#got s8e4

[misguidedasgardian]

I'm so disappointed with this show, I hated what they've been doing since atrocious b&c portrayal in e1, but this last episode (the leak) made me sick. Seriously, I don't understand how they managed to fumble this story so badly. And Aemond. He was one of the most popular characters after s1 with a good backstory and they should have just continued with it. The fact that even many TB fans liked him or found him interesting confirms this. But apparently Condal hated him so much and wanted to ruin him. He had so little screentime, they abandoned his character development and just decided to make him a one dimensional villain. However, I still understand him and won't bash him because I really dislike when the authors (and the narrative itself) are forcing me to hate a certain character. Also, I feel the same like with Daenerys after s8e4, he is basically all alone now, his mother betrayed him and revealed his war plans to the enemy, his sister tells him he'll die... It's just horrible. I hate those writers and what they did to the characters I loved.

Aemond was the only one I like of TG, I'm team black till the end so yeah I can confirm this! (don't get me wrong, I think all the ACTORS are incredible and are doing amazing, its the characters I don't like)

I said it recently, and I will say it again, I was team Mom's boy Aemond, I loved the relationship they had, specially when portrayed in S1E9, when he comforts her, and placed himself at her disposal... the way he held her... I was like damn Alicent, you might have showed disgusting favoritism, but at least, after everything and the horrible marriage with that walking corpse AT LEAST she has Aemond to show for it, despite all his flaws I thought he was going to be like a rabid dog in service of his family, because that is all he cares about... after the neglect from Viserys and his favoritism for Rhaenyra, he was going to be like... alright then... my FULL siblings and my mom, that's all I got... and that was burst into flames, for what?

He turned into a true villain, and not even a good one... like I get it, you want to be King, but at last, since Aegon didn't, they could have come to some sort of arrangement, right? do something better than what they did, I know they have a few minutes with each, but... dude..

he was such an interesting character... and they blew it up, i thought he at least was going to have... something... that was sacred to him, Helaena or his mother AT LEAST.... something! but he not even caring that his BABY NEPHEW lost his head because of him? it's insane, we all love a good villain with something... sacred to him, right??

And Aemond is only one of the many victims of this bananadnesss

And I don't like what they did with Rhaenyra either, I was so much more into that spoiled, darkish, tortured by her stepmother woman fromt he books, and she is too good, I think the writters got scared because of Dany, thought we wouldn't become Rhaenyra's apologists (they were wrong) hehehe

Anyways... LONG LIVE FANFICTION! we will keep them alive! as the show is assasinatings all of their characters! jejeje

JB Week 2023!!

i've been waiting for this!!! idk how much i'll participate but i'll start with today's question:

How did you discover JB?

so for YEARS my sister had been trying to get me to read the books and watch the show but it never really caught my attention, and then one of my friends started the show in like 2022 and she got obsessed so i started watching and i loved the show. i instantly latched onto jaime in particular, and i even liked him before s3 and his maiming although i have to admit it has to do with nikolaj coster walday being too perfect for this one human earth. anyways then i got to the later seasons (which i hated) and then to s8e4 where we finally get canon JB and it is ripped from our grubby little hands.

i was devastated w the show's ending and with both jaime and brienne's arcs, so i fell down the rabbit hole of video essays and then fanfic, where i started to read a lot of book!canon fanfic without realising it because i thought it would be similar to what happens in the show. and so i started to read the books in late 2022 and finished them around mid 2023, and here i am.

with the books i only seemed to grow more obsessed, i have all my editions tabbed with where the jaime and brienne chapters are and with separate colours for them while everyone else isnt as meticulously tabbed imo, and i constantly reread the jaime affc chapters because i genuinely think they're phenomenal and they help me process a lot of things. as of right now i would say im primarily a fan of the books (especially book JB) and i really want to reread them without having them as my focal point even though i do love and adore them sososo much.

anyways happy JB week to all!!!

South Park Filler Guide - Season 8

Link for Seasons 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

PLS my analysis will have spoilers, if you’re a first time viewer, just scroll to the bottom and read the list and only read full text if you are familiar with the content of the show already! S8E1 Good Times with Weapons is FILLER

Yes! Everyone's favorite season premiere is a filler, baby! It was fun, we sang, we cried, in the end Butters never has a scar on his eye again. S8E2 Up the Down Steroid is LORE

We have a new tradition, which is that after last season's Krazy Kripples, we'll have a new Jimmy episode every year! And this is the first time we meet Nathan and the rest of the special education kids. S8E3 The Passion of the Jew is FILLER

