when did she expressly say what her plan and intentions was until the final episode? when was the pivot from “destroy humans and save a place for our hosts” to “free humans from their loop”? Why was that not dramatized until the very last episode?

When did that pivot happen? That’s the question. We never saw it, so how do we know she pivoted? She sure is killing a bunch of humans 

“In his recap, Rob also states that the USB Caleb had was - and I quote directly here: “a device that would wipe out humanity entirely” when it was quite explicitly stated that it was a copy of what was uploaded from her final piece of data; a key to allow Caleb control of Rehoboam, and therefore the CHOICE to shape…

I’ll comment on yours since robot_jox is dismissing mine (as is his wont; I know I do)

And Sense8 had a 6 season plan that Netflix had OKed! That means there must be 6 seasons available right now since Netflix agreed. And Person of Interest also had a 5 season plan!
But I read that article, and nowhere does it say HBO guaranteed 5 seasons in a contract. That’s why people were surprised when there was…

...so you want more episodes just to have the chance to see an episode that didn’t have to do with the plot? How would adding two-standalone episodes create more development in the main plot (which is what “more room” usually means) if by definition the added episodes are standalone? This would do nothing to fix the…

You just seem angry at critics for not liking dumb shows. Can you give examples of shows that you think critics have ignored because they “can’t analyze”?

Caleb is boring because Aaron Paul is boring. Jesse Pinkman worked despite Paul, not because of him. 

Do you think the issue this season was that it was rushed and had 8 episodes? There was so much filler and wasted motion in between and wheel spinning that there was like 4 episodes of actual good plot. It would have been, ironically, interminable at 10. How can you have character development when key parts of peoples…

Is there a more pretentious show on TV? I can’t really think of one right now. West World thinks it’s super smart (AI! Multiple storylines! Timeshifts! Simulations!), but all the plotting just ends up messy and idiotic. It’s a schlocky sci-fi that feigns prettiness and takes 8 episodes what could have been 4…

“People are too stupid to wear masks so no one should or so the government should stop advocating for it” is closely related to “Criminals will still get guns so why have any gun control?”. For them, if you don’t get 100%, what’s the point? (though really for them the point is MAH FREEDUM)

I’ve never understood the appeal of Aaron Paul’s acting even back in Breaking Bad. He gives line readings like he’s in an interview. A mixture of weird woodenness and artificiality

Because reveals! it was part of her plan! that makes it better!

West World’s problems isn’t that it has too few episodes. It’s how they structure the episodes they have. They reveal things in episode 8 that should have been 1 or 2 if you want any sort of emotional connection or clear stakes. Instead, everything is muddled. You have people viewing Dolores through 20 different prisms…

It was a smart decision to preplan for that, but shapeless bags are still shapeless bags. Gigi mentioned making the dress with a designer and with her mom

So easy that in 11 seasons of Drag Race (not including the shortened 1st or All Stars), there have only been two people first to two wins (Max and DeLa) who did not finish in the top 3. The only way it’s easy is if you don’t think past wins are indicative of future rank.

Oh, I don’t disagree with her being worse in every way than equivalent queens (Nina West, DeLa). It was mainly that you never saw her as a frontrunner despite all the challenge wins otherwise and never really said why other than “I don’t care for her” and “she’s one note”. Dismissing the first queen to win two…

She’s only not an obvious frontrunner because we haven’t seen her narrative in the show, but her actual performance results has her up in contention. She had two wins under her belt, she hasn’t been in the bottom, and the judges seem to love her. Sh*rry may not personally be your taste, but maxi challenge wins are…

Don’t you understand that some people are OKAY with going out and maybe dying and that it’s their right to do so even if it endangers everyone else?! Freeeeeedom

y’all can have your circle jerk elsewhere if you want
