Well, without giving too much away I can see the end of the next big story arc from the comics being the endgame for the show.
If they were to go that route, the show would end in another season or two (or as AMC would put it: Season 7 and the "final season," both stretched out over 3 years). However, seeing how far

I've seen every single Simpsons episode (even the new ones, mostly out of a misguided need for completionism) and a lot has happened to it.

Christ that was bad, even by new Simpsons standards: pretty much everyone acting out of character, Family Guy-level jokes, triple-dream cop out at the end, desperate pop culture reference to Girls… yeesh. It's episodes like these that make me understand why Shearer wanted to leave the show.

This was definitely one of the more disappointing episodes so far. It has it's moments (Werner Herzog's cameo and speech about Earth penises, the How It's Made parody, How Did She Get There?) but overall it just felt really forced and the improv was REALLY obvious this time from the get-go (it sounded like Roiland was

Here's a few I say semi-regularly:

I think the shot at 2:24 is either Vogel or Martinez's wife and kid. The trailer just has that shot cut together with Watney looking at a screen to make it seem like he has something to lose/something to fight for/yadda yadda power of love you get the point.

It was never explicitly stated in the books, Sam read something about it in an old book in the library of the Night's Watch. However, since Valyrian steel is so incredibly rare (only Jon, Brienne, and Tommen are shown to own one) and the secret to making it was lost after the Doom of Valeria and the extinction of the

A Nintendo theme park has a been a dream of mine since I was a wee lad so I have a few ideas for rides that immediately come to mind:

Well, we're not getting Manderly and his pies, so at the very least I hope the show has Doran's speech

I hope he just loses his hand/arm so he can be twinsies with Jaime

It wasn't until Arya brought it back up that I realized the significance of The Hound being left to die on "a Mountain"

Is it just me, or is there an inverse function in the newer seasons where the better the couch gag = the worse the episode?

Cersei's main motivation is always power - in this case, maintaining it. The prediction from that weird gypsy woman is making her paranoid and she wants to ensure that no one takes that power from her.

One really interesting omission from the show was the line in Maggy the Frog's prophecy from the books: "Gold shall be their crowns and gold their shrouds,.. And when your tears have drowned you, the valonqar shall wrap his hands about your pale white throat and choke the life from you." Now does this mean there's

Mostly ignoring Convergence mainly because it seems like a filler-event DC is putting out to compensate for most of their main titles going on hiatus for 2 months (I'm planning on just getting Shazam, Superman and Speed Force).

I feel like this episode just solidified my suspicions that the series finale will be Dennis going full-on psychopath and murdering the gang

Well they kind of already copied a lot from the Batman movies and comics, think about it: Dead parents, a no-kill policy, is always really broody and talks in a raspy voice, he went on a journey of self-discovery that turned him into a vigilante, pretty much everyone knows his secret identity, his sidekick wears red,

He has a whole bunch of Lazarus Pits around the world and it takes a while to really kill him, but even then he usually has a way of coming back because comics

Nah, they're just replacing Batman with Ollie at this point. Ra's has tried to get Bruce to take over for him before since he's one of the few people he has a sense of sincere respect for (not to mention Bruce was somewhat close to becoming his son-in-law at the time).
On a completely unrelated side note: If the

It's the League of Assassins - they never stay dead
