He'd have been Bertie York to his pre-1936 friends, I think. But Eden would not have been a friend.

Elizabeth is quite good at being a constitutional monarch, I think. But it's a weird job that mostly requires not doing anything.

I mean, it's very much a Tory/monarchist take on the monarchy, as much as it's (rightly!) de-romanticizing Churchill.

Lithgow is not good! Why do people think he is good? I mean, he's a good actor, but he's so distracting as Churchill. Harris and Foy are great.

That being said Claire Foy and Matt Smith are both perfect.

Ian McNeice. Too fat, I think, but better than Lithgow, who barely has a passable Churchill *impression*. Like his Churchill impression would be pretty good if he was a dude doing it at a party. You'd be like "that's pretty good, you should work on it." Not "Your Churchill impression is so good you should be playing…

So, I mean, I know we all love John Lithgow and everything, but he's an *awful* Churchill. Every moment he's on screen, all I can think is "this is John Lithgow doing a kind of third rate Churchill impression." I guess Robert Hardy is too old now, but surely there were better options? Albert Finney was a creditable…

Edward VIII didn't get to choose to abdicate. His abdication was an act of parliament. If Baldwin hadn't wanted him gone, he couldn't have quit on his own.

Sadly, the rights Doctor Doom and Latveria are owned by Fox.

I mean, if I'm watching a Luke Cage show, I'm looking for a) yellow shirt, crown, and chain belt; and b) "Sweet Christmas!" These are *the* two details of importance.

How has nobody mentioned "Sweet Christmas!" yet?

This one's already been done. http://www.slate.com/articl…

Walder Frey is dead! And, um, the Stoneheart stuff was clearly unset up when we saw the BWB - if she's already resurrected, where was she? If she hasn't been, it's been over a year since the Red Wedding (at least)

I mean, the music for TV shows generally isn't designed to hold up when listened to on its own.

Cousins marry all the time. Probably the majority of marriages in human history have been first or second cousin marriages. Jon and Sansa is icky because they were raised as brother and sister.

No. Not it's not. For God's sake people.

Looking at how Dorne has played out, wouldn't it have made much more sense for Doran to take out Ellaria and the Sand Snakes, and then had *him* make the alliance with Dany at the end?

We don't actually get much on Sauron's origins. Melkor's, certainly, but all we know about Sauron is that he's a Maia who joined up with Melkor at some point

Neither of them knows that.

Gendry's the only Baratheon bastard in the show.
