HBO has announced that it has picked up Game of Thrones for a seventh season.
In related news: the sky is blue, the Pope is Catholic and Prince was an amazing musical talent.
The network made this pretty obvious confirmation just days before Game of Thrones Season 6 premieres on Sunday night at 9 p.m.
There had never been any doubt that the series would be renewed for a seventh or an eighth season, with showrunner David Benioff recently telling Variety that there may only be "13 episodes" remaining after Season 6 is complete.
"We're heading into the final lap," Benioff said, acknowledging that the final two seasons may be broken up into six and seven episodes, respectively.
HBO did not mention in this announcement just how many installment will comprise Season 7, which will kick off in the spring of 2017.
The cable network also announced that Veep and Silicon Valley, both of which premiere this Sunday, have been renewed for next year.
As for what fans can expect on Season 6?
As usual, everyone involved with the epic drama has remained as tight-lipped as possible regarding upcoming storylines.
Moreover, the show has actually now outpaced George R.R. Martin, whose latest novel will NOT be complete by the time new episodes air.
So even loyal book fans are in the dark regarding what's on tap.
This much we know, however: Jon Snow is dead...
... until he gets brought back to life, that is. Trust us. This is 1,000% happening.
