I've never watched GOT, but believe it's to blame for the current fashion of owning beautiful husky dogs. So many round here, in the middle of town, with owners who can't control them. They're so strong, need to be pulling sledges in Alaska instead of nearly pulling down the feeble owners who have them on leashes. Poor creatures, I've read that rescue centres are full of them.
Not having seen it yet I'm dreading watching series 8 because I know I'm going to see many much loved characters die. But it's still the best thing I've ever watched. As is often the case when something has been so good the ending is often a disappointment. jeanie99; we must have a chat about it when we've both watched it. I agree about the popularity of huskies but that isn't the fault of the programme makers, really. And I cried buckets when Nymeria' returned' in the last series. When I get the dvd in December I shall be binge watching it!
