List of Game of Thrones episodes

The sixth season of the fantasydrama television series Game of Thrones premiered on HBO on April 24, 2016, and concluded on June 26, 2016. It consists of ten episodes, each of approximately 50–60 minutes long, largely of original content not found in George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series. Some story elements were derived from the novels and from information Martin revealed to the show-runners.^[1] The series was adapted for television by David Benioff and D. B. Weiss. HBO ordered the season on April 8, 2014, together with the fifth season, which began filming in July 2015^[2]^[3] primarily in Northern Ireland, Spain, Croatia, Iceland and Canada. The entire season cost over $100 million to produce.^[4]

The season follows the continuing struggle between the Starks and other noble families of Westeros for the Iron Throne. The Starks defeat the Bolton forces in the 'Battle of the Bastards', culminating with Sansa Stark feeding her tormenting husband Ramsay Bolton — who had earlier murdered his father Roose and stepfamily — to his starving hounds, and Jon Snow is proclaimed the King in the North. Tyrion attempts to rule Meereen while Daenerys is held captive by a Dothraki tribe. At King's Landing, the Tyrell army attempts to liberate Margaery and Loras, but Margaery capitulates to the High Sparrow, who becomes more powerful by influencing King Tommen. At her trial, Cersei burns the Great Sept — killing her rivals — and is later crowned Queen of the Seven Kingdoms, while Tommen commits suicide. Ellaria Sand and three of Oberyn Martell's daughters kill Doran and Trystane Martell and seize control of Dorne. In Essos, Daenerys Targaryen is captured by Khal Moro who takes her before the khals; she burns them alive and takes command of the Dothraki. Olenna and the Dornish ally with Daenerys.

Game of Thrones features a large ensemble cast, including Peter Dinklage, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Lena Headey, Emilia Clarke and Kit Harington. The season introduced new cast members, including Max von Sydow, Pilou Asbæk and Essie Davis.

Critics praised its production values, writing, plot development, and cast. Game of Thrones received most nominations for the 68th Primetime Emmy Awards, with 23 nominations, and won twelve, including that for Outstanding Drama Series for the second year in a row. U.S. viewership rose compared to the previous season, and by approximately 13% over its course, from 7.9 million to 8.9 million by the finale.

Production[edit]

Crew[edit]

The writing staff for the sixth season includes executive producers and showrunners David Benioff and D. B. Weiss, producer Bryan Cogman and Dave Hill. Author George R. R. Martin, who had written one episode for each of the first four seasons, did not write an episode for the sixth season, as he was working to finish writing the sixth A Song of Ice and Fire novel, The Winds of Winter.^[69] The directing staff for the sixth season was Jeremy Podeswa (episodes 1 and 2), Daniel Sackheim (episodes 3 and 4), Jack Bender (episodes 5 and 6), Mark Mylod (episodes 7 and 8), and Miguel Sapochnik (episodes 9 and 10). Sackheim and Bender were first-time Game of Thrones directors, with the rest each having directed two episodes in the previous season.^[70]

Writing[edit]

With the end of the fifth season, the content of the show has reached the plot of the latest novel in Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series, A Dance with Dragons. Season 6 director Jeremy Podeswa said in August 2015: 'Right now in season six, what we're shooting currently isn't based on anything in the book. It's fully based on discussions the writers have had with George Martin, because the series has now surpassed the books in terms of what's available.'^[71] Actress Natalie Dormer, who plays Margaery Tyrell, later added that the show's writers 'know where it's got to go and what [George Martin]'s intentions for the characters are. But they are just filling in the gaps.'^[72]

The season premiere starts off right where the fifth season ended.^[73] A plot from The Winds of Winter regarding a traveling theater troupe located in Braavos that stages a play called 'The Bloody Hand', about the events that have taken place in King's Landing since the beginning of the series, is included in the sixth season.^[74]

Filming[edit]

The Castle of Zafra in Guadalajara, Spain is among the filming locations.

