The problem with bad Southern accents is not so much that they're too thick but that they betray that the actor thinks the character is either stupid (bad redneck accent) or self-righteous and hypocritical (bad rich Southern accent).

When people say children should be allowed to read anything they want to, I think back to when I tried to read The Painted Bird at age 12. I got as far as the eye-removal scene and was legit traumatised for months.

Yep. She doesn't even have a middle name.

Cameron wears a ton of makeup.

A big part of the problem is British actors doing British-style humor with American accents. It messes with the pacing of the dialogue and makes it feel slightly forced. 

The score is just terrible.

Seems odd to me that Katie talks about Camille Bell being the most important figure in the Atlanta murders case, but then doesn't put two seconds into googling whether the woman is still alive.

Dead to Me had the worst case of disappearing kids I've seen yet. 

Also all that Tyrionsplaining.

Boy, that was shallow.

HHe said like five times this season that he doesn't want King's Landing sacked. I mean, you may not like his reason but he did have one. 

Dany's insanity isn't because of bad genes. It's because she's had an unwavering belief in DESTINY ever since she came out of that fire with those dragon eggs. It could be argued that of all hee advisors Tyrion served her worst by falling under her sway the most. Cynical as he thought he was, he never let go of his…

As I watched this episode I was reminded every five minutes how much I miss the AV Club.

It wasn’t the trying she was blasted for so much as the failing.

Didn’t Adora say she was a Calhoun, though? And she married a Preaker because Preakers had money?

Those are Britishisms one picks up and uses in the UK right away if one has any facility with language, though. And Eve obviously does.

Dickens produced a play about the Franklin expedition, written by Wilkie Collins.

The Hornblower series has that in spades. I actually prefer the televized version to the books. It’s very good; you should check it out.

I don’t think Paul would seem so dumb if the actor playing him looked closer to 15 yrs old than 25 yrs old.

And Lynne Redgrave being amazing.
