Game of Thrones Season 6 Trailer: How the Mighty Have Fallen!

We received a brief teaser glimpse of Game of Thrones Season 6 back in December but now the first full trailer is here to whet your appetite for the April 24 premiere, and it"s got us hungrier than Ramsay Bolton in front of a plateful of of pork sausage.


We are so, so sorry for that analogy.


Anyway, the clip opens on the image of Jon Snow…lying dead in the snow.


Maybe Kit Harington wasn"t lying when he said he"s definitely done with the show. (Just kidding, he"s totally full of it.)


From there we see Daenerys reduced to the level of a commoner amongst a tribe of wandering Dothraki after being captured at the end of last season.


The High Sparrow, sounding very much like the Bernie Sanders of Westeros, tells someone off-screen, :Everyone of us is poor, impoverished, yet we have the power to overthrow an empire."


Tyrion ominously warns of the dangers of playing "the great game," and a vengeful Cersei declares, "I choose violence," which after the way she was kicked around last season, should surprise absolutely no one.


The whole thing plays out over a stripped-down cover of Chris Isaak"s "Wicked Games," yet somehow isn"t incredibly corny corny.


Watch Game of Thrones online at TV Fanatic to remind yourself of everything that"s gone down in the Seven Kingdoms to bring us to this moment.
