I’m thankful other people have already commented on this, but I just wanted to say something about it too, albeit too little too late. I’m truly horrified by this depiction of violence against animals. It’s literally sickening to me and I’m gutted about it, especially because I think – although I hope (against better wishes) it isn’t so – that it was real. I always thought the US had such strict rules about animals not being hurt for the purpose of entertainment. I’m shocked animals apparently aren’t legally protected in movies or series! This depicted animal cruelty is too f***ed up for words. I managed to fast forward to most of the scene with the crow, but the other scenes really caught me off guard.
Depiction of animal cruelty is despicable as it is, simply as a matter of principle and because it’s unnecessary and abject, but it’s at least a consolation when you clearly see it’s created by computer generated imagery, but this? I’m speechless and so sad and infuriated by it…
I thought the series was good, but I don’t think I can and will watch it any further.
