Q: I was really impressed with the guy who played Khal Drogo on the first season of "Game of Thrones." What's he doing now?
Jason Momoa's star has been consistently rising in recent years.
He had a somewhat inauspicious introduction as a regular in the last two seasons of the increasingly laughable drama "Baywatch" from 1999 to 2001. Things heated up for him about 10 years later, though, with his role on "Game of Thrones," the most talked-about series on TV, as well as the lead in the high-profile "Conan the Barbarian" reboot (2011).

Q: How do they decide who gets which partner on "Dancing With the Stars"?
The exact calculus involved in who is paired with whom in "Dancing With the Stars" is a mystery, but it is the show's producers who get to do it.
It even seems that the dancers know little more than we do.
When pro dancer Derek Hough was asked by "Entertainment Weekly" why he was paired with actress Jennifer Grey in the show's 11th season, he said, "I wish I knew how the producers paired people. If anyone knows, please tell me."

Q: Will "Justified" come back for a season 5? It is the best show on TV these days!
Actually, the season that just ended in April was the fifth, but there will be another, which will definitely be the last.
"A lot of it was just figuring out how much story we have left," series creator Graham Yost said after the announcement of the show's impending end. "Our biggest concern telling these stories is that we don't run out of stories and start repeating ourselves. ... It really felt, in terms of the story of Raylan Givens in Kentucky, six years felt about right."
