Also, factor in that Frankenstein's creator, Mary Shelley, was the daughter of Mary "Vindication of the Rights of Women" Wollstonecraft, you have clear evidence of progressive thinking.

To be fair, many viewers will never forgive him for killing Proteus and Van Helsing. I think it's just that the assault on Maude is his most recent horrible act so people are talking about it.

All Caliban needs is a damn fedora. And yeah, other actors shunned him, and when he first meets Victor he had just been beaten, but a lot of common folk in Victorian London had similar levels of abuse. Look at poor Brona coughing up a lung in a doorway and no one even looking at her. He could have asked for Vincent or

Back in the 90s I didn't find him attractive, but in this show? Come to mama. It also helps that Ethan is a good guy (as opposed to Caliban's "nice guy") and I've always liked characters who are determined to do the right thing.

Chandler's one of my faves. It's easy to overlook him because there are so many others who have louder charisma, but he's very compelling and I love how he's always striving to do the right thing.

Ugh, he's like the king of "Nice Guys". Pretty woman talks to him for 5 mins? He stalks her. He finds out she's got a boyfriend? He sobs and moans and then kills Van Helsing. Because he's owed a bride. Note that both Caliban and Proteus have demonstrated that the personality and free will exist in the resurrected, so

That was some serious geek pron there.

Oooh. Imagine the linguistic changes (or lack therof) in that…

I was having a major Jennifer Lawrence vibe myself.

True, true, Stamford Bridge was pretty awesome. Pity he didn't have time to really savor it until c-c-c-combo breaker William* of Normandy showed up.

Random tangent: I've always thought that the best Saxon king name was Harold Godwinson. He didn't achieve much beyond getting arrowed at Hastings, but the name just rolls off the tongue.

Oh dear, just don't blame me when she kicks yo ass.

Snerk. Could be worse. What if she were acting like Lady Stoneheart?

Good point, but the reducto-ad-absurdum bit at the end was unnecessary.

It would make sense to use killed humans as wights; they'd be like cannon fodder. An infant is a blank slate, so making them into an Other would create a more full-fledged member of their society.
If I'm proven wrong, I never said this (g).

Nah, he's the perfect dude for her. He can make her happy with zero risk of accidental pregnancy. She's too busy right now to get knocked up.

Yeah, we know that Margery isn't a molester but the surface similarity still is kinda weird. Perhaps as their friendship develops it will be less so.

Yeah, that bugged me. They could've had the translation in English in the cc or something.

Yeah, but that doesn't mean we can't criticize the fact that it exists. And if that is so, then the show makers need to stop being coy in interviews and just admit they're making torture porn. None of this it-totally-serves-the plot bs.

I find it distressing that it was too dark to see all his floofy glory.
