She also drives a new-ish Mercedes. It ain't all going to the campaign

I think Kubra is the guy who recruited Alex to move heroin and Vee is probably on the same level as Aleida's boyfriend the dealer (just much better at it than he is), but overall, definitely.

Ciarin Hinds is an excellent actor, but he's too fucking old/fat to play Mance Raydar. Mance is supposed to be this amazing swordsman married to a Helen of Troy-esque beauty. How the fuck does that work for Ciarin Hinds?

Christ would it ever. Big army attacks impenetrable encampment, whose weak point is a gate. Thrust into the leadership because everyone is incompetent is a misfit of a main character, who then proceeds to kick a lot of ass on the battlefield, because of course that's what commanders do, but whose ass is saved by a…

We've got dead Tywin and live Tyrion, I really don't think the finale is that bad. Hell, there's also the Lady Stoneheart reveal, though whether that's good or bad is a coin flip

I mentioned this upthread, but Edd and Pyp have been a shadow of their book-selves

Jesus that long pan was crazy. Honestly reminded me of the fight scene at Helm's Deep

The show really has fucked up Pyp and Dolorous Edd. Grenn has been fantastic, but Pyp wasn't nearly cheeky enough and Dolorous Edd is just whiny, rather than resignedly hilarious

Fuck I was so happy Taystee won. Jesus, when the Philip Morris guy didn't immediately recoil from Flaca's hand on his leg, I was so pissed.

Taystee's exuberance makes her impossible to hate. That, and lines like "So I wake up with barbecue sauce on my titties and I'm like, 'Seriously, again?'"

Well yeah, breasts come in pairs, guys can't match that!

Truth be told, I'm kinda happy it looks like he and Polly are going to bang. I mean, no, I don't really want those two and Polly's husband to take any screentime away from better characters and stories, but I would love to see those three's yuppie lives fall absolutely to shit. It's truly lovely that three colossal…

Especially since the women's naked bodies depicted are not "TV-titties", to use Taystee's phrase. That said, I'm amazed they managed to throw Polly's breasts out there. I suppose it makes sense in that this show likes to get its comment in on as many women's issues as possible, of which open breastfeeding is…

Maybe I'm a sucker, but I fucking bought it. Hook, line, and sinker. Clearly my lack of street cred is showing here, but what Alex said, I fully believed to be true.

It's a hangout show, but the show takes care to always wrench you back to the fact that it's a really shitty place to be. See, for example, just before Piper got sent to SHU. She was getting along with Alex, people were dancing, Pennsatucky wasn't getting anywhere, hell, even Mendez's creepy behaviour was working to…

I was going to respond above, but I can cover what you brought up here as well.

Oh I love me some Coach, but he at least will back down if an equal (say, an assistant coach in private or Mrs. Coach) shows him he's wrong. Mama Smash, on the other hand, is never wrong (a few episodes ago on the road trip aside). Coach, due to being in a marriage, has learned how to compromise. Mama Smash, as a…

Dude. When Walder Frey the 509980th stabbed Talisa in the pregnant stomach. That's a gruesome death, and all the worse for us readers because we didn't know it was coming.

Theon's "MORRRRRRDOLLLL KOMBAT!!!" syncs up amazingly well.

The best comparison for Y is Saga, one of Vaughn's current series, because Yorik and Marko are the same personality over two bodies
