This is it people. We're up to episode 3 of 6 for season 8. At the halfway mark (we only get 6 episodes for the final season). And if you don't think there will be massive deaths come THIS SUNDAY, I have bad new for you. After two episodes that have been a slow simmer to the boil that we'll be at this weekend, you can expect massive destruction and chaos as the white walkers have finally reached Winterfell.

This weeks episode also clocks in at a whopping 82 minutes so again, prepare for the poop to hit the fan so to speak.

How long will each episode be?

While the eighth season will only have six episodes, some of them willbe much longer than the one-hour slot they’ve filled in previous seasons. The first couple of episodes, however, have been disappointingly short:

  • Episode 1: 54 minutes
  • Episode 2: 58 minutes
  • Episode 3: 82 minutes
  • Episode 4: 78 minutes
  • Episode 5: 79 minutes
  • Episode 6: 79 minutes

Also arriving this week just prior to episode 3, how about some music to go along with all the impending death, destruction, and doom. You know. To make it all easier to swallow. Bad news is always better with a beat right?
