By the notorious Game of Thrones finale, few OGs remained around. The Tyrells, the Targaryens, the Martells, the Bolton, the Freys, and many others essentially went extinct and lost everything. The Lannisters, the Baratheons, and the Starks lost almost all their heirs save for the most unlikely ones. Many Great and small Houses fell to never rise again, with new dynasties coming to take their places.
But one unlikely Great House managed to sit out all the danger, and its lord didn’t lose anything; in fact, he gained much more than he had at the start of the story.
House Arryn Started the Chaos in Westeros
If we pretend to ignore Petyr Baelish’s active participation in these events for a second, it was Jon Arryn, Robert Baratheon’s Hand of the King, who started the entire ordeal that led to the War of the Five Kings. Jon Arryn...

Donald Trump‘s national security adviser, John Bolton, said that the former president wants Americans to treat him like North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.
Bolton shared in the X post a 2018 video of Trump talking to the Fox News host Steve Doocy days after his Singapore summit meeting with Kim.
“Are we close to seeing Mr. Kim here at the White House,” Doocy asked in the recording.
“It could happen,” Trump replied.
Trump then went on to compliment the North Korean supreme leader.
“He’s the head of a country,” Trump stated in the clip. “And I mean, he is the strong head. Don’t let anyone think anything different.
“He speaks, and his people sit up at attention,” he claimed. “I want my people to do the same.”

David Benioff and D.B. Weiss did a show full of death. But one in particular resonated.
Appearing on a new episode of the Happy Sad Confused podcast, the showrunners were asked to name their favorite character death.
“With Thrones, there was so much killing of good guys,” Weiss said, “and we finally got to really kill both Joffrey in season 4 and Ramsay Bolton in season 6. It was fun to go back to the old-fashioned joys of just killing off a really bad guy.”
Bolton, played by Iwan Rheon, was one of the most evil characters in the series. Thus, his death by being devoured by hounds “felt like it was balancing the scales a little,” Weiss said.
Benioff agreed about Bolton’s death. “You don’t really see the death. You see some of it in the background, but you don’t really see the death,” he said. “What you...

Former Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull stated that he views Donald Trump‘s admiration for Vladimir Putin as very unsettling.
“When you see Trump with Putin, as I have on a few occasions, he’s like the 12-year-old boy that goes to high school and meets the captain of the football team,” Turnbull declared on the Australian ABC talk show, Q+A. “‘My hero!’ It is really creepy. It’s really creepy.”
The former Australian prime minister admitted that he found this Trump’s admiration for Putin as striking at the time while also saying that it “struck everybody.”
“It was like you could touch it,” he then mentioned, “It was creepy. The creepiness was palpable.”

John Bolton, former United States U.N. ambassador and Donald Trump‘s national security adviser, claimed Russia will “celebrate” if Trump is reelected as president.
Russian President Vladimir Putin previously made comments showing support for current President Joe Biden over Trump.
“Biden, he’s more experienced, more predictable, he’s a politician of the old formation. But we will work with any U.S. leader whom the American people trust,” Putin stated in an interview with Russian media.
Trump responded in a speech during his South Carolina rally, saying it was a “compliment.”
Bolton told MSNBC that Putin’s comment was a way to provoke Trump into making his own comments.
“It’s clear disinformation,” Bolton said. “Putin thinks [Trump] is an easy mark. They will be celebrating in the Kremlin if he gets elected.”

Aeltc Chief Executive Sally Bolton addressed the booing incident that occurred recently at Wimbledon confirming that the event won't formally address it.
Elina Svitolina announced in an interview with BBC Sport that she won't shake hands with Victoria Azarenka after their Wimbledon clash. The match went ahead and we really didn't see a handshake between the players though Azarenka gave a nod of approval to Svitolina at the end of the match.
That wasn't good enough for the crowd who booed Azarenka while leaving the court, something she found underserved. Svitolina agreed with that as she expressed before the match the hope that the crowd would have a different reaction to the one the French crowd did.
She also urged the governing bodies to issue statements so fans know why it happens because it's unfair to boo the players as they are walking off the court, especially after battling for...

Being stupid, as the saying goes, is like being dead – you’re oblivious either way, so it’s only really a problem for the people around you. The people around TV documentarian Philomena Cunk therefore, have a major problem.
At the end of January this year, America met Cunk properly for the first time when new show Cunk on Earth arrived on Netflix US. A documentary series follow-up to 2018’s Cunk on Britain, it’s an ambitious attempt to sum up the history of humankind in five half-hour episodes, made even more ambitious by the fact that it’s presented by a total moron.
A deliberate total moron, let’s be clear. Some apparently still aren’t clear that Philomena Cunk is not a real TV presenter but a character played by British comedy actor Diane Morgan. When Morgan appeared on US chat show Late Night With Seth Meyers earlier this year,...

