We wish this news had been more surprising than it actually is, considering Sunday's 'Game of Thrones' season 4 premiere, "Two Swords," once gain shattered HBO ratings records, while showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss already signed on for seasons 5 and 6. Still, because the sky is blue and obvious things are obvious, HBO officially opted to renew 'Game of Thrones' for a fifth and sixth season, carrying the war for Westeros all the way through 2016.
We've seen the Syfy development wheels turning a bit of late with last week's official pickup of the TV-adapted '12 Monkeys,' but this might be the cable network's most intriguing prospect yet.

Yesterday afternoon David Letterman shook up the late-night landscape once more with the announcement of his 2015 retirement from 'The Late Show with David Letterman,' however inevitable the exit might have been. The internet has been awash with gossip and replacement debates since, but has 'The Colbert Report' host Stephen Colbert emerged as CBS' clear frontrunner to take the 'Late Show' throne from retiring David Letterman?
It may yet be some time before 'Sons of Anarchy' begins roaring out details of its seventh and final season, but we can rest assured that at least two fan-favorite characters will be in it for the long hall.
