Take the Black Live: How to say goodbye to Game of Thrones
By Dan Selcke
Every Wednesday at 4:00 p.m. CST, myself and Culturess editor Cheryl Wassenaar sit down to discuss the latest in Game of Thrones and A Song of Ice and Fire news, and we stream it all from the Winter Is Coming Facebook page.
This week: endings. It’s becoming increasingly hard to ignore the fact that Game of Thrones is winding down. The cast is making its peace with it. How are we?

Our topics include:
- Sophie Turner, Emilia Clarke and Kit Harington are all saying their goodbyes to the show that has done so much for them. It’s starting to sink in. How are we going to say goodbye to Game of Thrones when it comes time? How have fans said farewell to their favorite shows before, and where does the Thrones fandom go from here?
- Pop quiz: How is watching Game of Thrones like being in a romantic relationship? I may have overstretched myself with the metaphors this week.
- There’s still some behind-the-scenes news to hit before this whole thing wraps up, including the latest spoilers from the infamously loose-tongued Nikola Coster-Waldau (Jaime Lannister), the return of fan favorite Lyanna Mormont, and a mysterious fog sweeping over King’s Landing.
- Both Game of Thrones and Westworld are skipping this year’s San Diego Comic-Con. Is there a conspiracy afoot?
We’ll be back next Wednesday at 4:00 p.m. CST with more Game of Thrones and A Song of Ice and Fire news. Plenty has already happened since we recorded this. Hope to see you on our Facebook page!