The former president has thrown countless figures he appointed to critical positions under the bus, deriding them as inherently stupid losers incapable of doing the job. The latest is John Kelly, who served as Homeland Security secretary under Trump before moving into the White House as chief of staff.

The middle finger emoji Reed used in her comment appeared to be a dig at admirers who questioned her and her husband’s marriage since they chose to live separately for their first few years of marriage.
Bolton also shared one of the same pictures and wrote: “We did it Our way.”

Wimbledon organisers have sought to re-assure spectators over potential interruptions from climate change activists ahead of the 2023 competition.
Recent tennis events have already seen incidents of protests in the last year, with a man bursting onto the court and setting his arm on fire during a 2022 Laver Cup match between Stefanos Tsitsipas and Diego Schwartzman in September. In addition, a French Open tie between Marin Cilic and Casper Ruud was suspended for 15 minutes when a protestor tied herself to the net.
Throughout 2023, sports events in the UK have also been delayed by climate change activists as the Grand National and the snooker World Championships have been affected by campaigners. But, speaking ahead of Wimbledon 2023, Chief Executive of the All England Lawn Tennis Club, Sally Bolton, said procedures are in place to keep attendees safe.

This post contains spoilers for "John Wick: Chapter 4" and the later "Harry Potter" films.
In "John Wick: Chapter 4," John Wick (Keanu Reeves) must reunite with his estranged family in order to finally rid himself of the High Table and remove the sizable bounty on his head. When he visits his family, however, he has a rude reunion with Katia Jovanovich, Wick's long-lost adoptive sibling who is played by none other than actor Natalia Tena. Clad in leather and covered in prison ink tattoos, Jovanovich is a leader of the Ruska Roma assassins last seen in "John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum."
Tena is a veteran of several high-profile film franchises and blends into her new tough role so completely that it's a little hard to place her at first. She makes a lasting impression in the supposed final fourth chapter of the series, and she may even turn up...

Spoiler Alert: Do not read ahead if you have not watched the Season 9, episode 4 of “The Masked Singer,” which aired March 8 on Fox.
How are we supposed to live without Michael Bolton? The pop crooner was the latest celebrity to be revealed on “The Masked Singer,” as he was voted off the show as the Wolf.
It wasn’t much of a mystery this week, given how recognizable Bolton’s voice is. Even singing the Doors classic “Break on Through,” everyone (mostly) agreed it was him. For Wolf, Robin Thicke, Nicole Scherzinger and Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg all named Michael Bolton. Ken Jeong went rogue and picked Richard Marx.
It was DC Superheroes night, and the episode opened with Nicole Scherzinger (dressed as the Catwoman), singing Bonnie Tyler’s “Holding Out for a Hero.” Her fellow panelists were also in cosplay: Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg as Harley Quinn, Ken Jeong as the Riddler and Robin Thicke as,...

A hero’s welcome was certainly waiting for Wolf on Wednesday night’s DC superhero-themed episode of “The Masked Singer,” but unfortunately, he was also the lone wolf contestant sent home at the end of the night. So, who was beneath the mask?
Well, the first sentence up above should be a clue, if you didn’t get to watch things live. But, Wolf had some clues delivered by some actual DC superheroes during his appearance, too. Both Helen Mirren and Zachary Levi appeared on the episode, in support of “Shazam! Fury of the Gods,” which hits theaters next week.
Competing against Gargoyle and Squirrel, both also newcomers to the show, Wolf entered the competition with absolutely zero clues in advance. No teases on social media, no sneak peeks, nothing. Even so, “Masked Singer” fans are devoted, and made guesses based on body type alone. And apparently, some folks thought Wolf could be David Hasselhoff,...

Fox’s The Masked Singer Season 9 Episode 4 brings three new masks to the stage. Last week, Medusa barely made it out alive after singing head-to-head against California Roll. Now, fans want to know the identity of the new singers — and they think they know who sings under the Wolf suit. So, who is The Masked Singer contestant under the Wolf mask? Here’s the best prediction.

