TV: The Book co-author and Law & Order Fantasy Draft winner Alan Sepinwall is back to talk about Season 7 of Game Of Thrones. Should the show be moving faster, plotwise? Who's going to end up "winning" when all is said and done? Which characters are human memes? And is Ed Sheeran a big baby for deleting his Twitter? After considering these questions, we went Around The Dial with The Challenge, Friends From College, and Ozark before picking off another Canon submission with Justified's "Decoy." Talented (future) parents were our winners, The Biggest Loser was...well, that, and we played with perceptions of opening-credits fame in a hotly contested Game Time. Make sure you pick a rubber mask with holes for your earbuds: it's an all-new Extra Hot Great.

FX fills Fargo's time slot with Snowfall, John Singleton's drama series about the birth of crack, and Nick Rheinwald-Jones joins us to talk about it because he lives in Los Angeles and definitely NOT because he is a crackhead. Sarah explains why she's not a crackpot for thinking cable networks should just leave swear words in movies. Around The Dial takes us through Lifetime's movie Tiny House Of Terror, Younger, GLOW, and Prime Suspect - Tennison. Hannah makes her case for our inducting the series premiere of Catastrophe into The Canon, and after naming the week's Winner and Loser, it's on to a poetic Game Time. Light it up!
