Oh glorious day! HBO has finally revealed the date for the Season 5 premiere of Game of Thrones, and we can finally shout to the world: CLEAR YOUR CALENDARS ON APRIL 12! George RR Martin’s beloved fantasy series will air at 9 PM ET, bringing all of our favorite characters who haven’t been brutally murdered along the way back to our homes, as well as some new faces, including veteran actor Jonathan Pryce and Alexander Siddig, who starred on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and some other far-less-important shows and movies that have aired since then.

But the great news doesn’t stop there. HBO has also announced that airing right behind Game of Thrones on April 12 will also be the season premiere of Silicon Valley at 10 PM ET. Not enough for you greedy hounds? How about Veep airing right behind that at 10:30 PM ET?

You spoil us, HBO, and I have a feeling you know that.
