HBO has held "Game of Thrones" to 10-episode seasons through its first four years on the air, but author George R.R. Martin really wishes that would change. In an interview with the New York Times, he laments the fact that the TV show doesn't have more time to explore the nuanced character relations he writes in the "A Song of Ice and Fire" novels.
HBO电视台美剧《权力的游戏》前四季每季都是10集，不过作为原作者George R.R. Martin希望这个规律会有变化。在《纽约时报》的采访中，马丁叹息地表示电视剧中并没有足够的时间来演绎他书中各个角色之间纠葛的关系。

"I wish we had more episodes," he tells the paper. "I'd love to have 13 episodes. With 13 episodes, we could include smaller scenes that we had to cut, scenes that make the story deeper and richer."
“我希望每一季的集数能够多一些，”他说。“每一季13集我觉得会比较好。如果有13集的话，我们就能看到那些小场景，包括那些因为时间问题而被剪掉的剧情，我相信这些细节会让故事更加深度、生动。”

"Game of Thrones'" Season 4 finale airs Sunday (June 15) at 9 p.m. ET/PT.
《权力的游戏》第四季结局集将会在北京时间6月16日播出。
