who's your favorite andal?
Despite what they call Jorah in Essos, the Mormonts are descendants of the First Men, not the Andals.

But to answer your question, Ser Barristan assuming that he has Andal blood in him as a Southron Knight.
They keep the New Gods in Harvest Hall, so he is surely an Andal. The Mormonts also likely have Andal blood in them considering the Andals numbers when they invaded and generations of marrying other houses
I'm sure you can say that most houses have some andal and some first men blood in them, but if I had to pick one or the other for house mormont I'd go with First Men.

I'm sorry that wasn't my intention. No one deserves that.

EW asked the network’s new programming president Casey Bloys at the Television Critics Association’s press tour in Beverly Hills on Saturday if he plans to go along with showrunners’ David Benioff and Dan Weiss’ oft-stated desire to end the show with season 8.

Bloys said yes, that is the current plan – the first time somebody at HBO has confirmed this – although the executive added that he’d love to get the producers to do more seasons.

The showrunners have planned for the eighth season to consist of six episodes, but Bloys said the exact number is not yet final.

Bummed to hear it's finishing but a ninth season would be dragging the arse out of it.

I've been watching the series back for the 2nd time recently. I appreciate the Arya/Hound stuff a lot more this time around. This is a great show to rewatch, you pick up on a lot of shit when your not trying to figure out who everyone is.

All joking aside... A Storm of Swords is the best fantasy book I've ever read.
