The New <i>Game Of Thrones</i> Trailer Hints At One Very Cool Storyline
HBO released a new Game Of Thrones trailer for Season 7, and fans around the world are asking themselves one question: “Where is the incest?”...
<i>Fargo</i> Remains The Best, Most Inexplicable Show On TV
The three seasons of Fargo do not share any of the same characters, timelines, or even locales. The show’s anthology drama allows it to pull in talent like Ted Danson and Billy Bob Thornton for a single season, and what it lacks in the sort of continuity that sustains any long-running TV show, it ma...
We're Never Getting Another <i>Game Of Thrones</i> Book, But HBO Will Be Making <i>Thrones</i> Spinoffs Forever<em></em>
Normally around this time in May, Game of Thrones, HBO’s hit show about sailing and cousin-fucking, is approaching the halfway point of its season. The course of the season’s plot has been charted, glowery dudes have glowered across dimly lit tables at each other, and at least one character has been...
The Time Has Come For <i>The Americans'</i> Philip Jennings To Defect
I like watching The Americans because I like watching two characters who are, without question, worse parents that I am. As much as I fuck up, I will never have to shield my kids from the fact that I have slaughtered dozens of innocent people, and I will not then attempt to indoctrinate the oldest o...
Here Is A Harrowingly In-Depth Analysis Of The New <i>Game Of Thrones </i>Poster
Game Of Thrones, HBO’s hit show about cartography and snowstorms, will be back soonish (probably in July). The release date hasn’t been announced yet, but the first bit of show-related ephemera dropped today, via EW. It’s a poster. There’s a lot of ice....
Everyone In<i> Taboo </i>Is Repulsive And That's Good As Hell
I’ll watch pretty much any British period drama that’s available to me because I like cool costumes and accents. Penny Dreadful? Sign me the hell up. Peaky Blinders? You bet your ass. The Crown? Ehhh, I don’t know, maybe. It’s maybe not technically a “period” drama, but I’d say 80 percent of the rea...
Whatever The Hell <i>The Young Pope</i> Was, It Ruled<em></em>
If there’s one scene that best captures the sense of hallucinatory wonder of watching HBO’s The Young Pope, it’s a vision that the Pope has in the season finale....
Proposal: They Should Make <i>Sherlock</i> Into Movies<em></em>
The fourth season of Sherlock came and went, and it’s altogether possible that there won’t be a fifth one, because Benedict Cumberbatch is a huge fucking movie star now, and Martin Freeman isn’t far behind. These are busy men, and getting them together with creators Steven Moffatt and Mark Gatiss (w...
The Best Things We Watched In 2016
When we weren’t busy watching sports contests, we watched some things. Here are the best things we saw this year....
What The Hell Is <i>Westworld</i> Gonna Do Next Season?
Television’s best show about murderous sex robots, HBO’s Westworld, wrapped up its debut season last night in the way most prestige TV shows do. Characters died, twists were revealed, and the season ended on a somewhat ambiguous note....
The Entire Plot Of The Next Season Of <i>Game Of Thrones </i>Seems To Have Leaked
HBO’s Game Of Thrones, the hit show about sibling fucking, is currently in the process of filming its seventh and kinda-sorta-not-really final full season in Spain. While most of the plot developments of the first six seasons were either matters of public record or relatively simple to discern, auth...
The Wildest Fan Theories About <i>Kevin Can Wait</i>
Everyone loves Westworld, but the only thing everyone loves more than Westworld are theories about the future plot events of Westworld. Fans coming up with and then spreading theories of dubious repute is not a phenomenon unique to HBO’s new show about cowboys and sex robots, but the layered uncert...
Get A Load Of These Outlandish <i>Westworld</i> Fan Theories
HBO’s Westworld is draped with the trappings of the horror, action adventure, and Western genres, but it’s best understood as a mystery. The show doesn’t exactly have a coherent, unified plot so much as a tableau of vignettes and characters whose interconnectedness is only vaguely clear. The more th...
HBO's <i>Westworld</i> Is Violent, Philosophical, And Somehow Tons Of Fun
There’s this moment in the premiere of HBO’s Westworld, the network’s latest drama offering and one of its most expensive since Game Of Thrones, when two characters come across a robbery in progress. You’ve watched this scene play out in hundreds of Westerns; the white hat kills the black hats, sav...
<i>The Night Of</i> Made Its Characters Morons Because It Kind Of Sucked
Almost every character in The Night Of, the eight-episode limited crime series that wrapped up on HBO last night, acted like a big idiot at one point or another. ...
Tom Hardy Can Steal A Whole Season Of Television In Six Minutes
Tom Hardy isn’t the main character of Peaky Blinders, a BBC show about an upwardly mobile 1920s Romani crime family by the same name. He doesn’t show up until season two as Alfie Solomons, the leader of a Jewish gang in London who becomes one of many adversaries faced by Tommy Shelby (played by Cill...
<i>Game Of Thrones</i> Took Us To Hell
Game of Thrones is a show that wallows. Through the course of six seasons, the camera has gleefully lingered on a pre-teen being burnt alive by her parents, the only fun-having man in King’s Landing getting his skull popped like a piece of bubble wrap, a pregnant woman and her baby getting stabbed t...
GRRM Reads New Old Pages, Lending Credence To Insane <i>Game Of Thrones</i> Fan Theory
Famed no-pages-haver George R.R. Martin went to Balticon last weekend, revealed Brienne of Tarth’s secret lineage, and read some pages, which, despite their fresh unveiling, are old. He’s been slowly letting out advance chapters from The Winds Of Winter, the sixth volume in his A Song Of Ice And Fir...
Who Is Going To Kill Ramsay Bolton?
There are only two questions that I’m interested in seeing answered during this season of Game of Thrones: Is Ramsay Bolton going to get fucked all the way up? If he is, who is going to do it?...
