Casting Black Game of Thrones

George R. Martin, creator of Game of Thrones, is missing out on a boatload of money by farming out the rights to his material to only one network. There should be countless permutations of the show: A Telemundo version in Spanish, an adorably censored Nickelodeon edition and an animated Cartoon Network take in the style of Adventure Time. Foremost on my list, however, would be an all-black adaption of Game of Thrones for BET. If I’ve been a good lad come Christmas and my dreams come true, these would be my choices for its cast.

Ned Stark—LeVar Burton, aka Geordi
Catelyn Stark—Halle Berry
Robb Stark—Chiwetel Ejiofor, aka that dick from Serenity
Sansa Stark—Gabourey Sidibe, aka Precious
Arya Stark–Quvenzhané Wallis, aka that girl from that movie that got that Oscar nomination
Cripple Stark–Emmanuel Lewis, aka Webster Papadopoulos
John Snow—Donald Faison, aka Turk from Scrubs
The Direwolves of House Stark—DMX’s pit bulls
