Game of Thrones Season 6 Spoilers: Filmmakers Proud Saying The Newest Installment Is The Best They've Done

The Game of Thrones has been a massive TV series hit. The previous seasons were packed with action-filled scenes, bloody swordfights, epic battles, a whole lot of naked bruises, and decapitated heads rolling over. With the bar of expectation high, there's just a lot of pressure to keep fans locked in.

As everyone awaits the return of Game of Thrones to our TV screens, showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss promises the show's diehard audience that the next season is 'the best one yet'.

"This season there is not a weak episode. We had great directors who knew what they were doing, paired with excellent [directors of photography]. We thought at the script stage it might be our strongest season. Then the episodes came in better than we hoped. We're always reluctant to say it's 'the best season yet' because so much of that is in the eyes of the beholder...But that's my sense - watching them all together now, this is the best one we've done. It's also the one I'm proudest of, because it was the hardest," remarked Benioff as quoted by Entertainment Weekly.

If season six delivers it promise, then it will be a feat of accomplishment with all its towering achievements in the past. As we've seen in the previous seasons, the series just seems to elevate the craziness with each new episode. As Benioff said, it's the hardest they made so far. Also, writer-producer Bryan Cogman validates Benioff's earlier statement saying that season six 'definitely the biggest [action sequence yet]'. Are we expecting a battle on an epic level?

"We've always wanted to get to a place - story-wise and budget-wise and time-wise and resource-wise - where we would be able to do a proper battle, with one army on one side, one army on another side," said Cogman as quoted in a report by the Collider.

Although 'the best one yet' is a typical hyperbolic statement that most showrunners would say, viewers probably think there's a truth to what Benioff is saying. After all, the Game of Thrones has an average rating of 91 out 100 on Metacritic every season according to a report by Independent.
