As Game of Thrones winds its epic Ice and Fire saga to a close, fans of HBO's fantasy frolic are sure it will be a case of "burn baby burn" before the show bows out. We have already seen Queen Daenerys Targaryen embrace her ever-growing dragons and rise to the top of the Westerosi food chain, but it looks like the floppy-haired Jon Snow is hot on her heels.

A Slow And Painful Death: Stars Reveal How Long 'Game Of Thrones' Season 8 Will Take To Film
Everyone knows that it's not the size that counts, it's what you do with it that matters, and it looks like HBO's Game of Thrones is keeping this in mind for its final run. Fans were already left out in the cold when they found out that Season 7 had slashed its usual 10 episode run to just seven, but then the Valyrian dagger was twisted further as it was revealed that Season 8 would be an abridged finale of only six episodes. Now, in a strange change of fortune, the cast and crew are saying that the show's epic swansong will take even longer to film.

The Seven Samurai Kingdoms: Amazing Video Showcases Anime 'Game Of Thrones'
Just when you think you have seen every piece of erotic fiction and fan art that you can from HBO's Game of Thrones, you find that you may have overlooked one amazing avenue of culture to explore. After seven years of swordplay and Starks, fans have gotten used to David Benioff and D.B. Weiss's violent take on the world of Westeros, however, what if everyone's favorite fantasy frolic was given a bloodthirsty makeover thanks to its own anime outing? With the likes of Ghost in the Shell, Naruto, and all those Studio Ghibli productions, it is amazing that no one has given Thrones the anime treatment until now.

May The Sauce Be With You: McDonald's Causes Riots Over 'Rick And Morty' Szechuan Sauce
Wubba lubba grub-grub, it looks like the world is still gripped by Szechuan sauce fever thanks to a one-off joke by Adult Swim's Rick and Morty. The Season 3 premiere saw an off the cuff homage to McDonald's, which famously introduced Szechuan sauce in the '90s to promote Disney's Mulan. However, a nostalgia-filled trip back to 1998 may have been a misfire for the fast food conglomerate, and fans are hitting back at those golden arches after the sauce disastrously returned to stores for one day only.

In the words of Season 1's bratty Sansa Stark, "You're spoiling everything!" — well, at least that is the hope of HBO hackers when it comes to Game of Thrones.

Seven Hells And Weddings Bells: Kit Harington And Rose Leslie's Wedding Will Delay 'Game Of Thrones' Season 8
There is nothing more beautiful than the romantic union of two souls in good ol' wedding — well, that is unless you are part of HBO's Game of Thrones. Over the past seven seasons of sex and slaughter, fans of the fantasy epic have come to learn that weddings likely lead to throat-slitting, asphyxiation, or rape — not exactly the kind of wedding gift anyone asks for.

The 'Teen Wolf' Series Finale Perfectly Set Up A Potential Movie Or Spinoff
Teen Wolf wrapped its final season on Sunday, September 24th, but its ending was more of a "see you soon" rather than a goodbye. People we thought would die didn't, some characters were redeemed, and others were still standing at the end, leaving big question marks about the others we didn't see. All in all, it was a phenomenal job, especially since it effectively set the scene for a reboot, a revival, or a movie, whichever executive producer Jeff Davis wants to pursue in the future, and there is no doubt Davis isn't ready to let the successful series go.

Starring Adrianne Palicki as Wonder Woman, along with Elizabeth Hurley and Cary Elwes, the potential series got a lot of hype at the time — but the network ultimately declined to pick it up.

These Girls Are On Fire: How The Women Of 'The Flash' Are Making Their Mark On The CW Superhero Show
The Flash hasn't always been good to its female stars. In the past, it relegated Iris West, a fierce character in the DC comics, to a journalist who wasn't really working. In fact, she spent most of her time — after discovering Barry Allen's secret — hanging out at S.T.A.R. Labs and basically playing a cheerleader.

Awards Shows Ratings Are Plummeting: Maybe It's Time To Stop Being So Political
With the premiere of the Emmys on September 17th, viewers settled in to root for their favorite stars and television shows. Unfortunately, they also had to sit through monologues and speeches that blatantly veered into political territory as celebrities used their turn at the microphone to let the crowd know their views on the current political climate.
