It seems that his irrelevance is what strengthens his position and makes him "adequate", particularly to Cutler and Cooper.

So I have to admit that when Peggy came up with the "Place with no television where you can break bread and everyone's family", I was impressed, but almost immediately worried that they'd be accused of going off-script, and they'd find a way to blame Don and accuse him of commandeering Peggy's project, whether or not…

His prose is artless, and his attempts at pastiche in narrative and dialogue are inconsistent and grating.

Jojen and Meera, maybe.

So is it inevitable that Stoneheart will meet Littlefinger? How's he going to react?

surely if any group is Buckingham-Nicks era Fleetwood Mac it's Danaerys, Jorah, Daario and Ser Barristan

Cutler and Lou are the most moustache twirling villains the show has ever had

yeah, part of the point is to make unhealthy food unappealing for a while, so they'd (in their mind) be more likely to stick to their diet once they start.

chocolate chip pancakes and stuffed french toast would make for a great extended dessert.

well that kind of makes Dany a bit of a hypocrite doesn't it

iirc he mentions it once, to Dany, early on. Basically tells her the sob story but I think he left out the part about being a slaver.

@avclub-7aee1b75b527e215f31e20a5c4e7a768:disqus It was not the first time that members of the small council mentioned Jorah's name specifically when talking about their spies across the sea.

structurally the plot in keeping with the "fool in the wind" trajectory. kind of like with the Bruno movie; the oblivious protagonist gets within an inch of complete disaster, only to be saved through no effort of their own, but just the whims of the universe.

i would say borderline personality disorder, but there's probably some overlap/concurrent diagnosis with bipolar. people like her often have more than one diagnosis.

Todd, don't you think she's more opportunistic than altruistic?

i kind of feel like they made their point though. the ending really works.

i like that unlike with other antiheroes, who often have a selling point (which mostly tends to be superlative/savant level skill at one thing, whether it's being a mob boss, cooking meth, or solving murders) Amy Jellicoe is pretty much good for nothing. Although I never quite hated her, the fact that she didn't do…

aside from alienating people who want to watch TV to escape reality, i think it hit too close to home for too many people (either in terms of themselves, or the kind of people they don't like- i'm pretty sure some people never want to watch someone juicing vegetables and using words like "manifest" because it brings…

my impression was that they wanted to push him away, make him choose to voluntarily relinquish any active role in the company, hoping he'd use the chance to apply elsewhere as a person who currently has a job instead of someone who's been fired, and they wouldn't try to enforce the non compete clause in his contract.

yeah, if it was supposed to be consensual in the show, i wonder why those lines at the end were cut out.
