Robespierre

Plus side: 10 minutes of Eric and Pam! No lumberjacks. Minus side: Everything else. Bill is such an entitled asshole you can easily believe he was born in the 1850s. "Hey, Sookie, even though I know the thing you want most in the world is for me to live, I'm going to ask you not only to kill me, but to kill me in a way that means you give up the fairy powers that have been the only thing saving you from death half a dozen times in this series! AND IT'S ALL BECAUSE I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!" What was the point of Sookie suddenly being able to hear Bill's thoughts? What was the point of any of this? Also, why did Bill look considerably healthier tonight than he did in the last two episodes? Characters kept commenting on how bad he looked, and the only thing I could think of was that it was in the script but the makeup artists were on strike and they decided to film it anyway.

For me, the shot of the night was Tawney's feet emerging from the worn, dirty sneakers as contrasted with the angelic white dress.

That's the outcome to the season-long Lettie Mae/Tara plot? Really? Every scene without Eric or Sarah Newlin in it felt utterly pointless.

So why not steal his money while he's unconscious?

Having lived in the Deep South, I think a Southern Baptist minister is about the last person any male victim of sexual assault would go to for counsel.

Spoiler tags because I'm going in depth about season 2, for any future readers of this thread. Portia, everything in this post is safe for you.

Agree with you about Hugh Dillon. If it's any consolation, he gets better as the show goes on -- and the supporting cast around him (Louis Ferreira, Michelle Forbes, Michael Nardone) are pretty strong. The third season is my favourite. And yes, we're all in love with Laurence Leboeuf.

Thank you, SilverStormm!

Okay, guys, I have a really stupid question about the Unsullied. (Bear in mind that I'm not the most observant watcher of this show; my wife loves it, but I only pay attention about half the time.) So, the Unsullied are all castrati, right? (Do they ever say what age they clip them at?) So why do they have deep voices and considerable muscles? Does Astopor have medieval Androgel? Maybe this is a stupid question to ask about a show that features dragons, but I thought the human parts were supposed to work basically the same way as in our world. Am I just overthinking this?

3 is definitely my favourite, with "Middle Ground" standing out for me as the show's best episode.

Agree on the love for Spiral and Top of the Lake, but I gotta get in a plug for the brutally dark but fascinating Canadian show Durham County. (Incidentally, this is my first post on Previously.tv. Yet another TWoP refugee here.)
