Prepare to have a geekasm of note. Joss Whedon (the same director who brought the Avengers last year and TV series like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel) is back with a new series called Agents of SHIELD.

Agents of SHIELD Agents of SHIELD Trailer Released

The series is based on the Marvel Comics organization S.H.I.E.L.D. It will be produced by Marvel Television and will be set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It will also share continuity with the films in that franchise. The series will revolve around the character of Phil Coulson and Clark Gregg will be reprising the role. It’s basically about Agent Phil Coulson putting together a small team of SHIELD agents to handle strange new cases.  Agents of SHIELD will also feature appearances by  Ming-Na Wen, Brett Dalton, Chloe Bennet, Iain De Caestecker and Elizabeth Henstridge.

It’s about time that someone fills the gap in the TV Schedule that Heroes left when it was cancelled. I’m keen to see what happens in this series. I’m thinking that it might just be one of coolest series to be aired in 2013. Agents of SHIELD will be premiering the USA in September 2013 on the ABC Television Network (which is owned by Disney). Check out the series preview below – prepare to be blown away.

Game of Thrones Season 3 is currently showing on television in the USA. The show (which is based on the “A Song of Ice and Fire” book series by George R.R. Martin) made its debut in 2011 and has become one of the most popular shows on television.

Game of Thrones has a whole bunch of hot female cast members. That totally gives the show bragging rights (and I’m pretty sure that many of you reading this article will agree with me). Today I’m featuring 5 Sizzling Hot Babes who have made their appearance on Game of Thrones at some point to show you why. If you’re reading this at the office, try not to drool on the keyboard.

Emilia Clarke: In the series she plays exiled princess Daenerys Targaryen who is one of the last surviving members of House Targaryen (the former rulers of Westeros). She’s the only daughter of King Aerys II Targaryen and she married Kahl Drogo and became Khaleesi (Queen) of his tribe (the Dothraki).

Definitely one of the most strong-willed women and one of best-developed characters on Game of Thrones in my opinion. Before the show she appeared in episodes of Triassic Attack and Doctors on television. She’s also appeared in two films in 2012 (Spike Island and Shackled). Early this year she also voiced a character on an episode of Futurama and appeared in a stage production of Breakfast At Tiffany’s at the Cort Theatre in New York City. This 26 year old actress has a bright future ahead of her. I’m pretty sure that we’ll see her in many films and TV shows in the future.  You can follow Emilia Clarke on Twitter via @_millyclarke_.

Natalie Dormer: In the series she plays the beautiful, smart and cunning Margaery Tyrell. She becomes part of a plan to take the Iron Throne from King Joffrey (a mission that involves marrying Renly Baratheon, the brother of the late King Robert).

This 31 year old actress (who hails from Berkshire, England in the UK) made her acting debut in the 2005 film Casanova. She’s also appeared in the 2007 film Flawless, the 2009 film City of Life, the 2011 film Captain America: The First Avenger and the 2013 film Rubicon. Besides this she’s also appeared in various TV shows including The Tudors, Rebus and Elementary.

She’s also done her fair share of acting on the stage in London. Her role in Game of Thrones may not be that massive, but she’s still one of the hottest women on the show.

Roxanne McKee: In the series she plays the recurring character Doreah (who is a former prostitute who works as a sexy servant to Daenerys Targaryen). She is tasked with teaching Daenerys how to best satisfy her husband sexually.

Roxanne McKee was born in 1980 in Canada. She has appeared in episodes of Eastenders: E20 and Hollyoaks on television in the UK. She has also appeared in a few music videos and in two films in 2012 (Lewis and Wrong Turn 5: Bloodlines). She’s definitely one of the hottest women on Game of Thrones. You can follow her on Twitter via @Roxanne_Mckee.

Lena Headey: In the series she is Cersei Lannister (the wife to King Robert Baratheon and the Queen of the Seven Kingdoms). She’s also the twin sister of Jaime Lannister and has an incestuous relationship with her brother which creates three children.

This 39 year old actress was born in Bermuda and made her acting debut in 1993 (when she appeared in four different TV shows and one movie). She has appeared in tons of films over the years since then, including the 2005 movie The Brother’s Grimm, the 2007 film 300 and the 2012 film Dredd. She is also cast in the upcoming sequel to 300 (which is entitled 300: Rise of An Empire). Besides Game of Thrones, Lena has also appeared in a long of TV shows and made for TV films over the years including Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles and White Collar.

Sibel Kekilli: In the show she plays Shae, a young prostitute serving Tyrion Lannister. Tyrion initially confines Shae but later makes her the handmaiden to Sansa.

Sibel Kekilli was born in 1980 in Germany. She made her acting debut in 2003 and has appeared in numerous German language films since then. She has won two Lola Awards for her achievements in acting (the highest achievement for acting in Germany).

Spock vs Spock Audi S7 Advert

in Television, TV Adverts

Star Trek: Into Darkness will be amazing movie audiences later in 2013, but that doesn’t mean that you have to wait for a dose (or double dose) of the Vulcan awesomeness that is Spock.

Just thinking of the new Star Trek movie brings me close to Geekasm. The film is one of the most anticipated films of the year and I’m not surprised that Audi have released a new advert for the Audi S7 featuring the old Spock (Leonard Nimoy) and the new Spock (Zachary Quinto) a few days ago.

Spock vs Spock Spock vs Spock Audi S7 Advert

The two legendary Spocks compete against eachother in the advert (which is fittingly entitled “The Challenge”). First they challenge each other at chess, then they race it eachother to the golf course. Whoever gets there last must pay for lunch. You’re probably wondering which one of the Spocks wins this challenge, so check out the video clip below to find out.

This Spock vs Spock advert is one of the funniest ones that I’ve seen in 2013. It’s awesome to see both of them in the same advert. What did you think of it? Leave a comment and let me know. Feedback is appreciated and welcome here.

If you’ve enjoyed viewing this advert, feel free to share this article with your friends on Facebook and Twitter. Sharing is caring after all.
