A silly original digital drawing of a modern-day Daenerys Targaryen if she were trying to achieve her birthright of becoming the Queen of Reality Television. In "Game Of Thrones" she went through trials by fire to become the queen she was. On "What's Up With Westeros?" she will undergo her own kardashianification to make it to the top!

A silly original digital drawing of a modern-day Sansa Stark if Game of Thrones were a reality TV show called "What's Up With Westeros?"

Let's face it. Throughout GOT/ASOIAF Sansa just wanted to be loved and admired in most any way she could. I think that a modern-day Sansa would totally seek validation through social media. Let Daenerys, Cersei, and Margaery fight over politics and the 'big picture'. Sansa's going to win the hearts of the media one selfie at a time!

Sansa's flower tattoo is a Jonquil (Narcissus jonquilla/daffodil), which is a reference to her obsession with the story of Florian and Jonquil.

Margaery doesn't want to be a president, she wants to be THE president! In the modern era she doesn't need to attach herself to some man to achieve her ambitions of ruling it all. She's going to be THE woman on top and Westeros had better just lie back and thank her for the opportunity!

Loras is a police officer with a big heart! And a another big hart! The hart being Renly Baratheon of course! Loras is 'growing strong' through the ranks of High Garden P.D. and bringing home roses to fashion model fiancé.

A silly original digital drawing of a modern-day Renly Baratheon who became a runway model. He's pictured as the top model at the Baratheon Family's annual charity runway event: Open Hart. Renly is just happy to be born in a decade where the only 'beard' he has to worry about is the one on his face and not his fiancé's ambitious sister.

Imagine the scandal that Jaime could have kicked up if he had given a tell-all interview about the secrets he had hidden away in his pretty little golden noggin! It would have been reminiscent of Usher's "Confessions" with more chapters than R. Kelly's "Trapped in the Closet"! Just without any singing; that should be left to Rhaegar or Podrick if you're in the middle of a crisis.

Petyr Baelish is riding the tide of chaos like a tsunami! It might start with banks, used car lots, and night clubs but it'll end with Littlefinger at the top of the ladder. 

Part of Baelish's spiel to encourage clients to file for bankruptcy: "Filing for bankruptcy is like finding yourself in bed with an ugly woman, best close your eyes, get it over with. Cut her throat. Be done with it." And he wonders why he's under police investigation.

If there's one thing that Olenna Tyrell is good at it's telling other people what they're doing wrong. Being able to criticize and insult people for a living was the best thing that ever happened to her. (She does NOT offer refunds to clients who drop out of her bootcamp due to hurt feelings or nervous breakdowns.)

Hide your wives and hide your husbands 'cause Oberyn's in town! He and Ellaria are living their best vagabond lives while spreading their unique kind of free-love. They'd almost be hippies if it weren't for their love of poisons and bar fights! Honestly, frequenting Hooters is practically 'family-friendly' for Oberyn. 

On the stall-walls of every Hooter's bathroom in Westeros is written "For a good time, call Oberyn!". Who wrote it? Oberyn Martell himself, obviously!

On this episode of "What's Up With Westeros?" we're dealing with restless spirits! We've been to High Heart, Harrenhall, and The Nightfort, now we're in Winterfell looking for the Ghost of Lyanna Stark. Yes, Lyanna, the She-Wolf whose disappearance is credited with sparking a rebellion--at least according to some people *cough cough* Robert Baratheon...

They say when you visit the crypts of Winterfell, if you stand still and listen closely, you can still hear the chilling noise of her ghostly wailing...oh wait. That's just Arya trying to sing The Bear And The Maiden Fair...never mind...

Sandor Clegane got tired of being a bodyguard for entitled little twerps real fast. He decided to fund his chicken addiction...I mean appreciation...by becoming a television bounty hunter. He'll take any job (so long as there is no fire of any kind involved). And yes, his badge has a chicken on it. What's it to you?

This is What's Up With Westeros? Teen Mom Edition. Gilly is just trying to be the best mom she can be for Little Sam. That means that she's hitting up playgrounds, setting up play dates, and getting way too much exposure to the Little Einsteins theme song. She lets Shireen Baratheon babysit Little Sam while she attends classes at Moletown Community College while Samwell goes through the healing program at Citadel University's campus at the Wall.

Gilly's flower tattoos are of a variety of Stock flowers that are commonly called Gillyflowers.

Cersei had the looks, the ambitions, and the right connections to launch her Hollywood career from a young age. She became known as The Golden Lioness Of The Silver-Screen. How did she keep getting blockbuster roles when her career was rife with scandal and mediocre acting skills at best? Well, as they say, what happens on the casting couch stays on the casting couch. 

Her latest movie was the genderbent retelling of how the Lannisters aquired Casterly Rock. She snagged the leading role of Lanna The Clever without any bribery or coercion of any kind! Of course that might have been because the film was written, produced, and directed by Tywin Lannister himself...

Jon Snow got internet famous as a joke. It wasn't even his own joke! Arya started taking surprise pictures of him and posting them on her blog. Once his prettiness was exposed to the internet there was just no stopping it. Catelyn was enraged that Jon was more famous than her children but Jon, the beloved himbo, didn't even know the blog existed. Arya Underfoot, chaos gremlin at-large, strikes again!
