Thanks for these reviews, Todd. This is hugely underrated series, and gets unfairly compared to Band of Brothers all the time. The two series, much like the two theaters of WWII, couldn't be farther apart…and that's the point. Like trying to compare Full Metal Jacket to Platoon. Hard to compete with a rousing…

You have to be a very sad person to feel so sorry for Joffrey that you'd shame us for enjoying his death. This is the same little bastard who had all his half-brothers and sisters murdered to protect his own dominance, who dragged his fiance out to lord her father's severed head over her, and who slaughtered a…

You can't tell the King to calm down on his wedding day in full view of every noble in the Westeros. It would completely undermine the crown and would require Joffrey to do something in return, such as firing Tywin as the Hand to maintain face. Joffrey knew he could get away with anything on his wedding day too.

Doesn't make sense to me why he'd rub out Tyrion when he just married Tyrion off to Sansa in order to control the North. If Sansa is no longer a Lannister, she's fair game to some weasel like Littlefinger or the Tyrells all over again.

Marge has everything to lose. The wedding wasn't consumated, there's no spawn of Joffrey to take the crown, so she's going to be out of a job as THE Queen pretty quick.

If you mean the ending of the Sopranos, St Elsewhere pulled the rug out about 20 years prior.

The Wire is a better tragedy than Breaking Bad. Breaking Bad is great dramatic television, but it doesn't really function as a tragedy. It did, until it didn't, and then it never got back on that horse in its final 8 episodes (even when it tried).

Any film where someone is trained in the martial arts by doing menial labor around the home is fucking gold.

Fun fact: there's no legal protection in the US for calling something "Kobe." Only in Japan. Almost no true Kobe beef is imported from Japan because Japanese slaughterhouses would have to meet FDA guidelines, most don't. And even though a couple ranches in the US farm imported Japanese cows, they're being raised and…

I'm over 40 and this wasn't funny simply because these jokes are all so old. The animation and toy commercials were spot on, so kudos to that, but the jokes themselves were tired. But I get that this will never get old for you kids, so whatever.

Those movies have zombies? I had no idea.

It's simple: the ratings go up every single season. The writing staff could write a test pattern for the entire episode and if the ratings stay up, no one gives a shit at AMC.

That's not saying much. The comic is also awful.

They were WAY more hard-working and industrious than hipsters.

Makes sense. Vampires get chicks. Zombies are for nerds.

It's OK to rip a man's throat out, threaten to rape a teenager, and depict cannibalism, but these "fucks" are NOT. ACCEPTABLE.

Have you not been paying attention? No one ever tells anyone relevant details on TWD. Andrea doesn't bother to tell Michonne a single detail about anyone she survived with on their walk across Georgia. Michonne doesn't bother to mention who she walked across Georgia with. Michonne doesn't tell them any specific…

The zombies have eaten quite a few people in the last 2-3 seasons. Let's give the zombies their due. They're keeping it real.

This.

Only if that man was fucking with his freedom.
