'Game of Thrones' uses a clever trick to tell so many stories at once
HBO
If you've been thinking that there's a confusing amount of different storylines and characters on "Game of Thrones" lately, then you're not alone. Even the people who work on the show are aware of this.
Season six seems to be especially jam-packed with plots. While characters usually come and go, this season seems to have a lot of characters that are either returning or coming back from the dead.
Entertainment Weekly recently talked to "Game of Thrones" co-executive producer Bryan Cogman and asked about how the show manages to juggle so many different stories.
"The timelines between the various storylines don't necessarily line up within a given episode," Cogman told EW.

"We realized a while ago that if we tied ourselves in knots trying to make all the 'story days' line up between all the characters the momentum would suffer," Cogman concluded.
This explains why "Game of Thrones" has managed to do such a great job balancing a gigantic world, and is able to fully flesh out major characters like the Starks and the Lannisters, as well as smaller ones like Hodor and Brienne of Tarth.
