Game of Thrones
"A Song of Ice and Fire" author George R. R. Martin wrote one episode in each of the first four seasons. Martin did not write an episode for the later seasons, since he wanted to focus on completing the sixth novel ("The Winds of Winter"). Jane Espenson co-wrote one first-season episode as a freelance writer.