Office Space, the 1999 cult-favorite comedy that helped millions of office drones express their frustrations with working life, is making a comeback.
Walmart, the massive U.S. retailer, is reviving the movie with a new ad campaign that uses the talents of actors Gary Cole, who played the infamous corporate manager Bill Lumbergh and Ajay Naidu, who played the rebellious tech worker Samir Nagheenanajar. Despite the fact that their workplace, home to the soul-enervating Initech, burned to the ground at the end of the Mike Judge movie, both are back on the job, doing many of the same things they did more than two decades ago.
“Office Space” is a movie that “wasn’t as well-received as it needed to be” when it was first released, says Naidu, in an interview. But thanks to “the advent of the DVD and the new ways of watching things, it spoke so deeply to...

To anyone not paying attention to industry news, it sure seems like DC Comics adaptations are doing great. Not only are The Flash, Stargirl, and Superman & Lois continuing the legacy established by the Arrowverse (even if not all of them are actually in the Arrowverse), but The Sandman has become a huge hit. But upon closer inspection, one realizes those do nothing to raise the esteem of Warner Bros.’ streaming service HBO Max. While the former three do show up on the service after premiering on The CW, The Sandman is a Netflix property, bringing acclaim to an HBO Max rival.
While this might be a disappointing reality for those who hoped that HBO Max would be the home for all things DC-related — after all Warner Bros. has owned DC Comics since 1969 — the third-party approach might be the saving grace for some highly anticipated series. We already know that the...

In 2022, many Americans are getting married later, or not at all, and never do we find ourselves as grateful for this cultural evolution than while watching “Game of Thrones” and “House of the Dragon.”
Sunday’s “Dragon” episode, “We Light the Day” celebrated the wedding of heir to the Iron Throne Rhaenyra Targaryen (Milly Alcock) to the powerful heir to Driftmark Laenor Velaryon (Theo Nate). The young and decidedly not in love couple are barely even related, a victory in all seven kingdoms, but their nuptials were far from uneventful, and not in a good way.
Back in “Game of Thrones” Season 1, it was observed that “A Dothraki wedding without at least three deaths is considered a dull affair.” This was uttered at Daenerys’ wedding to Khal Drogo (Jason Momoa), in a scene that very much depicted the nonwhite Dothraki as wild and barbaric. But the citizens of Westeros are...

From the moment it was published in 1928, D.H. Lawrence’s steamy romance of a commoner and artistocratic wife has met with outrage and enduring popularity. It was so scandalous an unexpurgated version never appeared until an obscenity trial in Britain in 1960 was won by the publisher of the uncut version, leading to 3 million more in sales — not to mention the several film and TV versions that have been tried throughout the years including a 1955 film that itself was subject to cries for censorship. Now French actress and filmmaker Laure deClermont-Tonnerre has given it a new whirl in an uninhibited and sexy, but quite respectable, version starring Emma Corrin (The Crown) as Connie, who marries happily into England’s upper crust only to have a raging affair with her husband’s new gameskeeper Oliver Mellors, played by Jack O’Connell. This thing, without the right and convincing chemistry between the two lovers,...

Actor, writer and director Diane Morgan was in her teens when she first tried her hand at improv, an experience which first gave the “very shy, very quiet” 15-year-old a chance to step out of her shell and play a different character.
“I think my whole world opened up, basically,” says Morgan of that moment, ahead of receiving Variety and the Edinburgh TV Festival’s 2022 Outstanding Achievement Award. “I’d always been completely invisible and then, suddenly, I was the funny one.”
So it was unsurprising when Morgan decided she would try to pursue it professionally, even if it wasn’t the most obvious choice for a girl from Bolton. “I always thought I’d make a career out of it, even though everyone was telling me I wouldn’t make a career out of it and that it was insane,” she recalls. “Because I was from Bolton, and, you know,...

Teen horror Red Rose arrived on BBC Three this week to ruin the sacred relationship between a youth and their phone. As if the internet wasn’t scary enough already, in Red Rose a sinister app appears to drive teenagers to commit suicide. Is it supernatural? Who’s behind it? Why? And who will it strike next? This Bolton-set chiller is refreshingly funny at the same time as being super dark. Created by Michael and Paul Clarkson who have horror pedigree as producers on The Haunting of Bly Manor, the show features a strong ensemble cast of scrappy Northerners who call their collective group ‘the dickheads’. Over eight episodes the mystery of Red Rose slowly unfolds with some big old twist right up to the conclusion. Let’s break down the big questions posed by that ending.

Nope, turns out man made. It’s not...

All but one of the tracks on Bob Dylan’s new album Together Through Life are co-written with Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter. It’s the most help he’s ever had on a single album, but hardly the first time Dylan has written with a partner. Over the past 45 years he’s shared credit with Tom Petty, Rick Danko, Sam Shepard, Carole Bayer Sager and even Gene Simmons and Michael Bolton. Here are the stories behind five of those collaborations.
