I hope you're right! But ever since she got murder superpowers and took out a banquet hall of people, something seems different. It could just be the compressed writing exaggerating her wild side.

Arya's inability to see a bigger picture outside of her own feelings and Jon's deathwish/over-confidence is gonna get someone killed in the same way Ned's left his family open to be killed. The Starks might be "good" people but except for Sansa & Bran (thus far) they push through life like a Lannister.

I really like your concluding point, the initial thing that got me hooked was the way the show disrupts the ideal of everyone winning. I would argue that it is rare for the priorities of a group to align if they don't already have a common goal and yet the "right" narrative is that you do your best to save everyone…

Very true! I wasn't advocating for anyone's morality because they all have done terrible things. However, to say that the Arkers are worse for killing their own when the Grounders were waging war because they could seems short sighted to me. If Lexa is the first commander to ever promote peace, I have trouble putting…

But if they didn't everyone on the Ark would have died years sooner because resources would have run out…

Even though this may seem logical to a fault, why is Clarke terrible for placing the priority on her own people whom she already knows can keep the bunker running? Outside of the sheer number of Grounders, what good is it to save them when they rely on antiquated rituals to decide survival rites? I know that sounds…

Actually outside of the structural premise, the show has no relation/mention of the movie. It's more like a Skins/Greek/Mean Girls blended with intelligent commentary on American social stereotypes. The student body is diverse and while the focus is on black characters, there are many characters of other ethnicity.…

Don't forget about The 100! (which proves the CW can handle a show with potential, even if they still slip up occasionally)

It was a pleasant surprise to see that six pack William unveiled.

Pablo has to die so we can follow other cartel lords in future seasons!

It almost feels like FTWD might want to focus on the villains while letting TWD be about "good" people surviving. Madison and Co. caused trouble at the lighthouse despite their intention to do good, Strand cut the girl and boy from the airplane loose because he wanted to, and Chris was seriously considering hurting…

I can see that, they have made some unnecessarily dangerous choices and Madison treating Alicia like a child isn't helping either. I guess I just don't mind the dumb things because these situations feel so impossible to actually comprehend. By factor of being post-society as we know it crumbling and tons of your…

I've got a question for this tough crowd: What are you expecting to see when you watch zombie media?

As a black man, I have found it pertinent to tell all of my white friends to have an opinion. We all live in America and we all are a part of what this country turns into, right or wrong. If you are unsure of something, ask! Silence is what allows bad things to happen and the more white people who speak up and become…

Does anyone else feel shades of The 100? I for one love watching people get pushed into corners, the scramble for survival can be so exciting.

So when Oliver dies or if Jamal dies, is that a trope? Because to expect a character to live because of who they happen to bang seems short sighted when we already know people will die left and right. Why not expect the show to provide a different person of color/sexuality/gender and see how that changes the show? Why…

As a gay man of color, it disappoints me on many levels to see people cling to the belief that inclusion is a reason for survival. Inclusion means that instead of a token, there are many representations within a show who can't be placed into a box that is labeled "Hey Look, We're Diverse". Killing Kiera was sad, but…
