenes in this, the final season of one of televisions' biggest success stories.
