Every Wednesday, the editors of WinterIsComing.net gather to talk about all things sci-fi, fantasy, movies, books and TV. It's Take the Black, and it's spectacular. This week, we still have House of the Dragon on the brain, so we talk a lot about that — both the previous episode and the episode to come this Sunday — but we also make time to discuss a couple other shows tickling our fancy these days, namely The Boys and Interview With The Vampire.

When it rains good TV, it pours good TV. Watch us break it all down below:

We even find a minute to discuss the ongoing mid-fest that is Star Wars: The Acolyte, and give it mild plaudits for stepping things up in its latest episode. Daniel is also reading some kind of book. Normally I don't stand for that kind of thing but he seems excited about it so I'm happy to play along. And of course, we blitz whatever news we couldn't get to in our signature WiC News Lightning Round.