I wanted to tell you this one was canon, because the season has constant mentions of Passion of the Christ so far, but in the end, it doesn't even matter. S8E4 AWESOM-O is FILLER

Sooo if every anime filler was as good as these ones, the filler guides most likely wouldn't exist (or they would, because humans), but again, what we have is a self-contained story. S8E5 You Got F'd in the A is FILLER

At one point I might have convinced myself that what I'm doing with this recap makes some kind of sense, but alas, it doesn't. This became an episodic show and we miss out on all the best episodes. Why am I lamenting at You Got F'd instead of Good Times with Weapons? Because I'm a loose cannon with no regard for the law. That may be true, but I get the job done, God damn it. S8E6 The Jeffersons is CANON

No other Mr. Jefferson episode came out while Michael was still alive. As a hologram he later references his name being Jefferson again, but this one only ads a little more context to that. This one also pretty much introduced the new cops of South Park. S8E7 Goobacks is FILLER

Yes, Darryl and the Took our jobs meme are here, but it will return in enough episodes to still be understood. S8E8 Douche and Turd is CANON

What a great election episode! We get town lore (Stephen with the ram's horn again) and an allegory that will return in a big way later. S8E9 Something Walmart This Way Comes is FILLER

I regularly forget this one exists and doesn't make a difference at all. Sorry, got too subjective. Objectively this is an episode with a simple message and without a larger scope for the show. S8E10 Pre-School is FILLER

Trent Boyett never returned. But if you think about it, he is one of the boys' greatest foes. I wish one of the specials was a follow-up of the 15 year old versions of the characters meeting Trent again. If everything else fails, THAT would bring me back and change my classifications! S8E11 Quest for Ratings is FILLER

One time the boys played cops. They even played musicians. Now they play newsreaders. Only Jimmy is in for the long-run and he will get episodes that focus on that individually. S8E12 Stupid Spoiled Whore Video Playset is CANON

Not just because it's a follow-up to Death Camp of Tolerance, that in itself wouldn't be enough. But Paris also has an extended role in a specific later episode I mentioned a lot, but never dropped. It's 200 by the way. And 201. Now I am a bit picky of which ones to include if we got no other clue for an episode. The show never got to 200 celebrities at that point. Also, some of them were in that episode first. So only the most prominent ones get their debuts counted as canon ones by default. S8E13 Cartman's Incredible Gift is CANON

A character dies. Harrison Yates gets more role here as a detective, slowly drifting away from Barbrady. S8E14 Woodland Critter Christmas is FILLER

It's just in Eric's mind. Some of you are already mad at me for this. Some of you will only get it later and be mad at me in the season 11 post.

SPOILER-FREE RUNDOWN

Again, CANON means you should watch it, FILLER means you can skip it, LORE is somewhere in-between, any episode with the LORE label will have an explanation that helps you decide if you should include it or not. S8E1 Good Times with Weapons is FILLER S8E2 Up the Down Steroid is LORE* S8E3 The Passion of the Jew is FILLER S8E4 AWESOM-O is FILLER S8E5 You Got F'd in the A is FILLER S8E6 The Jeffersons is CANON S8E7 Goobacks is FILLER S8E8 Douche and Turd is CANON S8E9 Something Walmart This Way Comes is FILLER S8E10 Pre-School is FILLER S8E11 Quest for Ratings is FILLER S8E12 Stupid Spoiled Whore Video Playset is CANON S8E13 Cartman's Incredible Gift is CANON S8E14 Woodland Critter Christmas is FILLER

*Casually introduces the special ED kids

CANON counter:

S1: 9 out of 13  S2: 3 out of 18  S3: 6 out of 18  S4: 10 out of 17  S5: 8 out of 14  S6: 11 out of 17 S7: 6 out of 15 S8: 4 out of 14

Overall: 57 out of 126

after giving up on s8e4 of my got rewatch i am once again saying the baenre are valyrian coded but they are the weird house who lives in a cave system they mine and despite there definitely BEING men they've only ever had a matron as the head of the house and all their fighters are women and they possibly have really fucking weird magic that keeps the matron alive

[wetthandss]

OP asked for context, so here's what I was able to find. The video is from a 1996 commercial for a Columbo collector's edition VHS. The specific (and only) footage I could find of any of these collector's edition commercials was for the premiere episode. Searched the fuckin library of congress but the only useful video ended up on YouTube of all places.

You can see the exact frame in the video where the UNCENSORED image is taken from. All of the collector's edition boxes looked the same, but I can't find commercials for anything other than Prescription Murder. So that brings the actual text of the commercial into consideration. This isn't just the whole first season these were sold episode by episode, narrator says "apprehend your first classic mystery" and "to get your first video", and if you look at people selling these on ebay or amazon or whatever they list specific episodes.

