Game of Thrones returns Sunday night, and the only people who know for sure what will happen in season seven are on HBO’s payroll (and silence can be bought).

‘Tour de Pharmacy’ Offers a Fun Ride with Familiar Faces
Lance Armstrong’s drawn out admission to doping stunned the world of competitive cycling, inspired a memorable South Park episode, and, a bit more recently, provided ample material for HBO’s new mockumentary, Tour de Pharmacy, in which the disgraced champion also appears. Five years after his Oprah confessional, Armstrong clearly hopes to show that he, too,…

April is shaping up to be a wonderful month for Bryan Fuller fans: in addition to next week’s premiere of American Gods on STARZ, Wonderfalls and Hannibal alum Caroline Dhavernas stars in Lifetime’s latest scripted drama, Mary Kills People, which follows the morally murky actions of a doctor who moonlights as an angel of mercy….
‘Jungletown’ = Real Hippies of Kalu Yala
After only a little more than a year at the controls of the channel formerly known as H2, hipster entertainment network Viceland has produced what might be the most fascinating thing on television.
