David Benioff and Dan Weiss reveal something they'd change in their HBO fantasy drama. And it's nothing you're expecting.

I don't give a fuck what they have to say after the way they ended the show.

We quite literally canceled HBO after that.

To be fair, it’s not like when asked they were just gonna be like “hmm yeah we kinda fucked the ending. Maybe we’d go back and do it right instead of rushing the pile of garbage we delivered”

Jfc, that's about as bad a clickbait as it gets without being utterly false.

Mord the jailer. That's it. A cameo for him.

“One thing I know I wish we could have done is there’s the character Mord the Jailer,” Benioff says.

“It was a mistake not bringing Mord the Jailer back into it,” Weiss says. “We always talked about doing it.”

“And we had the scene for it,” Benioff says. “There’s a scene set in a tavern…”

“Was it Brienne or The Hound?” Weiss says. “But we realized too late that Mord could have owned the tavern. We could have had that actor in the background acting exactly the way he did as a jailer, except now as a small business owner. It was just such an obvious, no-brainer, day-after idea.”
