I have a feeling all four of the characters you named are going to make to the finale, or at least aren't going to go out in the way you portend.

Meh, the threshold we all have for putting up with bullshit from someone of no consequence who we know we're never gonna see again is always lower than it would be for someone within our circle of acquaintance with whom we're not trying to burn bridges.

Doug Stanhope has flat-out admitted the hotel incident was him and not Louis CK.

Honestly, I thought the driver was obnoxious one. He went beyond just wanting to make friendly conversation into pointedly, passive-aggressively name-dropping all these other dudes who'd come through town and reveled in hanging out with him specifically to guilt Louie into doing the same when it was already perfectly…

I think his level of fame is fixed to about where it was just before the show. Like, he's known among fans of stand-up comedy but not yet a household name.

Someone's not familiar with the French language, I see.

But we're not talking about what the narrator said. We're not even talking about the jokes that AR was trying to make. We're talking about how perceptions of behavior vary for the genders. Because while the joke may have hinged on her accent, it would not have played nearly as well, if at all, had the person playing…

If Simon Pegg were to do and say everything Rita does and says, he'd seem retarded. I'd submit it has more to with her beauty and gender than her accent.

Which has more to do with how we view the same behavior very differently depending on gender. Bobby's scenes as played by a female actress would have come across as either adorkable or crazy.

There have also been the neighbor doctor, the gay neighbor, multiple male comedian friends, teachers from flashbacks, and David Lynch dropping indisputable truths.

Born in '84.

Truly truly truly outraged.

Hungry? Try thirsty.

But one generally doesn't get to the point of ordering around lackeys without having first been a lackey oneself. Ginger is only 30, so the entry level portion of her career wouldn't be so long ago as to render her hapless.

It hasn't been strictly enforced because no one broke the rule until Kennedy.

I honestly expected to hear Ru say that Kennedy had disqualified herself for leaving the stage. Katya was robbed.

Robert's bastards were all black of hair. Samwell is clearly brown of hair.

The Valyrian ruins were some of the most stunning art direction the show has ever given us. I'd love to take a leisurely boat ride down that river… after a greyscale vaccination.

Goddamn you, Wiener! You gave Betty cancer on Mother's Day!

Tywin.
