The first Game of Thrones season 8 footage has arrived, featuring a monumental first meeting, and accompanied by more crack for the nerds.
During the Golden Globes, HBO has released their yearly teaser showing off the highly-anticipated slate of shows set to debut or continue (or conclude) in 2019. Most notably for almost everyone on Earth, the teaser contains the first Game of Thrones season 8 footage — a meeting between Daenerys, her new bae Jon Snow, and half-sister-but-actually-cousin Sansa Stark.
“Winterfell is yours, your Grace,” Sansa says, in a voice a chilly as the coming Winter. So, you know, that relationship is clearly off to a great start.
In addition to the footage from the final season of Game of Thrones, HBO has plenty of other material for content-thirsty nerds. The teaser reveals clips from Damon Lindelof’s adaptation of the legendary graphic novel Watchmen, as well as Big Little Lies season 2, and the hopefully-redemptive True Detective season 3. New seasons of Veep, 2 Dope Queens, and Barry are also on the way, along with new shows like Euphoria and Catherine the Great.
So TL;DR — even if you, for some reason, won’t be watching the final season of Game of Thrones, you will almost certainly want to renew that HBO subscription this year.
Or, you know, steal the password from your bastard brother’s new white-haired girlfriend who thinks she owns the whole house. She says she’s a queen, she can afford it.
