Neddy, Steady, Go: Crazy 'Game Of Thrones' Theory Says Ned Stark Is Alive
One surefire way to be classed as dead on any TV show is to lose your head and have it placed on a pike for millions of viewers to see. While Prison Break pulled the old head switcheroo for Dr. Tancredi, we are pretty sure that Ned Stark losing his noggin on HBO's #GameofThrones was a finite demise. The noble Hand of the King lost his life (and his melon) in Season 1's "Baelor" to the open-mouthed awe of audiences everywhere.

Hold The Slaw: Hodor Is Back From The Dead In KFC's 'Game Of Thrones' Ad
HBO's Game of Thrones has never been afraid of a culling its own population, but Season 6 of the Ice and Fire saga really took the biscuit. As we waved goodbye to the rotten Ramsay, majestic Margaery, and tragic Tommen, showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss really brought the feels when they gave gentle Hodor the axe.

Our Watch Isn't Over Just Yet: 'Game Of Thrones' Might Have Extra Long Episodes In Season 8
We have already been teased a bittersweet ending to HBO's Game of Thrones, and with a show that isn't exactly known for its joyous storylines, expect an even more macabre storyline to unfold over its final two seasons. However, away from the moping face of Jon Snow, we have some particularly good news for Thrones fans. Taking a knife to the gut, we were shocked to learn that the expected run of 10 episodes would be cut down to just six for Season 8, giving die-hard viewers the worst day of our lives since Catelyn and Robb RSVP'd to the Red Wedding. However, there could be news from Winterfell to help defrost our frozen hearts.

Soap On A Nope: The 10 Most Ridiculous Soap Opera Storylines Ever!
Sopaland is a strange old place where death is never certain, you can change sex at the drop of a hat, and chances are, your evil twin probably did it. From OTT telenovelas to sitting down with a cup of Earl Grey and a slice of cake in rural England, all soaps have several things in common: You need a hero, a villain, and that all important cliffhanger. Just like the Eastenders "duff duff" sound, soaps keeps us coming back for more week after week.

The Clues Are There And The Bromance Is Dead: Should 'Sherlock' Come To An End?
Stoke the fire, take out your revolver, and let's take a shot at the wall; it is time to open the casebook on BBC's Sherlock to unravel the mystery of "Benedict Cumberbatch and the Dwindling Desire"? What started as a bold new show that reimagined the works of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's hat-wearing detective has since muddled into your standard crime drama. The big twists, the well-cast villains, and the "so that's how they did it," has ebbed away thanks to long waits and thin plots.

We're In For A Monstrous Treat: Anime 'Godzilla' Releases Artwork And Cast List!

Bros Before Holmes: Cumberbatch And Freeman's Relationship Spells Trouble For 'Sherlock' Season 5
While it may be all deerstalkers and mysteries on the BBC's detective show Sherlock, there could be trouble brewing behind the scenes. The modern adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's works could be in trouble due to a "frosty" relationship between lead stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman.

Taking The Biscuit: Did 'Sesame Street' Turn Cookie Monster Into Veggie Monster?
Alongside giant birds, effeminate elephants, and a squeaky-voiced Elmo, Cookie Monster has become a staple of the #SesameStreet diet. He has become a part of pop culture lore, even parodied in the likes of Family Guy while begging for his fix of those gooey-centered choc chip cookies. I remember growing up in a time that #CookieMonster released his own line of cookies, which probably would be banned nowadays due to additives and sugar — it is SunnyD all over again.

Wiener Is Coming: 'Game Of Thrones' Showrunners Reveal Why Jon Snow Has A Tiny Penis
With more T&A than a Westworld orgy, HBO's #GameofThrones certainly isn't afraid to give us the odd dickslap now and then to give audiences their fill of willies in Westeros. However, the length of a certain King in the North's manhood has come into question of late, in a turn of events that would make even the pallid skin of a White Walker blush.

The Night Is Long: 'Game Of Thrones' Is Getting An Extra Long Season Premiere
There are no "Thrones" about it, the world of #GeorgeRRMartin has been violently brought to life since 2011 with HBO's #GameofThrones. Now, with only two seasons left, our march into the frosty depths of winter is well underway and we are sadly counting down the remaining episodes until "Valar Morghulis" (all men must die). We have already been punished with an extended wait between the explosive Season 6 finale and Season 7's upcoming start date, but it looks like Game of Thrones is upping the ante (and the runtime) when it returns.

Do The Hokey Chokey: 'Game Of Thrones' Season 7 Trailer Reveals A Huge Spoiler For Cersei
With the Seven Kingdoms coming together once more and the Wicked Witch in the Westeros currently sitting pretty on the Iron Throne, it can only mean one thing: #GameofThrones is returning. As the last two seasons of HBO's fantasy epic wind to a "chilly" conclusion, showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss are setting up #LenaHeadey's Cersei Lannister to be the finale villain — well, apart from the hordes of frozen zombies, that is!

Chey My Name: Cheyenne Jackson Is Back In 'American Horror Story' Season 7
With the urge to purge and another murderously OTT season of #AmericanHorrorStory on the way, fans are baying for information (and blood) on the show's return. We may have seen some Dumbo-nightmare concept art of the season's presumed Big Bad and had some promises of political strife in Washington, but apart from a few casting tidbits, we've been kept in the dark.
