Dragonfire is the third weapon against White Walkers along with Dragonglass and Valyrian Steel so yeah, I guess you could have something there.

How many seasons do you think the show will last? 9-10?

D&D said 7, HBO wants 8 max
HBO's biggest show: Sex and the City, The Sopranos and True Blood all stopped at 6/7 seasons.
And Sex and the City (peaked at 11 million) and The Sopranos (peaked at 13 million) were much bigger success than GOT.

Game of Thrones has just claimed its latest victim: The Sopranos. On Thursday, HBO said that the current season of the George R.R. Martin–inspired epic is now the most watched of any series in the pay cable network’s four-decade history, attracting a whopping gross audience of 18.4 million viewers each week once DVR replays and various other legal platforms (replays, HBOGO, video on demand) are added up. GoT surpasses the record set in 2002 by Sopranos, which that year had its biggest tune-in ever, averaging 18.2 million viewers. Vulture reported last year that GoT was getting close to overtaking The Sopranos as HBO’s all-time ratings champ: Last season’s average audience of 13.6 million viewers through early June made GoT the network’s most watched show since the 2004 fifth season of The Sopranos. When final numbers for last season were tallied, GoT actually ended up with an even bigger gross audience (14.4 million viewers) for 2013. It’s now added another 4 million weekly viewers, enough to vault ahead of the most watched season of Sopranos — and every other HBO show ever. All men must die, but at least lots of folks are watching the men and women of GoT pass into immortality.

Personally I don't think they're gonna be able to finish it in 7 seasons, unless they rush through the last 2 books. It seems D&D are bringing a couple of storylines from books 4&5 into Season 6 so we'll see. 8 seasons seems just fine, or a longer, 15 episode 7 season or something.

I was talking first airing, GOT's area is 6-8 million for first airing
The "season premiere" of The Sopranos/Season 4 did 13.43 million for example
Back then, DVR, replays platform or HBOGO weren't as big as today, they barely existed which is even more impressive

Exactly - now people have more ways of watching the show, even illegally. So GoT accomplishment is to not to be underestimated.

Is that irony? lol. I mean its evident that the dragons and white walkers function as the ying and yang in Westeros. Look at the very first season. The moment Daenerys got her eggs, the White Walkers began to return from the dead (also, their rise in power develops simultaneously). Further, one represents the very North of Westeros, the other the South of Westeros. Additionally, one represent winter aka the cold, the other symbolizes fire and heat. Their existence is reciprocal to one another and I believe they can only be alive and vanish at the same time again. After all, they are magical creatures. The connection between both of them is totally obvious imho.

Let's also not forget that GOT has a bigger cultural impact than the other HBO shows. AND it also sells the most merchandise.

So... will Queen Sansa be in all 10 episodes this season? The Character with only 3 chapters left in the books yet she's been put front and center with an expanded role and now she's manipulating the ratings and viewership of the show.
