WINTER IS COMING: Sophie Turner, who plays Sansa Stark on
Game of Thrones, successfully persuaded her parents to
let her adopt the dog that played Sansa's Dire Wolf. (And when so many shows are weighed down by child actor performances--e.g.,
Once Upon A Time--it's really impressive how both
GoT and
Mad Men have either gotten extraordinarily lucky or had extraordinarily good casting for the youth roles.)
