I was listening to someone on NPR saying that all the power that the characters were striving for was a now properly a monster they had created and could no longer control and in that way it was actually satisfying. I don't know if that makes any sense, I only watched a single episode so far of the whole series so far. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

Best to wait till the stories are done before naming your babies. I didn't make it past two DVDs of the series. Just not my thing. I heard it got better, but looking at the recent synopsis, inthin it just simply still isn't my thing. "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts." Daniel Patrick Moynihan |

| ams288 Member since: Apr 21, 2016 Threads: 29 Posts: 13155 | I'm actually enjoying the final season. People actually expected this series to wrap up in a way they wanted? What show have they been watching for the past 7 seasons?! I think Dany's descent into becoming the "mad queen" has been well plotted. A straight man will not go for kids. - AZDuffman |

I guess, barristas at Starbucks. I wrote it off as Sopranos meet Middle Earth, but it seems the entire world has embraced it. Is it the rape scenes, the violent females, the exotic locales? |
