An Emma Frost-y Reception: Fox Reveals Why It Chose 'The Gifted' Over Hellfire Club Adaptation
For those of us who are a certain age, nothing will ever hold a candle to the technicolor triumph that was '90s classic X-Men: The Animated Series. However, thanks mainly to Bryan Singer, 20th Century Fox has brought those magnificent mutants to our screens across a whole host of cinematic outings. From the good (X2), to the bad (Apocalypse), and even the ugly (Origins) we have "Marvel-ed" at the #XMen, but then Fox decided that storming the box office just wasn't enough and opted to take over our TV boxes as well.

Four TV Character Deaths That Made Viewers Say Goodbye Forever
Television shows live and die by their ratings — and so, unfortunately, can their characters. While TV deaths often happen for understandable reasons (a storyline demands it, or an actor wants to leave a series), occasionally they seem like shock value only to boost tune-in. But if a beloved character is written out of a series, fans may respond by fleeing like rats off a sinking ship.

Dame And Fortune: 'Game Of Thrones' Crew Discuss That Death And Season 7's Best Scene
On HBO's Game of Thrones, death is inevitable — it is pretty much the whole show's mantra — however, some deaths still hit us harder than others. After seven seasons of murder and mayhem, you would've thought that we'd be used to seeing our favorite faces perish before our eyes, but alas, just like Tyrion Lannister reaching things on a high shelf, it never does get any easier.

Dorne To Be Wild: 'Game Of Thrones' Actor Confirms They Won't Be Back In Season 7
As HBO's Game of Thrones flies its dragons toward the halfway point of its seventh season, all is not well in the Seven Kingdoms. We may have only had three episodes, but so far there has been nautical nonsense, incestuous intimacy, and a meeting of the messiahs that was some 21 years in the making. However, among all the battles and bastards, we have already started waving goodbye to some of our series regulars to make room for the show's endgame.

'Hawaii Five-0' Boss Defends Diverse Cast, Says Stars Were Offered 'Unprecedented Raises'

Bros Before Thrones: 'Game Of Thrones' Stars Discuss That Big Meeting
Over the past seven seasons of Game of Thrones, there have been some truly spectacular pairings. From Arya and the Hound to Brienne and Tormund, Tyrion and Jorah to Varys and Littlefinger, the show is known for its bromances and romances. However, will any singular scene ever top the eventual meeting of Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen?

Red And Buried: 'Game Of Thrones' Star Knew They Were Leaving A Year In Advance
Unless you can pop a smoke baby out of your lady parts and are some sort of Red Priestess — or apparently The Hound — seeing the future of Game of Thrones is a privilege reserved for the likes of George R.R. Martin or showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss. That being said, nabbing yourself any role on HBO's Ice and Fire saga can assure you of two things: the chance of some Hollywood notoriety, and a pretty finite career on the show.
