SUNDAY DVR SHOWDOWN: Game Of Thrones v. WrestleMania v. The Killing

It's gonna be one hell of a battle royal tonight on TV. There may not be enough DVR's in the house for some people, with a lot of real heavy hitters all demanding attention.


GAME OF THRONES makes its highly anticipated return to HBO at 9pm, kicking off its second season with "The North Remembers." There really isn't much to add considering how its been near impossible to avoid the buzz on the show's return. Needless to say, I will be re-adding HBO to my cable queue this afternoon.



WRESTLEMANIA 28, headlined by The Rock versus John Cena, hits Pay-Per-View with the first bell festivities scheduled for 7pm from Miami. Considering the very first WrestleMania I ordered as a young pup was WrestleMania IV, when it was still the good old WWF, and Hulk Hogan faced off against his former friend, the late "Macho Man" Randy Savage. Plus seeing numero 28 attached to the grandaddy of all wrasslin' events this year really makes me feel old. Also on the card is Triple H taking on The Undertaker (who has an undefeated WrestleMania 19-0 record), with special guest referee Shawn Michaels.



THE KILLING returns to AMC tonight, kicking off its second season at 8pm with a two-hour premiere,  "Reflections" and "My Lucky Day."




FOX has a new episode of FAMILY GUY lined up for tonight, "You Can't Do That On Television, Peter," at 9pm.


MAD MEN settles back into its normal time slot, after returning to AMC with record ratings last week after a seventeen month hiatus. "Tea Leaves" airs at 10pm following The Killing.


Last but not least is ABC's fairy tale fantasy at 8pm, ONCE UPON A TIME. In tonight's episode, "The Stable Boy," Barbara Hershey guest stars as Regina's wicked mother in flashbacks, teaching the Evil Queen-in-the-making exactly what being wicked is all about.
