Oliver Queen Just Faced The Ultimate Betrayal On 'Arrow'
This post contains spoilers for Arrow Season 5. Five years ago, #OliverQueen was finishing up his journey in Russia. He'd made peace with his darkness...or, at the very least, had given it a different identity. With the help of a teacher, he'd learned how to live with the trauma of his years of torture, and harness his strength to help what was then called Starling City. That teacher shaped him and essentially created the #GreenArrow.

'Manhunt: Unabomber' Is A Terrifying Look Into The Mind Of Domestic Terror
Terror is something that stretches across generations, locations, ages, races and religious affiliation. Terrorism is a broad term and in the broadest sense describes the use of violence as a means to create fear for some underlying purpose. Hundreds of millions of people over the centuries have been impacted by terrorists: sometimes in groups like ISIS, the IRA, the Taliban, the Ku Klux Klan and the LTTE in Sri Lanka. Other times these acts of terror are spawned by a single person: John Wayne Gacy, Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, or even the still unknown Zodiac Killer. Here in the United States we've witnessed our share of home-grown terrorists, which back before many of the recent attacks occurred, were simply called "serial killers".

"Jaime Is Such An Idiot": Nikolaj Coster-Waldau Has Little Faith In Jamie Lannister's Fate
Warning: This post contains spoilers for Game of Thrones Season 7, Episode 4. Jamie Lannister has had a rough few years in Game of Thrones, losing his hand, his father, and all of his children. In the latest episode, "The Spoils of War," his life may have finally taken a dive into the deep end (literally) after facing his most difficult test yet - a fire-breathing dragon. The show has delivered riveting battle sequences throughout the entire seventh season, but the battle in The Reach between the Dothraki and the Lannister/Tarly alliance truly captured the spectacle of a fantasy-inspired medieval battle. In particular, the scene proved to be a huge turning point for the Kingslayer, and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau has since spoken about what the epic confrontation means for Jaime Lannister.

A Dog Breeder Is Trying To Bring Direwolves Back From Extinction
If you were recently watching Game of Thrones Episode 4, "The Spoils of War" in the hopes of getting another glimpse of the show's incredible direwolves, you were likely disappointed. Ghost didn't accompany Jon Snow to Dragonstone, while Nymeria's return to the show was short-lived.

'Supernatural' Will "Carry On" As Long As The Winchesters Want
Hell's bells have been ringing for the Winchester brothers for years, and it doesn't appear that The CW has any plans for Supernatural to end as long as the cast, crew, and fans are engaged. As the series approaches its 13th season, nobody could have guessed that Supernatural would become one of the longest running shows in recent history, surviving 264 episodes, a network rebrand from The WB to The CW, and countless deaths for each character. Supernatural shows no signs of slowing down, with an upcoming Scooby-Doo crossover and a spinoff in the works.

Stick 'Em With the Pointy Ending: 'Game of Thrones' Season 8 Might Not Air Until 2019
The Kingsroad is coming to an end and HBO's Game of Thrones is zeroing in on who (if anyone) will sit their bony backside on the Iron Throne. The epic ice and fire saga may be speeding up before winding down, but with only six episodes left, fans are settling in for a slightly shorter winter than we might've expected. Author George R.R. Martin may not even have finished his sixth of seven books, but showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss have their sights set firmly on the end game for Westeros as we currently know it.
