There was no topping the Red Wedding on last night's Game of Thrones Season 3 finale.

But there was plenty for the HBO epic to set up for next season, from Arya making her first kill to Ygritte shooting arrows into Jon Snow to Jaime actually returning home.

Elsewhere, Dany conquered Yunkai and received a hero's welcome; while Joffrey challenged Tywin and Walder Frey savored his bloody victory from the Sunday before.

Will he get his comeuppance next year? Will Joffrey finally receive his?

One day after the latest bashing of Matt Lauer online - a new report labels him dismissive and demeaning toward staff members - Today was dealt yet another blow.

The final ratings for May are in and they offer more proof that Good Morning America has taken over the top spot from its rival.

ABC's morning program averaged 5.7 million viewers/day last month a 10 percent increase from the same 31 days in 2012.

Today, meanwhile, dropped to 4.78 million, leading to ABC taking its largest lead in a Sweeps month since 1981.

CBS This Morning is even sort of closing in on Today. It rose 19 percent from the previous May and saw its daily viewership climb above 3 million.

The Doctor will soon be out.

Speaking to The Daily Telegraph this week, Matt Smith confirmed that he will soon exit Doctor Who, the iconic BBC series he joined as the titular hero in 2010.

Said the star, whose final appearance will be this year's Christmas special:

"Doctor Who has been the most brilliant experience for me as an actor and a bloke, and that largely is down to the cast, crew and fans of the show. I'm incredibly grateful to all the cast and crew who work tirelessly every day, to realize all the elements of the show and deliver Doctor Who to the audience."

There's no way… is there?

A documentary that aired over the weekend on Discovery's Animal Planet has raised new questions over the existence of mermaids.

Aptly titled Mermaids: The New Evidence, the series examines the myth and the rumors surrounding these aquatic hominids. It is a follow-up to 2012's Mermaids: The Body Found.

The program netted record ratings for the network, despite The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration stating that "no evidence" of these creatures has ever been found.

Still, the following video has apparently raised some questions for viewers:

Mermaids: New Evidence of Existence?

Where do you stand? Do mermaids exist?

Rumer Willis has booked a ticket to Rosewood.

The occasional actress (she recurred last year on 90210) will appear in at least one episode of Pretty Little Liars Season 4, according to The Hollywood Reporter, coming on board as a charity event organizer.

No other details are available at this time, but Willis will stop by the ABC Family smash in July.

The wildly popular series returns on June 11 and will air new episodes all summer long.

It will then introduce characters from its spinoff, Ravenswood, on the annual Halloween special. We can't wait!
