2019 is even more tantalizing, thanks to HBO! The network just released a short teaser, featuring bits from upcoming TV shows, new seasons and documentaries, and gave us what we wanted: the first glimpse of Game Of Thrones final season!
Triggering a farrago of emotions, HBO shared the trailer for the 2019 line-up and here are a few things you may have missed in the literally blink and miss shots.
1. The clip confirms that Jon Snow indeed returns to Winterfell. The short scene features him hugging Sansa Stark implying their much-awaited union at their home, but Sansa’s haunted stare tells another story altogether. That’s not all, we also catch a glimpse of the Jaime Lannister, who was last seen leaving Kings Landing, teasing an interesting plot for him ahead. GOT season 8 is expected to return in May 2019.

2. The effervescent Meryl Streep is coming to Big Little Lies Season 2, and finally, we get a proper look at her character, Mary Louise Wright, aka Perry’s mother. Streep’s character comes to Monterey after Perry’s death both out of concern for her grandchildren and to look for answers and we bet secrets will begin to spill out sooner than you know.
