HBO confirms likely endpoints for House Of The Dragon and The Last Of Us Network president Casey Bloys has largely locked in that House will end after four seasons, while Last Of Us ’ next will likely be its last. William Hughes — By William Hughes | | 3:43pm House Of The Dragon, Photo: HBO TV News House of the Dragon Copy to clipboard × Copy Link Copy Link — Facebook X Reddit Bluesky Email — 0 HBO president Casey Bloys gave a big, expansive interview to Deadline this week , with much of it devoted to, essentially, noting how wild it is that you can get a lot of people to watch TV if you make a high-quality medical drama and then make a ton of episodes of it. (wild, right?)

But Bloys also talked, at least loosely, about the networks plans for the future, including at least sort of confirming ending points for several of its most prominent shows.

The Details

The big one, in this case, being Game Of Thrones spin-off House Of The Dragon , which Bloys locked in will end after its fourth season , mirroring earlier comments from showrunner Ryan Condal. That is the idea, Bloys mostly locked in, when asked point-blank whether the series—which is rn in post-production on its third season—would wrap up with the fourth.

The idea has always been to follow the history of the Targaryens. If you know the books, you know how the Targaryens end up.

Why This Matters

So there is a natural end to this particular history of that House of the Targaryens. (Before you ask, yes: Bloys also talked a bit about the behind-the-scenes drama on the series, including not sounding entirely thrilled that author George R. Martin roiled things up again with a recent interview where he called his relationship with Condal abysmal : Like any good American family, I would prefer that our dysfunction stays behind closed doors, Bloys noted.

The entertainment world moves fast, and this is a prime example.

The Bottom Line

Martin roiled things up again with a recent interview where he called his relationship with Condal abysmal : Like any good American family, I would prefer that our dysfunction stays behind closed doors, Bloys noted.
