"Emily Stofle—who is married to David Lynch…"

My solution: eat your cake and have it too. The Memberberries body-snatched Garrison and that clone gets to keep being the president. The real Garrison escapes and must live secretly in South Park as "Mr. Harrison".

I feel like that was a bad declaration, if only because it boxes them in. Say you don't want to become the Trump show every week, fine, but at least keep the door open. You never know where an idea might come from. If Trump does go down in the near future, they've at least got to address that, if only for Garrison.

Yeah well, 24th century New Jersey…

It's an odd argument, that today's fiction should shy away from the truth because some things are just too close to the bone. Besides, if Trump's still around when this thing actually makes it to air, we've got bigger problems than what's on TV.

That last paragraph, like so much of what is said about this show, is a huge series of assumptions. As far as I know, absolutely none of that is factual because no one even knows what the plot is! As always, this show's harshest detractors are responding to the worst case scenario in their imaginations.

I kind of hope this stars Bill Maher just for the increasingly crazed AVClub articles about it.

Back around the inauguration, here were a ton of Trump gimmick accounts here and other places that talked like that basically all the time. You don't see that as much anymore. I guess they figured it wasn't fun either.

Quit falling for the idea that he isn't almost completely ruled by impulse. Ascribing strategy to this guy is like trying to discern the meaning behind when toddlers choose to soil their diapers.

The rot runs deep, and we should all be horrified by it. Even so, if the law of the land was that the person who gets the most votes always gets to be president, today wouldn't be happening.

You know, from Superman. 'Kneel before Gao!"

I feel like people are so eager to rag on the series that they'll take shots at all aspects of it in a reflexive way. The casting of that show is actually really good all around.

And why don't the dragons just grab Cersei and drop her into Mount Doom?

I dun geddit.

The whole show is kind of about what a joke "line of succession" is, and Gilly's reveal is the perfect punchline. The lack of it mattering is what makes it great. I kind of hope nobody ever returns to that page.

As far as secret hideaways go, stashing anything near your mattress is pretty obvious. He didn't make it very hard to find.

People pretending they didn't like the Maul fight because this is the internet and we can't give the Prequels credit for anything in three, two, one…

I'd say the time frame has more to do with it than any favoritism. Leaking GoT a week or weeks ahead of time is shitty, but leaking Curbed months ahead of time after it's been on hiatus for years is on another level.
