WiC Weekly: August 7-13
By WiC Staff
This week at WiC, we review Locke & Key, dive deep on The Sandman, and sort through a mounting pile of House of the Dragon hype!
What happened around WiC this week? So much! Let’s start with the new Game of Thrones prequel series House of the Dragon, which is set some 200 years before the original series. Still, a lot of families from that show are still around:

The Orville: New Horizons was one of the best things on TV all year. Please please PLEASE give us more:
The Orville's third season was a consistently excellent masterpiece, but the show's future remains up in the air. It deserves a fourth season! https://t.co/A1vmGGk1fS

George R.R. Martin is doing a lot of consulting on House of the Dragon, and he has some requests:
George R.R. Martin was perturbed that Game of Thrones cut something from his mythology, and asked that House of the Dragon put it back in. https://t.co/In0lBSAqet

The third season of Locke & Key is here! But was it worth the wait?
The third and final season of Locke and Key is out now on Netflix, and it is dull. Call the locksmith, lock the door, pick your metaphor. https://t.co/zkRbKPxgtQ

Game of Thrones was inspired by the real-life English Wars of the Roses. The prequel show House of the Dragon also has its roots in real history:

The Mandalorian season 3 is coming!
The Mandalorian star Giancarlo Esposito sounds very excited to return as the merciless Moff Gideon...although he'd also like to show off his softer side. https://t.co/A49dWNUSrJ