Filming for season six began in July 2015, and ended on December 17, 2015.^[75] The budget for the sixth season increased compared to the previous seasons as each episode did cost over $10 million per episode, totaling over $100 million for the full season and setting a new high for the series.^[76] The season filmed in five different countries, Northern Ireland, Spain, Croatia, Iceland and Canada.^[77]

Like the previous seasons, a large amount of production took place in Northern Ireland, mainly in Belfast and on the Causeway Coast, including film locations in the Binevenagh, Magilligan area which was used to film scenes for the Dothraki Grasslands, and Larrybane Quarry and Ballintoy Harbour, both used for scenes in the Iron Islands. The small village of Corbet was also used, for the siege of Riverrun. As in previous seasons, some of Castle Black was set at the abandoned Magheramorne quarry.^[78]

From September 3 to October 23, 2015 the show also filmed in Spain, specifically in Girona, Navarre, Peniscola, and Almería.^[79]^[80] Some filming locations in Spain included the Castle of Zafra in Guadalajara, the Bardenas Reales Natural Park in Navarre, the Alcazaba in Almería, and the Castle of Santa Florentina in Canet de Mar.^[81]^[82]

In August 2015, HBO announced that for the first time since season 1, the show would not be filming any scenes in Croatia. The Croatian city of Dubrovnik has stood in for King's Landing since the beginning of season 2; nearby cities such as Klis, Split and Šibenik have been used to depict various other locations.^[83] Contradicting the statement by HBO, cast of the show were seen in costume in Dubrovnik in October 2015.^[84]

Only a very small portion of the season was filmed in Canada (north of Calgary, Alberta): the scenes featuring Jon Snow's wolf Ghost (played by animal actor Quigly).^[85] However, some of the special effects were created at Montreal's Rodeo FX studios which has won Emmy Awards previously for its work on the series.^[86]

Casting[edit]

Pilou Asbæk plays Euron Greyjoy.

The sixth season saw the return of Isaac Hempstead Wright as Bran Stark, Kristian Nairn as Hodor, Ellie Kendrick as Meera Reed, Gemma Whelan as Yara Greyjoy, and Rory McCann as Sandor 'The Hound' Clegane, who did not appear in the fifth season.^[22]^[44]^[87]Clive Russell, Tobias Menzies, Patrick Malahide, Richard Dormer and Paul Kaye also returned to the show as Brynden Tully, Edmure Tully, Balon Greyjoy, Beric Dondarrion and Thoros of Myr after not appearing since the third season.^[37]^[38]^[40]^[45]Jonathan Pryce as the High Sparrow was added to the series main cast after appearing in a recurring role in the previous season.^[88]

Across the Narrow Sea, Melanie Liburd plays a Red priestess from Asshai who is in R'hllor's service.^[89] At the Reach, House Tarly is introduced, with Freddie Stroma joining the cast as Samwell Tarly's brother Dickon Tarly, a character who was mentioned in the novels but has yet to appear in them.^[90] Other members of House Tarly that were introduced were Randyll Tarly, played by James Faulkner; Melessa Tarly, played by Samantha Spiro and Talla Tarly, who was portrayed by Rebecca Benson.^[91]

Veteran actor Max von Sydow was cast to play the Three-Eyed-Raven, who is training Bran.^[31] The character was previously played by Struan Rodger in the fourth-season finale 'The Children'. David Bradley confirmed in August 2015, that he would be returning to the show as Walder Frey after last appearing in the third-season finale 'Mhysa', but he did not confirm when he would be returning.^[92] After the second official trailer was released, it was confirmed that Bradley would appear in the sixth season.^[36] Danish actor Pilou Asbæk joins the show as Theon Greyjoy's uncle, pirate captain Euron Greyjoy.^[46] Members of the Icelandic band Of Monsters and Men made cameo appearances.^[93]Ricky Champ played Gatins, an outlaw who is a part of a band using religion to justify extorting the people of the countryside.^[42] A young Ned Stark was portrayed by Sebastian Croft in a flashback scene.^[94]

The sixth season also included a traveling theater troupe located in Braavos that stages a play called 'The Bloody Hand', about the events that have taken place in King's Landing since the beginning of the series. Essie Davis and Kevin Eldon joined the cast in this theater troupe, portraying actors playing Cersei Lannister and Ned Stark, respectively, while Richard E. Grant was cast as the troupe's manager.^[60]^[74]^[95] Members of Icelandic indie band Of Monsters and Men appear as the musicians of the Braavos theatre group.^[96]

The soundtrack for the season was digitally released on June 24, 2016, and was released on CD on July 29, 2016.^[97] The album reached #27 on the Billboard 200,^[98]#1 on Soundtrack chart,^[99] and #79 on the Canadian Albums chart on its digital release,^[100] with the track from the season finale 'Light of the Seven' reaching #1 on Billboard's Spotify Viral 50 chart.^[101]
