For what it's worth Martin said in an interview with Time Magazine that Beric and Jon are Fire wights rather than Ice Wights so I don't think the same rules apply.

If Dany wants to conquer Westeros then this was something that inevitably had to happen. It would be too much of a stretch for every lord in the seven kingdoms to welcome her return. There were going to be people who refused and dealing with that is indeed something she is supposed to do.

Maybe he reasoned that he would not be able to serve a Queen who burned his father alive so he might as well die now with him. Less of a sacrifice and more of a principled stand however foolish it might have been.

Jon not wanting the throne is lucky for Dany but it also rids her of a potentially interesting internal conflict as to how justified her really conquest is. Its why I think her eventual face off with Aegon will be interesting in the books, especially if she doesn't know right away if he's a fake.

I can't wait to see how Dany reactions to Jon being the rightful heir. Theres always been a bit of a disconnect with the way she talks of breaking the wheel while also using her lineage to claim the throne and demanding that the other houses honor ancient oaths of fealty. I've seen some claim that she doesn't care…

There were plenty of serialized anime on TV during Jack's era but most American cartoons were still hesitant to embrace the idea. Avatar and Justice League Unlimited were fairly unique when they showed up a few years later. I remember one of the Avatar writers saying they had to keep stressing to the network how…

Its not just a western religious thing, suffering being a key component of the human experience is an important concept in Buddhism as well.

Present day Dolores has only begun to get her memories back again so it makes since that she didn't recognize MiB the first time she saw him. Its implied that shes been through the sort of awakening multiple times.

George RR Martin's editor once said that whenever George reveals a twist there's a three step reveal: first there are very subtle clues that only the most attentive will pick up on, then there are more blatant hints, and finally he just spells it out.

The general was feeding her the information. He explained that he didn't quite understand how her mind worked but that he needed to give her his number and tell her his wife's dying words so that she could repeat it to him in the present when she looked into the future.

Regarding the General, I think the point is that he was the only person who knew his wife's last words so Louise repeating those words proved that she could see the future. Once she proved that, she could then convince him that the aliens mean no harm and were actually giving them the ability to perceive time…

It sounds kind of awful when you put it like that. "I know better than you do, so I'll keep this information from you so you'll choose what I want". Even if it's true, Ian deserves to have a choice even if Louise thinks he's choosing wrongly.

Joss admitted that he always had trouble writing Angel and it shows. He didn't really become an interesting character until he got his own show that Joss was only somewhat involved in. Tim Minear and David Greenwalt really made the character.

Yeah, Angel's human backstory is told in season one of his show.

This ultimately ended up being a season about failure for our 3 protagonists. Elliot spent the season trying to deal with Mr. Robot, first by trying to destroy him and then by trying to delete him. Both methods fail and he's left once again at the mercy of Mr. Robot's schemes. Angela meanwhile tries to bring down…

Someone on another forum pointed this out but Hannibal and Mr. Robot are similar in that their first seasons while still relatively "weird", follow fairly conventional procedural narratives and were still somewhat accessible to general audiences. The later seasons then became increasingly surreal and esoteric…
