"I think the thing is that like any death in Game of Thrones and Ned Stark's being a great example, every death is not an end to a story; it is the beginning of a story," he said, according to Deadline. "Joffrey's death turns a new page in the book but ok, what a page it turns to. And the season basically starts there and loses total control."

The show has won numerous awards and nominations, including Emmy, Golden Globe and Hugo Awards for best dramatic television series. Furthermore, Peter Dinklage earned the Emmy and the Golden Globe for best actor for his role as Tyrion Lannister.

The synopsis for this week's "Breaker of Chains" is as follows: "In the frenzied aftermath of the royal wedding, Tyrion gets a visit from a loyal subject, but wonders if anyone in his own family will help him out of his current predicament. Meanwhile, Tywin offers to work for the common good with a presumed enemy; Sam takes stock of the personnel at Castle Black; the Hound gives another life lesson to Arya; and Daenerys makes a decision outside the walls of Meereen."
