in Apolitical/Top Headlines by

Fans are still reeling from the Season 5 finale of Game of Thrones in which the beloved bastard son of Eddard Stark, Jon Snow, is offed in the most gruesome and betraying of manners.

If you pick five Game of Thrones characters who were still living before Sunday night, chances are one of them is now dead. Google the series if you want spoilers, but you won’t get them here. Just a little tease … Gianluca Fiore has an interesting conspiracy theory. “I’m starting…

Usually Game of Thrones parodies including comedians are what you’d expect them to be – funny. When you pair Kristen Wiig and Jimmy Fallon, you’d expect sheer hilarity. Nope. In what was probably one of the most awkward late-night moments ever, Jimmy Fallon welcomes Kristen Wiig on stage and she’s dressed as Daenerys Targaryen. She’s got the cool hair and cleavage-showing dress and even a baby dragon mounted to her shoulder. Wow, this is going to be great. It all…

Plenty of options for HBO online, not enough time

in Apolitical/Top Headlines by

HBO Now, the cable channel’s new stand-alone streaming service, is both a blessing and a curse. Like HBO Go, the app that cable and satellite TV subscribers have, HBO Now gives you instant access to new TV episodes and movies, along with programs from months and years ago. People who don’t subscribe to cable TV are now able to watch hit shows such as “Game of Thrones” and “Girls” without “borrowing” parents’ accounts or turning to piracy sites. The curse?…

Sunday is the big day, and we’re not talking about Hilary Clinton and Marco Rubio announcing their presidential bids -– that’s small stuff. Game of Thrones premiers the much-anticipated first episode of season 5 at 9 p.m. It means another season of vicious battling over a horribly uncomfortable and menacing chair, some awesome dragons and their bad-ass mom and probably a bunch of characters dying.
