Back To Frank Black
A Return To Chris Carter’s Millennium
Edited By Adam Chamberlain & Brian A. Dixon
Introductions by Chris Carter, Frank Spotnitz, and Chris Carter
Fourth Horseman Press
Release Date: October 15, 2012
Cover Price: $28.99

One of my favorite television shows of all time is Millennium. Created by Chris Carter following his success with The X-Files, Millennium follows former FBI profiler Frank Black (Lance Henriksen) journeying into the darker recesses of society as he tracks down criminals as a law enforcement consultant for the shadowy Millennium Group. The series zoned in on the dichotomy of light and dark / good and evil in society at the time, and in retrospect was a watershed moment in television for the abundance of procedurals and darker shows that would follow in a post-9/11 world.

After three seasons, the show came to an end, canceled by Fox, and leaving fans wondering what happened to Frank Black. In the many years that have followed, the fans of Millennium have never forgotten the series – and neither has Lance Henriksen, who has stated many times his hopes for a Millennium movie.

And that’s where Back To Frank Black comes in. [...]

A recent event was held for the world premiere of season three of HBO’s Game of Thrones, which the rest of us will get our eyes on when new episodes start airing on March 31st.

Speaking at the event, George R.R. Martin, the creator and author of the books on which the series is based, was asked about the other titles he may be working on for HBO after that recent two-year deal he signed.

He understandably could not speak much about what he was working on, but Martin did talk about the possibility of a Game of Thrones prequel series. Find out more about it below. [...]

Two of my favorite things in the whole wide world, joined together as one.

This new video takes the grandfather and grandson part of the timeless fairy tale classic, The Princess Bride, but instead of the grandfather (played by Peter Falk) reading The Princess Bride to his grandson (played by Fred Savage), he instead reads him book one in George R.R. Martin’s “A Song of Ice and Fire” book series, A Game of Thrones, accompanied of course by footage from the HBO series.

The results are quite enjoyable, and you can check out the video below. Be warned, however, that the video contains major spoilers if you’ve not read book one or seen season one of HBO’s series. [...]
