Excerpt from an Interview with George R.R. Martin - Rolling Stone, May 24, 2012

RS: Some people criticize the "sexposition" on the show - but your books have plenty of sex. Do you ever take heat for that?
Martin: I get letters about that fairly regularly. It's a uniquely American prudishness. You can write the most detailed, vivid description of an ax entering a skull, and nobody will say a word in protest. But if you write a similarly detailed description of a penis entering a vagina, you get letters from people saying they'll never read you again. What the hell? Penises entering vaginas bring a lot more joy into the world than axes entering skulls.

The 5 Most Annoying Kids on TV - The Huffington Post

Carl Grimes - Walking Dead

Carl is the most obvious choice for this list. Let’s be honest - how many times have you wished it was his entrails that were ripped out instead of Dale’s? It may not be fair to blame every obstacle faced by Rick and Co. on Carl, but his behavior alone is responsible for the death of at least two characters in the most recent season. And even though he may be the last kid on Earth, one feels hard-pressed to feel sorry for him when he spends all his time sulking beneath that over-sized cowboy hat. If and when (fingers crossed!) a walker finally does reduce him to a stumbling, drooling shell, I think I’ll appreciate his character infinitely more. What if they have zombie Otis come back to do the deed? What delicious irony.

Esquire Q&A Excerpt: William Shatner, May 2012

Scott Raab: Do you believe in an afterlife?
William Shatner: [Long Pause]
Raab: Should I rescind the question?
Shatner: Rescinding is bad. That means you frightened yourself. I'm giving it some thought. What do you mean by afterlife?
Raab: Some alternative to oblivion.
Shatner: Yes, there's an alternative to oblivion. But I don't think it's conscious. We're all embers from the same fire. I like that image. There has to be a unifying theory. I think there is a continuity of some kind, that my love for my wife will go on past the death of my body. Nature is perfect.
