Note about the DVD/BluRay release date. It's probably going to be February or March 2017, based on the pattern of the previous 5 seasons which were all released in those months. The streaming video version may come before that, but its not clear when. (Hey, I'm just the messenger. Don't hate me. I can't make them release it faster. I canceled HBO as soon as GoT ended and I want to watch it again too.) That said, there is no point in paying for it now (July 2016) on instant video because you're not going to be able to actually watch it for probably 9 months.
As for the show....
Things get real in Season 6. With only 2 short seasons remaining after season 6 (Both seasons 7 and 8 are reported to be under 10 episodes each) the scattered storylines are starting to come together into one grand story. Don't worry, I'm not going to give away any details here about who wins and who loses in this season. There might be mild spoilers for here for people who haven't seen the first 5 seasons, but if you haven't see Season 1 - 5 yet you should be no where near this listing for season 6 because you will be so incredibly confused by what's going on that your brain might explode. .
Like every other season, some people win. Some people lose. A lot of people die. If you've watch the previous 5 seasons you'll know that's not a spoiler. That's practically a tagline for the series.
The story line through season 6 was starting to get really fractured, going in 100 different directions. Season 6 starts to reign them all back in to one main storyline regarding who ultimately gains lasting power over the Seven Kingdoms, which has been the main story arc of the entire series. It's just getting more focused now. (Largely because 90% of the original competitors for the Iron throne has killed each other prior to season 6)
Season 6 also hits you with a lot of surprises that you will not see coming. A lot of times when an epic series like this starts to move towards a final resolution there will be a buffer season that sets up major plot points but isn't all that entertaining in the process. That is not the case here. Season 6 may be the best season so far. There are at least 2 episodes that are EASILY in the top 5 of the entire series. And there is one plot reveal that qualifies as the best absolute game changer for the direction of the story. (Don't worry. I'm not even going to hint about what it is or when it happens. Just know that at some point in season 6 your mind will be blown.)
Also, without going into detail so as to not spoil anything for people who haven't watched yet....apparently a Lannister always COLLECTS on their debts, too. Shame.........shame........
Visually the series continues to be stunning. The production value is just insane on this show. The costumes. The set designs. It's all incredible.
The story, both the overall story and the individual smaller storylines, continue to be very entertaining with so much detail packed into them that you feel a part of the show.
But the real joy of the series, and in Season 6 more than any other in my opinion, is the character development. Early in the series there were clearly defined good guys and bad guys. Ned Stark was a good guy, pure to his core. Cersei Lannister was an evil Queen, as black hearted as could be. Everyone fell into those defined roles early on. As the show progressed you see more moral grey area and internal conflict in the characters. But in season 6 they take that to a new level. You see new sides of characters showing their internal struggles and that gives them so much more depth. The character development is what really pushes season 6 to the top of the pile for me. You still have absolute bad guys. But most everyone else is dealing with some kind of moral struggle and it's just amazingly good writing.
Hand in hand with the great character development is great acting for those characters. The best writing in the world is useless if you don't have actors who can sell the parts. Game of Thrones does not have that problem. Not only are the individual actors amazing, but they've all been working together now for multiple seasons so there is more chemistry between them. The actors play off of one another better because they've been working together for so long. It all makes the entire show more immersive and believable. (As believable as a show with fire breathing dragons can be anyway)

Steelbook For The Sixth Season Of GAME OF THRONES!
I bought this mainly for the collectible steelbook and magnet.— MULTIPLE COPIES —You get three different copies of the series:1) Blu-ray (physical discs)2) UltraViolet 1080p HD version (digital copy, HD only available on some devices)3) iTunes 1080p HD version (digital copy)The digital code gives you two digital versions (which is rare and appreciated).— STEELBOOK and MAGNET —This steelbook has artwork designed by Elastic, the agency that created the Emmy Award-winning opening credits, and has a magnet on the cover that can be removed and used as a regular magnet, or left on to show off as a collector's piece. Each season represents one of the major houses of the series, but this season six steelbook represents the City of Braavos with a Braavos coin on the magnet. The steelbook is in a matching decorative plastic outer case that holds the magnet in place so it doesn't scratch the steelbook. The outer plastic case is thicker than the previous four seasons (which was easy to crack).— THE SHOW —The show is great—in acting, in storytelling, in visuals, in music, and in writing. I've watched everything at least three times, and there are so many new things you see when re-watching, and with the knowledge of future episodes.The sixth season continues immediately after the events of last season's finale. There are so many great episodes this season, I will highlight the ones that stood out for me and keep it spoiler-free. Firstly, we find the origin of someone's name. WHO KNEW that finding out something so simple would be the saddest thing you'll ever watch in Game of Thrones. Next, we have a character who meets some old friends and you're wondering why we are watching a repeat of plot points, only to be astounded when these repeated events result in a very powerful and impactful moment. And lastly, that final episode. From the moment it started playing, you could tell something was... off. If you paid attention to certain details during the season, it shouldn't be much of a surprise, but even those who thought they knew what was about to happen probably didn't think it would actually happen.I have converted many friends who previously used to think this was about "dungeons and dragons and lord of the rings," (like I did) who are now *all* addicted to the show. If you don't already know, this show isn't about what you think it may be about.This is currently THE only good show on television, and if you don't like it, you probably don't understand good television (sorry, not sorry). It has been the number one torrented show in every single year since it came out for a reason (which is a blessing and curse for the producers). After watching this, everything else on TV becomes: "why I am watching all these other crappy shows?"This is one of those series that I will buy the individual season sets, and whatever big box set comes out in the future. GAME OF THRONES! Recommended.
