Game of Thrones (HBO) Season 2 Trailer

I heard 3 horns blow at the end of the trailer! Anyone who read the books should know exactly what that means! This should be a interesting season for sure. Based on this trailer, they are moving forward with A Clash of Kings. I still don’t understand why they didn’t call the series “A Song of Ice and Fire” and subtitle it each season with the book name. That is probably my only complaint. HBO has truly done justice to such an amazing piece of literary work. Cant wait until April 2012! Winter is COMING!

American Horror Story (FX)

American Horror Story is perhaps one of the most disturbing and creepy television shows I’ve seen in awhile. The unexpected plot twists and “WTF” moments definitely keep you on the edge of you seat and wanting to know more. Every character has a different story to tell, and the relationships between each one of them keep the audience interested and engaged as the series moves forward.

As the season has progressed however, I have noticed that it is slowly losing it edge. I don’t know why exactly, but the plot and story line have seemed to become more predictable, and the “shock” factor is not anywhere near the same as it was earlier in the season. Perhaps they are already running out of ideas. Despite its flaws, the series has hooked me deep enough to see this season to its conclusion. I am truly hoping for as strong finish because it definitely has the potential to be great.

American Horror Story follows the Harmon family, a family of three who have moved from Boston to LA for a fresh start but end up living in a sinister haunted house instead. From producers Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk comes the intriguing, erotic and scary story of life within the haunted house.

Merlin (Syfy Imagine Greater)

I’ve been keeping up with the Merlin series on BBC since its inception back in 2008 and I’ve been hooked since. Alot of people give the series flack for not following the more “traditional” Arthurian legend, but I’ve actually enjoyed this modernized version of it. The cast is good if not superb, and I really think this series is geared with the entire family in mind. If you have not caught the series yet, I highly recommend that you catch it on Netflix before watching Season 4 which is set to be released in the USA on the SyFy Channel January 6,2012.

Synopsis (syfy):

Merlin is a drama series which updates the story of the infamous sorcerer of Arthurian legend for a new audience.

The mythical city of Camelot, in a time before history began. A fantastical realm of legendary beasts and mysterious peoples. A dangerous world in which magic has been banned by the ruthless tyrant, Uther Pendragon. When Merlin, a young man gifted with extraordinary magical powers, arrives in the kingdom, he quickly makes enemies, including the heir to Uther’s crown, the headstrong Prince Arthur.

But guided by Uther’s wise physician, Gaius, Merlin is soon using his talents not just to survive but also to unlock Camelot’s mystical secrets. As he does so, he discovers that his destiny and that of the kingdom’s young leader in waiting, Arthur, are inextricably linked.

Starring Colin Morgan as Merlin, Bradley James as Prince Arthur, Anthony Head as King Uther, Richard Wilson as Gaius, Katie McGrath as Morgana and Angel Coulby as Gwen, Merlin is an imaginative and enthralling new twist on a legend that is as old as time.
