Some Game of Thrones stuff because there will never be an end to the Game of Thrones stuff:
This. This explains everything:
Last night’s Game of Thrones: The Last Watch was revelatory for a number of reasons, but mostly because of Kit Harington’s reaction to the finale, and Emilia Clarke’s reaction to his reaction.
This character who died wasn’t originally going to die (but then he died). Funny how the writers found logic in this one instance.
Don’t count Charles Dance among fans of the finale.
That photo Sophie Turner posted on Instagram has become a whole meme now:
Hey, at least Lost didn’t make this gallery of worst finales of all time. That’s something.
Mr. Robot will be coming back soon(ish).
Apparently, they are considering six different Fraser reboot ideas.
Adam Levine left The Voice and didn’t take Blake Shelton with him. Pity.
#MeToo
I’m sure by now you’ve heard about how Moby claimed he dated Natalie Portman and Natalie Portman was like, “ew, gross, no,” and then Moby was like “UH HUH, AND HERE’S A WEIRD PICTURE TO PROVE IT” but it didn’t prove anything except that like lots of dudes, he misread the entire situation. Well, anyway, he’s apologized. Kinda.

Noooooooooo!!!!!! Not AP Bio!!!!! I love that show…..
Me, too, also. Admittedly it had a limited life span without major character changes (unless taking *that* AP class meant they’d all have to repeat a grade or three … a possibility) but it would have been fun to see where they went.
