Well @avclub-0a7d7a81e8e3a20e4c34748e98ef45f6:disqus now I feel bad about being a bit dickish in my response to you on another thread here just a few minutes ago.

Authority? I have more faith in those who have written for the character that you and I have both come to like than someone I don't know at all, and that's bowing to authority and not common sense?

You can't place that definitive a label on Britta. And need i remind you there's been less turnover on the staff this year than in years previous so I would wager, them having been responsible for creating this character of Britta, that they might have a better handle on her than you .

Oh for the love of god, we don't see every weekend of their entire lives. For all we know the only two weekends she's spent away from the kids are for the convention and camping.

@avclub-e273345925b06f7a3d2aba558d8345f6:disqus did you roll your eyes whenever Harmon had Abed make a meta comment?

That's the kind of little thing I love and miss about the show. They chose a name, they stuck with it, and they called back to it time and time again. "…he ate a whole thing of candy beans."

Taking pride in what one does is about as popular these days as surgery without anesthetic, unfortunately.

Honestly that was my first guess, and it is definitely a Rabin thing to do

Not to mention she got trained on a tiny little bravo's sword, Needle, much thinner and lighter than the longsword she had to try and handle in the ep.

Kyra, a girl from Winterfell, is the one who tried to help him escape.

Ramsay likes to hunt two-legged prey. They most definitely made note of this in the books with regards to Theon and a girl named Kyra helping him "escape", and his wife he pretty much locked up in a tower with no food or anything, so she ate her fingers out of desperation.

Yeah I'd have to think since 4 and 5 take place near simultaneously they'll just combine those two books into seasons 5 and 6. Otherwise you'd be pretty much discarding half of your cast for an entire season.

I thought we caught a brief glimpse of a flaming sword in the Hand's Tourney in season 1, and I just assumed it was Thoros cameo, much like Dondarrion's was.

@avclub-babd6d735fefaf6f0848082a3a5785de:disqus (love the username) - I guess I did kind of forget how there were great parts of the 4th season. For some reason those are eps, while I liked, I just haven't watched as often. I mean, when IASIP came out, I watched that 1st season soooo many times because I was working…

I actually thought it was Pierce in a tag to an episode, but now that you mention it, it might've been Leonard….

And a bang up job of it they did too. British Empire my ass.

I'd agree, if only because I'd like to think he stopped caring well before he made that dreck of a movie with Anne Heche .

Pshaw. Only pansies wait until they're *done* working

Naw man I'm with ya. I got hooked on Sunny when it started, but somewhere around the middle of season 2 or season 3, the show had evolved to a point where it wasn't really the same show. Now, the same can be said for plenty of shows, (The Simpsons), but I think it's pretty rare in general to prefer earlier seasons of…

Without Happy Endings, I have no idea where the next good NBA joke will come from. The threesome with the Van Gundy brothers bit was great, and Jane's rant on the legitimacy of LeBron's title in season 3(?) was the biggest indicator to me that someone on the staff is a big NBA honk and had an axe to grind with mister…
