Haha, yeah, I somehow managed to choose the one character who DIDN'T die on Sunday. What can I say, I was shooting the moon!

Hey, I didn't expect the ad blocker thing to raise hackles—was just tossing it out there—so let me just reiterate that it's personally cool with me if you have to use an ad blocker. I get it! I'm sorry our user experience isn't better on this front. I promise we'll continue to work on it!
That's okay—thank you for trying!
I promise you that I do pass along all grievances, and I do take ongoing initiative on this matter. It is helpful to get screenshots to the developers because we don't always see the same thing on our end as you see, that's all.
Bizarro, yes, I am in that position, and I JUST EXPLAINED that I advocate for less intrusive ads ALL THE TIME. I exert as much influence on this matter as I possibly can, I promise. Why are you talking to me this way? "Then that's too bad for both of you"? Come on, man. Don't speak to me like that when I'm trying to…
It started here? Cool!
Good point
Thanks Cerusee!
Yes pls
I know this is asking you to do more work, but if, before you reactivate your ad blocker, you could send a screenshot of the offending ad to webtech at theonion dot com with your grievance, it will help the developers a lot to determine which ads are upsetting users the most.
That's fine, and like I said above, I respect people's right to shape their browsing experience. Let me make something clear, though: It's actually NOT our choice, at least if you are talking about The A.V. Club as an editorial entity. We fucking hate intrusive ads! We want people to look at our content, so we…
Hahaha, I have no doubt!
Man alive. I hear you there.
Sure!
Nope, I'm saying that if you concentrate on the things you like instead of the things you don't, you will have much more of an impact on our editorial decision-making.
That drives us crazy too. The site is badly in need of a redesign, and I have been pushing for one for some time, but that comes down to decisions that are above my head. Because GJI doesn't have a place of its own to live in the site layout like Newswire does, it looks like GJI is a much bigger part of our day-to-day…
Hello all, it’s your editor-in-chief here. I’m sorry to intrude, but I wanted to share some insight into recent TV Club changes, and this seems like a fitting place to do it.
That's very kind of you to say, Glyph. I think some thoughtful consideration for the commenters is well deserved. Commenters on this site and on the old Gameological have given me encouragement and strength at points in my career where I could really use it. I'm not saying I never get frustrated with needlessly nasty…
Okay, the tech folks don't have time to join this thread, but they did get back to me on this. I'm catching up a little bit myself, so bear with me. The ability to create new A.V. Club accounts was removed a while ago because it was being abused by spammers and trolls, and there was no reasonable solution for updating…
