From the little I’ve read that touches on it she very much did not care for Eleanor. 

She was pretty evil though. 

Stories more bizarre than Cersei becoming Queen Regnant happen in history. For instance, Isabella deposing her husband, Edward II (sure her time at the top was short but so was Cersei’s I think a year passed in show.) It was later in history but not in any less a patriarchal society when Catherine the Great, who…

I liked that book a lot but there was a weird part where she suggested she pissed off the people of London because she was on her period. When she did the same thing her father would have done. Refuse to give into demands from what should be subjects.

I always thought Henry the Young King sounded like a useless prick. I think Richard was the best of his sons.

I love her so much.

On the bright side I get a nice evening buzz on much less wine. Cheaper. 

Fantastic.

There is a difference between declining to continue with a show and publicly bemoaning that all of your crew isn’t being laid off.

She doesn’t even have that active a social media presence either. That’s what I’ll never understand. She isn’t one of those people conditioned to tweet every time they take a piss. She hardly ever tweets. And THIS is the time you had to air your thoughts?

Whenever Ming-Na Wen’s Elaine (the mother to the son who owns his own business/is a taxi driver) is on the show she is fabulous. Better than Jessica honestly.

That’s definitely fair. Although I don’t think she was supposed to be the star. She just eclipsed everyone. It’s Eddie’s memoir. His show. Initially his voice-over (quickly dropped.)

She’s a great comedic actress and Jessica was a fun character at first. But she really has become a pretty stock sitcom character. Flanderized to hell. I don’t blame her for wanting out. (One of the shows we keep on the background sometimes when cooking or playing a game when Hulu reminds us it exists. The quality…

Sufe Bradshaw had some serious health issues, which kept her out of work for awhile. I think/hope she is doing much better now.

I love Sue. And I’m so glad she wasn’t involved with Selina after she left office. I missed her but she is way way too good for that. 

I rewatched the show leading up to this season (GREAT rewatch value, btw) and it’s really stands out how much they changed Selina.

She threatened to do this very thing to both Qarth and Mereen. She was only stopped by advisers she trusted, which she no longer has.

Well, you were right! And Cersei is a much different character in show so I don’t think it ruined her narrative arc. 

I don’t think this is a slow type of thing. She snapped.

I think you mean maternal and cousins are much less closely related than brothers and sisters.
