'Manhunt: Unabomber' Is A Terrifying Look Into The Mind Of Domestic Terror
Terror is something that stretches across generations, locations, ages, races and religious affiliation. Terrorism is a broad term and in the broadest sense describes the use of violence as a means to create fear for some underlying purpose. Hundreds of millions of people over the centuries have been impacted by terrorists: sometimes in groups like ISIS, the IRA, the Taliban, the Ku Klux Klan and the LTTE in Sri Lanka. Other times these acts of terror are spawned by a single person: John Wayne Gacy, Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, or even the still unknown Zodiac Killer. Here in the United States we've witnessed our share of home-grown terrorists, which back before many of the recent attacks occurred, were simply called "serial killers".

"Jaime Is Such An Idiot": Nikolaj Coster-Waldau Has Little Faith In Jamie Lannister's Fate
Warning: This post contains spoilers for Game of Thrones Season 7, Episode 4. Jamie Lannister has had a rough few years in Game of Thrones, losing his hand, his father, and all of his children. In the latest episode, "The Spoils of War," his life may have finally taken a dive into the deep end (literally) after facing his most difficult test yet - a fire-breathing dragon. The show has delivered riveting battle sequences throughout the entire seventh season, but the battle in The Reach between the Dothraki and the Lannister/Tarly alliance truly captured the spectacle of a fantasy-inspired medieval battle. In particular, the scene proved to be a huge turning point for the Kingslayer, and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau has since spoken about what the epic confrontation means for Jaime Lannister.

American Patriotism In Comics: The Good, The Bad And The Indifferent
July 4th, Independence Day, is without a doubt one of the most fervently upheld days in American society. Sure, it's been slurred and has faced a backlash in recent years because of the actions of certain individuals, yet the tradition remains that the Fourth of July is a day to celebrate our country's freedom and sovereignty. Americans celebrate this idea by drinking beer, waving flags, shooting guns, shooting fireworks, celebrating with family, and visiting memorials to honor those who have fallen in war. However, patriotism isn't confined to simply our American culture, it's something that has permeated nearly every aspect of American entertainment.

As the series approaches its 13th season, nobody could have guessed that Supernatural would become one of the longest running shows in recent history, surviving 264 episodes, a network rebrand from The WB to The CW, and countless deaths for each character. Supernatural shows no signs of slowing down, with an upcoming Scooby-Doo crossover and a spinoff in the works.
