Winter is coming, and now we know precisely when. On Sunday night HBO premiered a new 90-second teaser for Game of Thrones' eighth and final season, and if that wasn't exciting enough for GoT fans, it ended with a date: April 14. That's when the first of the final six episodes will air, Variety reports. As for that teaser, it features three of the surviving Stark children reuniting in the crypts of Winterfell—but Bran is conspicuously absent. Many viewers are talking about why, and some have a wild theory involving Bran being the Night King. See Mashable for more on that. (Or see video of another memorable meeting coming up on season 8.)
