House of the Dragon season 2 is less than a month away from hitting Max, and that’s about all we can talk about right now.
The show promised to be back with an epic fight after the jaw-dropping season 1 ending, but all the fuss around the Game of Thrones prequel’s comeback is spurred not only by George R.R. Martin’s book series lovers (who already know how drastically things will turn in the next installment), but especially by the show’s proper actors.
Though House of the Dragon’s cast is surely prohibited to spill the beans on everything that’s about to happen in there, one of the show’s actresses has just dropped a major spoiler, and, unsurprisingly, it has a lot to do with Game of Thrones.

Ready for Game of Thrones lite?
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is a new series coming to HBO next year, and author George R.R. Martin, the EP of the series and creator of the novels that spawned this world, promises a shift in tone.
The new spinoff “will be a lot shorter than Game of Thrones or House of the Dragon, with a much different tone,” Martin posted Wednesday on his blog. “But it’s still Westeros, so no one is truly safe.”
The series follows the adventures of Ser Duncan the Tall (played by Peter Claffey) and his young squire, Egg (played by Dexter Sol Ansell).

When you think about shows that have gone off the rails, Riverdale, Dexter, Game of Thrones, How I Met Your Mother, or Glee usually come to mind.
The majority of the time, it isn't enjoyable. The digression can make for poor television.
However, there are certain cases where it makes TV gold.

Keeping an audience interested and on the edge of their seats can be challenging.
We want to be enthralled, but that comes with the fact that doing this means changing plots, characters, or many other factors.
Going off the rails does not always have to be a negative thing.
Community, for example, started as a traditional sitcom, but its ever-evolving nature created a cult classic and a truly entertaining hit that never became stagnant.

Network executives once came to the upfronts on a mission to get advertisers excited about a handful of new series coming in the fall. This year, TV’s big players took a T-shirt cannon approach.
Every one of the major presentations during the May 13-15 sprint in midtown Manhattan — NBCUniversal, Fox, Disney, Amazon, Warner Bros. Discovery and Netflix — emphasized the breadth of the company’s content offerings. Call it the everything-everywhere-all-at-once strategy for the streaming age.
As always, common themes emerged across the week. “Connections” was the buzziest of buzzwords used by executives pitching their hearts out from the stage. Without question, the song of Upfronts ’24, the one heard at most if not all events, was Beyoncé’s “Texas Hold ’Em.”
After sorting through the firehose of shows and spin, here are a few trends that stood out this year.
1) Star-Power Surge
Last year, the writers strike kept boldface names from appearing at the upfronts.

The Wild West is getting a bit wilder as production on Season 1 of the upcoming drama series The Abandons has begun in Calgary, bringing together an all-star ensemble cast led by Lena Headey (Game of Thrones) and Gillian Anderson as two mothers locked in a bloody feud.

There are many ways to end a show, and all of them have been done. We've seen characters move on to symbolize moving on with their lives, like Friends and New Girl. We've been hit with the realization of the purgatory nature of Lost's setup. We've seen Game of Thrones ruin everyone's hopes and dreams and twist the story in the final moments.
With some better than others, the finale of favorite series is always sad to watch.

Before House of the Dragon season 2 began filming, showrunner Ryan Condal assembled the actors of the Game of Thrones prequel to view a simple slideshow. The subject of this presentation? Dragons, naturally. The dragon riders needed to get acquainted with their bonded beasts, as they’ll never actually meet them in the scaly flesh.
“These poor actors climb up on a saddle but they never interact with the creature they’re supposed to have this close bond with,” Condal says. “If you believe Westerosi historical propaganda, Aegon [II] and Sunfyre famously had the closest bond between dragon and human in history. It’s important for Tom Glynn-Carney as an actor to know what Sunfyre looks like.”

After a short run in theaters, The Fall Guy is now available to purchase on Digital HD with a never-before-seen Extended Cut that features an addiitonal 20 minutes of action-packed new footage from the David Leitch-directed actioner, which stars 3x Academy Award-nominee Ryan Gosling (The Nice Guys; Blade Runner 2049; La La Land) and Academy Award-nominee Emily Blunt (Edge of Tomorrow; The Devil Wears Prada; The Adjustment Bureau) in the lead roles.
The Fall Guy was one of the best received movies of the year, boasting an 82% Certified Fresh rating and an 87% Audience Score on review aggregator RottenTomatoes. However, the warm word of mouth didn't exactly translate to box office success as, to date, it has only grossed over $127.4 million worldwide on its estimated $150 million production budget, likely resulting in Universal fast tracking the film's digital launch.
In addition to Gosling and Blunt, the impressive supporting cast features Aaron Taylor-Johnson,...

During Netflix’s upfront presentation last week, the streaming service promised “additional episodes” of 3 Body Problem, the hugely expensive sci-fi drama from Game of Thrones creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, but what does that mean exactly?
“Additional episodes” could mean just about anything, but 3 Body Problem showrunners David Benioff, D.B. Weiss, and Alexander Woo reached out to THR to clarify that the new deal was for “seasons” of 3 Body Problem. Yep, that’s plural. “We knew going into this how many hours we need to tell the rest of the story because we’ve got a roadmap through to the end,” Weiss said. “And we have what we need to get to the end as intended from when we started.“
The exact number of “additional episodes” wasn’t specified, but Benioff added, “By the time we finish with the show, it will be seven years we’ve devoted to it.

