I'd blame the crummy 1st half of the season more than anything. People don't give shows a chance anymore...if ST:TNG launched today, that shit would have been cancelled by the end of the 1st season. The show has gotten much stronger on the last half, but the trick is trying to get those folks back.

The Civil War was fought because the South is derp. Derp is responsible for a great many things...everything from slavery to evangelical churches.

Ya, the Noah story in the bible is pretty much one of those universal story themes. Virtually every culture/religion on the planet (past or present) had an epic flood story. It was like the ancient version of the network TV police procedural: Every channel has one and although they make minor...

I'm assuming you live in Mass? Honestly the best solution for Logan is to bribe someone to drive you since having to park there rapes your wallet and Mass public transit sucks.

Ya, her impression of Simmons was pretty spot on ;p

Eh, comic book shows I usually give a bit more leeway to, since they involve all sorts of physics/biology related tomfoolery. However, it was clear that Ward intended to kill them. It wouldn't half surprise me if the cargo container had some sort of cushioning system that Fitz reveals he...

That youtube guy Astro always posts seems to always get confused about shows or totally misreads/misunderstands scenes. It makes me think it might actually be Astro himself lol ;p Anyways, good episode. It did a good job of demonstrating why Ward is so loyal to Garret: He was basically a...

She reveals that in the book when she is trying to throw Sansa to her death.

Until he sells to Disney

He would have been stupid on screen and people would have just made fun of it.

Honestly I think it's poetic justice for all the nostradouching that has been happening, to speak nothing of straight up spoilers.

I bet the answers for Coulson are in his fake grave based on that riddle.

Deal with it or stop watching. TV is a visual medium, thus "long game" elements have to be more concretely established or people start shitting about "deus ex machina" or bad writing if they are dropped out of nowhere. You don't have the benefit of tiny footnotes buried in text to fall back...

That part was in the book. Dany had it done as revenge for the crucified slaves.

Dany's brother was also the next in line and he was shit. Fake Aegon was a hedge against that, not Dany. Now that Dany is catching interest, Varys would have to account for that.

Ward is not a double agent. Why the fuck do people keep saying that? He has straight up murdered a ton of Shield agents, including 2 high ranking ones.

Maria doesn't work in the HR dept, she was there for a job interview.

If others/white walkers pwn Westeros, the whole king/queen thing will goto shit.

Dany will either die or be marginalized/treated like a typical Westeros female (ie, like a baby factory). I wouldn't be half surprised if Varys had a hand in it, either.

His daughter is Dany? Westeros is fucked ;P

Space mercury is deadly stuff...

The wealthy also used lead pipes to deliver water to their homes. Kinda helps explain why there was so much violent crazy in the upper classes ;p I recall reading an article that hypothesized that the spike in crime during the 60/70/80s was primarily due to lead concentrations that...

Maybe, but bondage Scarlett Johansson is pretty hot!

Martin chimes in about the Jaime scene. He does make the good point that the circumstances in the book were vastly different than the circumstances in the show, thus why a change is understandable. George R.R. Martin reacts to 'Thrones' adding rape scene | Inside TV | EW.com Looking...

Most of the people QQing about book changes have no concept that stuff on the page doesn't always translate to screen, either from the standpoint that it just isn't practical (Tyrion's lost nose becoming just a scar) or it just looks absurd on screen (Clown-pirate Daario).

He's doing the swagger showboat stuff, which teenager girls love. Taking down a mounted rider with a single dagger throw and a single sword strike, not flinching when arrows are fired, and then pissing to taunt the enemy fits that nicely.

My parents never read the books and guessing that Olenna did it, if for purely nothing more than the fact Joffrey's cup was next to her right before he got poisoned.

When news of the script first leaked, it was supposed to involve their son having been left on Earth by John + Aeryn to keep him safe, then he reunites with them. Son would be in his 20s or w/e. In the official comic continuation of the Farscape story, it was revealed the son had some powers...

Your idol has fallen!

Every season, people keep guessing someone is the Master or Rani.

Ya, if they can keep that level of play in TI4, they may be new favorites to win.

I went back to the chapter. Archmaster Marwyn is the one headed to Slaver's Bay and he is the one who warns Sam about keeping his mouth shut about magic and reveals the Citadel is the entity that has been working to destroy magic, but you're right, it doesn't imply Fake Pate or Sam are going...

There is absolutely nothing that can go wrong with this plan!

Navi was executing Team Liquid level shit in these finals. I hope they find their mojo for TI4. DK is just so good right now. I'd be very surprised if they don't take the top prize.

Create seed that can cross pollinate: People rage about corporation fucking up nature/playing god/rabble rabble Create seed that can't pollinate: People rage about corporate greed You aren't going to win either way in the realm of public opinion

It was the prologue in the Dance book. The guy Jaq changed into murders some kid and assumes his identity as part of some mission we assume. Since they are traveling to Dany/the dragons, we assume he may be targetting them. The slavers could definately afford a faceless assassin.

They could pick a_random_girl00 to be fake Arya, but they do need something plotwise that allows Theon to break free of Ramsey.

Did they ever even establish Jeyne Pool in the show beyond the pilot?

Sneak peak for next week shows that Patton agent wanting all of Coulson's team to use some ultra lie detector. Of course Ward and Skye look kinda horrified/nervous, although for dif reasons;p

SA is always horrible. At least with Russians you might get people who know what they are doing, even if they call you noob cyka.
