You keep saying repeatedly how this is "Elizabeth's series". I feel you are mistaken. This story isn't solely about Elizabeth. Yes, she's the Queen so a huge part of it, but the series isn't called "The Queen". It's called "The Crown". The series is about the how The Crown affects the U.K. as a whole, not just…

I don't think the pilot "covered" interracial dating as much as it espoused the insecure viewpoint that black men dating outside their race is them fetishizing other ethnicities and rejecting black women.

"Show diversity"? How about showing ACCURACY?

Like I said, the producers showing up tonight to try and calm the masses says it all. it was absolutely ridiculous what they did.

The core characters, Rick, Carl, Michonne, Carol, Maggie & Glenn have "force fields" around them. They aren't going to die in some random episode. It saps any scene of them in "danger" of any tension. If they die, it'll be some epic moment out of the comics or a season finale.

Oh, Lady Stoneheart is happening. It's obvious the producers want to keep it secret. Having Brienne in the background all season will pay off with the very last face you see this season will be a very withered-looking Michelle Fairley
