When: Apr. 6 to June 15, Sun., 9 pm ET, on HBO
What: It’s going to be hard to top the previous three epic seasons, but the show’s creators are promising to do just that, with new characters, old ones reappearing for a grab at glory or, perhaps more likely, considering events such as the Red Wedding, taking their turns dying violent deaths. Expect more dragons, stronger moves towards resolution of the encroaching White Walker menace and well-deserved comeuppance for more of the nastier characters, such as Mad King Joffrey.
