They're beyond the books and the story lines are going to fork more drastically this year. I read an interview with GRRM a while back, when they were writing this season he said something to the effect that starting this season they are going to be different story lines because of the minor changes they made in earlier seasons.
SpoilerOne of the big ones is that lady stark was resurrected by the red priest after the red wedding in the books, but was not in the show. In the books there is a pretty big confrontation between lady stark and the lady she asked to protect the girls, lady stark ends up having her hanged. Sansa hadn't married Peter or the psycho, and hadn't made it back to Winterfell.
It will be interesting to see what happens with the diverged stories. I'm hoping Bran makes it back and is the badass I think he should be.

I haven't gotten that far in the books yet, but are you talking about Brienne?
Woah woah ... did you get to the end of a Dance with Dragons? Your spoiler is off. It is known.
I honestly don't remember how far I got. I remember reading the confrontation, and the outcome was very murky but it appeared that she had died.
Yeah, I don't blame her. On her watch Brenly died, Kat died, and she left her post waiting for the candle from Sansa. I heard that the first season is the only one to follow the book. Then it gets crazy.Yes. That her name. I always forget her name.

This will be interesting. Has there ever been a series that out-ran it's own source material? Not changed it but actually surpassed it like this?I seriously can't wait to see where things go this season. Getting into uncharted territory now!
I don't see that it has out ran it's material. The stories are all over the place as reference to the time frames. Plus grrm gives them all the material they need if they travel to far too fast. Sadly it takes the book like 5 years to release the next edition.This will be interesting. Has there ever been a series that out-ran it's own source material?

This is by far the best TV series created. Walking dead IMO is #2 but a distant #2.
Tho the intro of Negan will help drive ratings!!

By 'outran' I mean temporally, not artistically . Most of the arcs from Dance with Dragons were covered last season. I know GRRM is contributing, but there are no more books to pull from. Not until 2018 (last I heard).
I don't think they normally allow it to go past the released books. Usually, they'd just put the TV shows on hiatus until the books get further along.
That's what usually happens with anime anyways. lol
