I got to some scene in i think the first season where they have to defend a settlement with these goofy laser guns on terminus i think? honestly the worst thing i've ever seen in TV. putting up with the grotesque niggers who also cant act was just not worth it anymore

Season has been max comfy so far. I like that they've gone with something very different with empire this time. And I like that Gaal is interacting with them again

They're toning it down this season which goes a long way for comfort, the lead black woman is a really bad actress but that's not a huge problem for her role

sadly the mule suffers from "conveniently selective powers" like many poorly written villains. his mental abilities mean that it's impossible to get the drop on him. you're telling me a fucking camera flash is enough to stall him for 10 minutes?? all he has to do is think "don't run"

Booklet detected. It seems they're following the books closer this season so there's going to be a reason Euron Greyjoy got bested so easily if they continue following them.

I didn't even know this show was back until last week.

Season 3 has been good so far though, now that Salvor is dead the show should be much improved. Her actress couldn't act.

The subtly loss of all background sounds, in the moments after Day gives the signal, before slowly returning to normal, is really good sound design. Evokes insects suddenly going quite, when the peace is broken, on an otherwise quiet night.

This guy successfully tricked me into hating him while playing the colorblind Dawn, he came off as such a wimpy faggot that I assumed that was all he could do but I was pleasantly surprised at how good he is at playing a more stoic and intimidating Dawn. I also really liked the kid Dawn scenes in season 1.

She is distracting when the script calls for her to show heightened emotions but not offensively so.
The other black chick was very irritating but I think that was a product of the whole show being more obviously and forward with the "woke" stuff (yes, I know, "chud", etc.), which has been toned down this season in favour of entertaining us and moving the plot forward. Almost every female character was extremely annoying in the first two seasons.
A slightly different treatment of Salvor could have been much better, textbook girlboss shite

He comes off as a sort of shy and goofy sweetheart of a fellow in interviews, very personable but I suspect he's more of a team player and not one to necessarily pursue carrying massive projects on his shoulders.
I'm guessing he really likes acting, since he's so good at it, and likes to choose his roles.

I think we're all in agreement that they laid on the worst excesses of shitlib politics extremely thick and transparently in the first two seasons, what's interesting is how they've been able to shift gears so rapidly to the point where it's been entirely purged.

And to elaborate on >>213120504 a little, there were some quite brilliant writing choices and changes made from the start (Empire being the best one). It's odd that they'd take such pains to adapt the source material well, while simultaneously sabotaging it with warmed over, past expiration date politics.
I suspect this is a simple case of them being provided with hard numbers and parameters to meet that are no longer in play.

Ep 3 is really hinting that Euron is a fake Mule the real mule is using to divert attention from himself

The show runners might go for an authentic Mule with that bald musician fuck who just got introduced. He's more book Mule looking.

He had an American show in the 2010s, it was amazing, but it didn't last long. I think after that he didn't try to hard for leading man stuff.

Even in Halt and Catch Fire he's part of an ensemble.
