The popular podcast just landed a new deal with HBO.

‘Game of Thrones’ Season 7 revels in “The Spoils of War” with a dragon-sized action sequence to rival “The Battle of the Bastards.” Plus, have Stark family reunions lost their edge? Find out in our full review!

If there was giant wall of ice surrounding HBO to protect the network’s most precious properties, well, that sucker has come crashing down. The company has become the target of a recent cyber attack after The Night King a group of hackers reportedly infiltrated the network’s systems. And some secretive Game of Thrones data has allegedly leaked online.

I don’t want to alarm you, but Game of Thrones is a popular television series. People were pretty jazzed about Season 7’s premiere after production delayed new episodes to summer, and HBO reaped all the ratings benefit with a dragon-sized audience of over ten million viewers; its most ever.

HBO will give fans 24 hours to stream Season 1 of 'Insecure' on July 23 for free.

Since 2003, HBO’s Real Time With Bill Maher has been a divisive source of comedy and political commentary. If you believe the old adage that there’s no such thing as bad publicity, then the last few years have been particularly kind to the series; Maher has come under attack for his comments on an Ann Coulter protest at the University of California at Berkeley or his decision to give alt-right poster child Milo Yiannopoulos the chance to spread his message of intolerance to the masses. And while Maher has survived and even thrived at the center of controversy, his recent use of a racial slur on the show may be the final straw for even his most ardent supporters.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson may have cratered on the Florida beaches, but there’s always Los Angeles. That’s where HBO’s Ballers aims to take us in Season 3, as the Miami sports drama expands globally with a first full trailer.

Among the myriad reasons presented for Game of Thrones Season 7 shrinking to seven episodes over the usual ten, producers explained that the level of production could no longer accommodate so many episodes a year. Now, comments from star Iain Glen support that, noting that Season 7 will take just as long to film as full seasons.

Vice Principals Season 1 may be ending next month, but HBO NOW’s September slate also includes the series premiere of the network’s latest comedy offering, High Maintenance. For those interested in catching up with (or revisiting) newer films, HBO’s big September movie additions include The Revenant and Steve Jobs.

Any Game of Thrones fan has likely known for some time that Seasons 7 and 8 would mark the last for HBO’s adapted saga, though the network itself has expressed optimism for more. Now, HBO bosses dish on the plan to end with Season 8, as well what they’ve discussed with regard to a spinoff.
