HBOGame of Thrones: Rejoice, ye geeks and good TV fans! After picking up 2.2 million viewers in its premiere (and 4.2 million over three separate airings Sunday night), HBO has granted our beloved Game of Thrones a second-season renewal. Season two will be based on book two of George R.R. Martin's A Song of Fire and Ice saga, A Clash of Kings.
Plus, CBS cancels a new show, and two of your favorite TV characters are doing it up against a wall, and we have photos. Because we're dirty like that:
Chaos: CBS' espionage drama Chaos, which starred fan-faves Tim Blake Nelson, Eric Close and Freddy Rodriguez, has been yanked by the Tiffany Network after just three low-rated episodes. Police drama Flashpoint will air in its 8 p.m. time slot beginning May 6.
All My Children and One Life to Life: Venerable vacuum cleaner manufacturer Hoover is pulling advertising from ABC in protest of their cancellation of AMC and OLTL, and rallying fans of the save-the-soaps cause at their Facebook page.
Luck: Speaking of HBO, the first video from their premium cable network's upcoming Dustin Hoffman-starring horse-racing drama Luck has hit the streets. Check it:
Nikita: Hello, Mikita fans. Would you like to see Maggie Q and Shane West in flagrante delicto? Of course you would!
