  1. Trying it out now on my Chromebook. Very nice so far. Thank you
  2. I see True Blood as a comedy...at least that's the only way I can enjoy it lol
  3. I can't comment for everything and everyone, only myself. Part of the reason you are seeing this about Theon is that there is a contingent of posters that are enjoying those scenes. It makes the opposition more vocal, imo. I don't recall much cheering for the other scenes. Another thing for me at least is the screen time. The Ros death scene was what 5 seconds maybe? There would be outrage if they actually showed Joff shooting her. Theon and Ramsay was a pretty lengthy scene of mental and physical torture.
  4. Agree. It takes the "good guys don't always win" idea too far. On the heels of Ned/Littlefinger, it starts turning the good guys into bumbling fools and bad guys into having every evil scheme work out perfectly for them. IMHO
  5. Now you are just going to feed the people that will want to blame Ned, lol. I can see how some of Robert's actions may have made Cersei want to get back at him by hooking up with Jaime and bearing his kids. But I can't say with confidence that they ever would have stopped, regardless of how good Robert was to her. I am not not completely buying that Cersei gave a good faith effort to Robert or a further argument that if he was only nicer she would have been a loving wife and stopped screwing her brother. I find that flimsy
  6. I'm totally with your here. I just don't know that it changes anything.
  7. Yes, we can butterfly effect our way as far back as we want, right? lol
  8. The incest itself is not necessarily the problem in my eyes. It is the fact that they continued to do it and Cersei only bore children that were products of it. At a base level, it doesn't even matter if its wrong of if they see it as wrong. More critical is that they are doing it while married to the king. Continuing to do it risks their lives, their family's lives, the health of the realm and the lives of the children that Cersei is said to love so much. JMO