This article contains spoilers for "Shōgun."
It already feels safe to say that FX's "Shōgun'' is the TV breakout of 2024. FX, noticing the comparisons of "Shōgun" to "Game of Thrones," has concluded they have a golden goose and picked up the limited series for two more seasons.
"Shōgun" is set in Japan during the year 1600. Lord Yoshii Toranaga (Hiroyuki Sanada) gains an ally in John Blackthorne (Cosmo Jarvis), a shipwrecked European sailor. Blackthorne came to Japan to ensure the Portuguese didn't seize the island nation before his homeland England could get a trading foothold. When he arrives, he doesn't speak a word of his new companions' language.
One of the first Japanese words that Blackthorne learns is "Teki" — "Enemy." I remember as I watched the scene, I recognized the word myself. I don't speak Japanese, but I have picked up a few words from watching many different anime series.

Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 is going to be one of the biggest releases for Xbox this year. A sequel to Ninja Theory’s 2017 title, we will once again take on the role of Senua after her journey to the Norse underworld in an attempt to retrieve the soul of her lover.
On this journey, Senua, the Pictish warrior, challenged more than just the demons of Helheim. A compelling and touching tale of ostracization due to the mental illness Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice was an experience that many felt was lacking in the previous generation of consoles. Its sequel may set another such benchmark.

Nathalie Emmanuel’s first trip to the Cannes Film Festival was certainly a memorable one.
The “Fast and Furious” franchise star and “Game of Thrones” alum knows what it’s like to be in the spotlight, but Cannes is unique. First, consider the fact that she’s the leading lady in legendary filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola’s longtime passion project “Megalopolis,” which made its world premiere at the festival. Then, there’s the reality of ascending the famed red steps to the Palais des Festivals.
“This whole experience has been like nothing I’ve ever had before,” Emmanuel told Variety the next day. “That moment was so much bigger and so much grander — I just had no concept of how crazy it would be, how exciting it would be, how many people there would be. … It was quite overwhelming, but really exciting and felt like a real celebration.”

With the release of Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2, Xbox has finally added one of its biggest exclusives of the year to its list. First revealed in 2019, the nearly five-year development cycle has yielded a stellar title that will go down in the annals of gaming history as a worthy successor to the 2017 original.
The game is a cinematic treat, but the release has not gone down well with everyone in the gaming community. Some PlayStation fans are tearing down Ninja Theory’s latest flagship release, questioning the effort that has gone into the game.
Gamers Criticize Hellblade 2 for Supposedly Lackluster Performance Numbers Hellblade 2‘s artistic choices are being questioned and criticized.
Next-gen consoles were expected to bring 4K resolution, raytracing, and the highly coveted 60 Fps mark. Some older games are able to hit 120 Fps! Console games these days offer the choice between quality or performance modes, allowing players to choose what they wish to prioritize.

If there's one rule that any fan who's ever been exposed to Game of Thrones knows, it's that weddings in this universe never go right. At this point, any viewer familiar with at least some of the lore knows how many horrible things have happened at weddings, and knows to tense up the second a wedding is even mentioned.
However, House of the Dragon fans who have not yet had enough of the constant cruelty and bloodshed of the universe, as they are only now entering the season of real war, are willing to face the consequences and try another wedding.
The union of Rhaenyra's son, Jacaerys Velaryon, and Daemon's daughter, Baela Targaryen, may be the first somewhat peaceful celebration in a long time.

From the truly iconic Curb Your Enthusiasm to Veep, HBO has always had a taste for a good comedy, but still fails to get the right image of a channel in the eyes of the audience. In people's minds, as the home of The Sopranos, Succession, Game of Thrones and Euphoria, HBO will forever remain a dark channel with nothing to laugh about.
Granted, the comedies that HBO produces are also full of sarcasm and dark humor, but they're still just as entertaining and hilarious as CBS's family-friendly sitcoms. Hopefully, with this new project that combines some legendary names in the sitcom field, the network will attract even more people looking for a good laugh.

One of the standout scenes in the latest trailer of House of the Dragon season 2 is where Alicent stops Aemond from going too far. Yes, the Greens want to win the war, but as his mother says, “Not like this.”
This sudden change in Alicent’s stance leaves something to be desired in fans as they piece together supposed situations in the second season of the show. New images from the previews and set prove that Alicent is not completely on board with Aemond’s insidious plans for the upcoming war for the throne.

Images of Aemond and Alicent together show Aegon’s catspaw dagger on Aemond’s belt. With that sinister smirk on his face, it definitely looks like Aemond is getting the upper hand in every situation. Ewan Mitchell has already claimed that his character is taking the war to another level.

Shogun is the best thing that ever happened to Hulu.
It currently sits in the number one spot as the most-watched program in FX's history, backed by massive critical acclaim.
It doesn't begin or end there, either. The book, published in 1975, was also a massive hit, as was the succeeding 1980s TV mini-series.
Since the release of the most recent iteration, television critics and reviewers have brushed off the idea of a second season, much less a third.
The series and the book both end in the same place, after all. Besides a loosely related 1993 novel, Gai-Jin, James Clavell never wrote a sequel.
Only a week ago, most media outlets were waxing poetic about the show's profound wonders and sulking over the sudden loss of Shogun after a ten-episode run.
It's hard to blame them. What else is there to cover?
Sure, showrunners Justin Marks and Rachel Kondo did...
