Winter is Coming (seriously, we’re under a blizzard warning throughout the central US).
With the final season coming out, it seemed the perfect time to tackle the epic series (book and TV).

Game of Thrones Leads 2016 Emmy Nominees
Game of Thrones, which this season passed the books they’re based upon, has nabbed 23 nominations this year. You can see a full list here (PDF).
Genre series are scattered throughout the nominations and, unlike the Oscars earlier this year, full of people from a variety of ethnicities.
2015 Emmy Nominees Announced
You can grab the full list here, but if your genre show wasn’t titled “Game of Thrones” or “American Horror Story: Freak Show,” it didn’t get a nomination.
Game of Thrones – “Mhysa” Discussion
And Season Three comes to a close. The show has been confirmed for a fourth season. Are you looking forward to it?
Game of Thrones – “The Rains of Castamere” Discusson
Tonight featured one of the biggest moments in the entire series.
I think, since the book is thirteen years old, we can dispense with spoiler tags in the comments.
Game of Thrones – “Second Sons” Discussion
King’s Landing hosts a wedding, and Tyrion and Sansa spend the night together. Dany meets the Titan’s Bastard. Davos demands proof from Melisandre. Sam and Gilly meet an older gentleman.
Game of Thrones – “The Bear and the Maiden Fair” Discusson
Dany exchanges gifts with a slave lord outside of Yunkai. As Sansa frets about her prospects, Shae chafes at Tyrion’s new situation. Tywin counsels the king, and Melisandre reveals a secret to Gendry. Brienne faces a formidable foe in Harrenhal.
2012 Emmy Nominees
The list is out and (surprise!) it isn’t good for genre programming.
To sum it up, unless the show was titled “Game of Thrones” or “American Horror Story,” genre shows were basically ignored.
So what say you? Were shows unfairly snubbed or did the genre get what it deserved?
Game of Thrones: Season Two Wrap-Up
There you have it kids, Season 2 is a wrap. And everyone lives happily ever after, right?
Season 3 has been ordered by HBO, but no release date has been set. For those of us without HBO we will have to wait on the DVD release.
So what did you think of the adaptation of the second book in the series, “A Clash of Kings?” Did it live up the first season? Did it live up to the book? What did you like/love/hate/despise?
