Netflix Casts Its 'Witcher'
With HBO's Game of Thrones heading out on its farewell tour next year, there is going to be a chasm-like gap for epic adult fantasy in TV land. Though Amazon is spending all the money on its Lord of the Rings show, it will be most likely be more PG rated than the much more adult orientated Thrones.

How 'Shameless' Should Handle Emmy Rossum's Departure
It’s no secret that the cast of Shameless considers themselves a close-knit family, and a big chaotic one of that. So much so they that could rival their onscreen Gallagher clan. Emma Kenny and Ethan Curozky, who play the younger Gallagher siblings Debbie and Carl, have grown into young adults on-screen under the wings of their older castmates. Emmy Rossum expressed all of this and more, and she announced in a long and heartfelt post, filled with gratitude and appreciation for having worked so closely with talented and wonderful people for the better part of the decade, that her time on Shameless would be coming to a close. Season nine which is set to premiere later this year on Showtime would be her last season.

'South Park' Doubles Down on Domestic Violence
In case you missed it, in their last episode, South Park addressed the relationship between Cartman and Heidi. While we've seen snippets of Cartman's abuse toward her throughout the season, this episode really doubled down and went heavy on what abuse can look like.

Here's Why the Reboot with the Most Fan Disappointment Goes to 'Charmed'
Charmed, the television show about magic, witches, warlocks, and sisters, has never left fans' minds. Even though the series ended in 2006, it's never really been gone since it continues to air on Netflix, the DVDs still sell strong, and the graphic novels continued the Halliwell sisters' stories until 2016. In fact, those graphic novels delivered story lines that could work well on televisions screen in reuniting Piper, Prue, Phoebe, and Paige.

Porn for the Masses
The UK art and music collective, Bred Pudding, chant "It's all crap TV" and "It's porn for the masses" on their track "Crap TV" which features on their EP Short Circuit Control, but just how true is this in the new broadcast media world of pay to view and stream TV? Moreover, just what constitutes crap TV?

Masterful Suspense in 'Game of Thrones'
The Game of Thrones writers aren’t perfect. They’ve had some mistakes in the past. However, I was re-watching the season seven finale, and, I have to say, it was masterful. There are little things that work beautifully. There’s Sansa saying that the lone wolf dies but the pack survives right before we see Jon Snow make his questionable relationship decision with Daenerys. It’s not too blatant, but it implies that maybe Jon will find himself outside the family circle. I’d like to see that.

'Are You The One?' Season 7: Singles Drama Makes for Good TV
You probably were still around when MTV was all about the music videos, showcasing the staples of the music industry and the new vibes they were bringing to our culture. Nowadays, MTV shows today's music videos early morning time and the rest of the time it is all about the drama. I am one to steer away from real life drama but when it is on the screen, I can not help but grab a bowl of popcorn and get sucked into the drama of others. Is it just me or can you help and change programming?

One Gal’s Thoughts: ‘Bachelor in Paradise’- Week 3
Week three of BIP was highly entertaining especially with all of the new love triangles. Couples that seemed solid last week don’t seem so stable anymore and my opinions have totally shifted. Instead of talking about my favorites, I mostly want to talk about the couples and triangles since they are a little more established this week. Let’s get into it!
