I'm wondering how much of the Kingsmoot/Greyjoy Brothers/Dorne/Quentyn will make it in. All of those end up interconnecting in a way (leading up to Dany), but so much of it has to be introduced.

Guess killing off a large chunk of the Kings Landing storyline (Tywin/Shae/No Tyrion or Varys, less Bronn) can open up for more Dorne/Iron Islands, but sadly, more Mereen.
Things like this will be interesting to see what they leave in/take out. It will let us readers know which of these storylines are going to factor into the story and which of them are just tangents

So I'm sure this question has been asked before, but what do yall plan on doing if the show completely passes up the books?
stop watching the show and wait for the books to come out so you're not spoiled by the show?

IMO 8 seasons is the right number. 10 is too many and 7 is too short.

What did Martin "confirm" about Jon living?
Someone asked him at a convention somewhere about killing off Jon Snow. And GRRM answered, "so you think he's dead do ya?" with a chuckle

can't be 8 for 8, when book 3 had 2 seasons.
But secretly, book 4 and 5 will be 1 season
For sure, though, they aren't gonna be able to skip the eventual Bolton/Stannis/Jon/Theon plot. Thats got to be iron clad.
Just need to properly cast the right Fat Manderly, and get the prop guys make up 3 large pies, and we're all set.

So here's the "Winds of Winter" Jon Snow spoiler in GRRM's own words, via io9, a site on the Internet, in response to their question on how the story grew in the telling:
You introduce characters, and sometimes they take on a life of their own.
Some major characters -- yes, I always had plans, what Tyrion's arc was gonna be through this, what Arya's arc was gonna be through this, what Jon Snow's arc is gonna be. I knew what the principal deaths were gonna be, and when they were coming. That would be the closest thing.
Did you see it? Did you see the "Game of Thrones" spoiler that confirms that Jon Snow lives? It's all in that present tense phrasing: "what Jon Snow's arc is gonna be." Tough to have an arc when you're dead. Many commenters on the interview have interpreted it to mean exactly that: like Frodo before him, Jon Snow lives.
Not so fast, say I! Interpret it as a "Winds of Winter" spoiler if you like, but I'm not convinced. Martin could just as well have said "what Ned Stark's arc is gonna be," and that wouldn't mean Ned was coming back. It wouldn't mean anything. A character's story arc can still be spoken of in the present tense even when they are dead -- just as they can be spoken of in the past tense when alive, as GRRM does for Tyrion and Arya above. This means nothing, and if you think it means Jon Snow is definitely still alive, then you know nothing.
That being said, Jon Snow is definitely still alive. Now I'm moving out of possible "Winds of Winter" spoilers and into "Winds of Winter" speculationanalysis, but Jon Snow is not out of this story yet. This is the Song of Ice and Fire, and Jon and Bran are the Ice (Dany is Fire). And far too little of Jon's story has been told. He has yet to come into his own as Azor Ahai (cf. Melisandre's telling quote, "I pray for a glimpse of Azor Ahai, and R'hllor shows me only Snow"). He has yet to become one of the three heads of the dragon, have his true parentage revealed. He has yet to warg his spirit into Ghost and be brought back from the dead in a new (or the same) body by Melisandre, and thusly be released from his Night's Watch oath (now his watch is ended). And if you think none of that will happen, well... I think you know what the phrase is.

As much as I'd like for GRRM to finish the damn books already I honestly wouldn't mind watching the show as a Hodor again.
Posted on 6/13/14 at 11:52 am to Byron Bojangles III
the hodor melt when he goes down and the show fades to black to end the season will be great.

The "Previously On" for the last episode
Gives you an idea on what past storylines are involved. Or are not potentially involved :(

Keep in mind in the books Dany is a 13/14 yr old girl who is trying to learn how to rule a continent of people. So she is bound to make mistakes along the way

So, based on that preview, we KNOW the following to be true:
Bloodraven
Stannis!
Arya parting for Braavos (and, thus, parting ways with the Hound, as well)
They didn't show Tyrion, even though we all know what's going to happen. Hopefully we see Shae choked with hands of gold on the way to the privy.
