Being leader of the free world sure has its perks, especially if you want to make badass reaction GIFs.
Just ask the POTUS. The most productive couch potato in America Barack Obama who cites his all-time favourite TV shows as The Wire and Homeland, asked HBO Chief Executive Officer Richard Plepler if he could give him advance copies of HBO hits Game Of Thrones and True Detective at a state dinner for French President Francois Hollande in Washington last week, per the New York Times.
True Detective is currently careening toward its whodunnit? grand finale in increasingly unexpected ways, five episodes, 137 think pieces and 42 artfully arranged beer cans deep into its eight episode run of exasperated Woody Harrelson expressions, Southern gothic horror, and surprisingly cogent drunk guy existentialism, while Game Of Thrones’ season four premiere doesn’t drop til April 2nd, meaning the Obama DVD player is now the Reserve Bank of spoilers if we assume his request was met, which we do. Who says no the the President?
Answer? No one.
