Usually a show needs to hit a certain amount of seasons + have a devoted enough fanbase to get a "pity" season for a finale (ie, Chuck).

It was too close in theme to the show 'Hostages', which also did shitty. "Guilt" by association can always doom shows/movies.

Qualifiers were like a month before TI3 last year, weren't they?

Belichek likes to amass picks like Smaug amasses gold.

Well, there is always an initial rush due to compendium purchases from everyone. It will slow down a lot over the next couple days, although the "point buy" thing will ensure the prize pot keeps growing at a steadier pace than the original compendium (since points can grab you rewards and a...

Even though the Black Death set is more or less a Pudge arcana already, he will probably win in voting ;/ I'm sad there is no "vote for the next hero" tier. Valve, why do you hate Techies so much???

Prize pot has shot up pretty fast, though. What was the base pot? 1.5mil?

ARDM mode? Awwwww yeah. For Arcana, I wouldn't mind a Mirana one ;p

They will hint at Skye, but I'm guessing it will be more of a teaser for next season. I'm guessing S2 will revolve around Raina trying to recruit Skye or at the very least trying to uncover her origins. The whole "hidden inside" thing will end up relating to the Inhumans and the fact...

Officially cancelled now

Only downside to using that strat in pro games is all the heroes are clustered after the snowball ends, which would be very bad if the other team picked heroes that absolutely destroyed grouped heroes.

Bleh, it wants me to login with my cable provider email...which I have never used ever ;p

I wouldn't be half surprised if Raina left them some help.

Ball hooking ;o

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...
