OMG YOU GUYS. We all need to gather 'round and hold each other. For there will be no new Game of Thrones episode this Sunday, thanks to the holiday weekend, when everybody should be out barbecuing and hanging out with friends instead being of holed up inside in the living room tuning in to a geeky, disturbing fantasy series. But seeing as the next episode, "The Rains of Castamere," is promising to be one of the craziest and dramatic episodes ever -- yeah, I'll take the living room, please!
"The Rains of Castamere" is reportedly going to reveal the much-hyped-up Red Wedding, and fans who have read A Storm of Swords know about the ridiculous twists that are about to go down. If you thought the season-defining moments with Jaime Lannister, Daenerys Targaryen, and Jon Snow were amazing -- well, needless to say, June 2 is going to be a night all Game of Thrones fans will remember.
Darn you HBO producers for having us wait a whole extra week before this episode! Darn you to heck.
I'll get into all the insane crap that will most likely go down in "The Rains of Castamere" next week, so as of right now, here is some Game of Thrones stuff to keep you (somewhat) occupied until the oh so fateful day of June 2. Enjoy!

- Watch the entire fourth season of Arrested Development on Netflix -- hey, maybe this timing isn't so bad after all.
Or you could just watch the preview for episode 9 over and over and over and over again. It's going to be a sad Game of Thrones-less Sunday, isn't it?
What will you do with yourself on Sunday night since there's no new Game of Thrones episode?
