While we felt as though the writing was starting to be on the wall for some time regarding the release of George R. R. Martin’s The Winds of Winter, it has unfortunately been confirmed as of this weekend: There will be no book in the hands of A Song of Ice and Fire fans prior to “Game of […]
It’s the new year, and here at CarterMatt that primarily means one thing: It’s time for a new feature! What we’re going to be doing throughout the month is looking at TV Underdogs, or people who are incredible deserving of far more love and screen time than they have received. These are people with great […]
Today is the big conclusion for our 2015 CarterMatt Awards, and we’re closing things off with a pair of awards celebrating overall series and their specific accomplishments. For this article, we’re beginning with a discussion of Most Surprising Moment.
