News Media Martin wants House of the Dragon to be 4 seasons long.
"It is going to take four full seasons of 10 episodes each to do justice to the Dance of the Dragons, from start to finish.."

Most book readers also had a 4 season projection to cover Dance , and if GRRM says so that's what most likely would happen this time.

I always thought 3.5 seasons would be perfect. 2nd season for aegon's rule. 3rd for rhaneyra and 4th for everyone else to die. Though I can see 4 full seasons if they include aegon's regency.

No more half seasons.
Give us a full season through and through. Surely there’s enough material to shoot that many episodes without having filler.

Interesting considering that he wanted 10-13 for GoT. Maybe they’ll actually do it this time as 4 is more practical than 10+.

The boss as spoken, please listen to him this time. I also feel like there was more than enough material for 1 more episode between the first ellipsis of ep 5 and 6, and also 1 more between the second ellipsis of ep 7 and 8. That’s still very frustrating to see such a good show being rushed sometimes…

I’m just thinking that with the amount of production time needed in between seasons, I hope the young adult/child actors all get to like grow up in parallel with the show just right.

The only thing I dont like is im going to have to wait like 10 years for all 4 seasons to be out. Its not something they wi ll rush I dont think, but its going to take a loooong time