The only Columbo episodes I can think of that would even possibly include boobs that need to be censored and are now uncensored are Suitable for Framing (S1E4) and Grand Deceptions (S8E4), and even then Grand Deceptions is really stretching "censored" because the only boobs there are covered by sheets. Very PG. I can't imagine how that could be "uncensored" as it appeared that way in the TV version that I checked just for this post. Also, Grand Deceptions does not even appear to have a Columbo collector's edition VHS. So that just leaves Suitable for Framing.

Suitable for Framing is a bit of a different case considering that episode actually has a nude model in it. I checked this episode too, TV version. She's almost completely covered by a canvas the whole time, just her head and shins sticking out but still! That's the only relevant thing the "uncensored boobs" could possibly be talking about. And it's season 1 so yes that episode does have a Columbo collector's edition VHS, which you can really buy online but I don't have the money or a VHS player to do it.

Oh, one more thing.

Y'see, somethings been botherin me when I've been poring over all these commercials and parental guidance ratings for episodes from the early 70's and VHS collections. The image that you posted, OP, it's got a different typeface. Not just a font but a whole new typeface. Through the whole commercial I found on YouTube, it uses the exact same typeface. Now it could very well be that they decided to change it up to somethin more intense just for the uncensored boobies and cussing, but I don't think they'd go through the trouble. Oh, and uh, I looked through the entire script for Suitable for Framin yknow the only episode with boobs in it and well, I didn't find a cuss of any kind. Now I just find that interesting... What's my point? No, no no point. Just that, uh... It's a unique situation.

What I'm getting at there is that this could very well be fake. As far as I can tell there is no episode of Columbo that has all three qualities of

-Boobs

-Cussing

-Collectors edition VHS

The video from the image, like I said before, is taken directly from that 1996 commercial for Prescription Murder collector's edition.

My personal theory is that this was edited. Any more evidence to the contrary would be fantastic because I really love the image. May seem a bit anti-climatic but bein a detective doesn't always mean you're gonna find what you wanna find.

i lied columbo opens his jacket in season 2 episode 1 and we see his massive fucking honkers they tried to take it off the air they tried to censor it this image is the only surviving memory please you gotta believe me you have t

Cersei: If you have any last words now is the time

Missandei to Daenerys:

[snewtons-second-law]

“That one’s yours, Snow.”

[oakpear]

[ashtronomyyyy]

I was so scared for 8×03 that I didn't consider that 8×04 would be the real episode to mess me up

[cuntnymeria]

This is bullshit

This whole thing is bullshit

That’s a scam

Fuck d&d

Here’s 15 reasons why:

1. Arya is clearly in love with Gendry.

2. Gendry is clearly in love with Arya.

3. “I have a son you have a daughter we’ll join our houses”

4. “I can be your family”.

5. The smiles™️

6. Soft kisses.

7. Rough kisses.

8. He let Arya top him , even though we all know that he could have easily changed that.

9. The first thing he does after being legitimized is go and find Arya and tell her.

10. He called her beautiful?

11. She’s proud of him for being a lord?????

12. He said he loves her.

13. She showed him she loves him too.

14. “You will marry a high lord and rule his castle”

15. “You’d be m’lady”

[abhorsen-stark]

Just saying

1. Jaime and Arya are heading down to kill Cersei. Even odds on who manages it.

2. Rhaegal isn’t dead. I don’t get why, I don’t get how, but it feels like that’s what they’re implying??

3. Fuck how they treat Ghost and direwolves.

4. Fuck a lot of gender shit and race shit in this episode.

[ijennyathome]

Exactly.

[youhavelovelyeyes]

Theories about the Gendrya kiss in 8x04

I have seen the theories about Arya and Gendry kissing, but I really don’t believe it’s going to be a goodbye kiss (even though it could be). 

I don’t think Gendry, after this giant battle, will want to leave Arya’s side. After all, she’s the one who saved them all. 

I think Gendry’s always seen himself unworthy of Arya. He has underestimated her fighting the dead, until he saw just a little bit of what she was capable of. (You know, throwing blades around and everything...). But then I believe he just didn’t want her to fight not because he thought she wasn’t good enought, but because he only wanted her to be safe. 

Gendry has always tried to protect Arya, even when he knew he couldn’t do a lot. But after she defeated the Night King, he realized that she doesn’t need any protection, and in a way she doesn’t need him anymore. 

I feel like Gendry is going to be a bit unsure of himself because of that. He’ll think he’s not good enough for Arya. And that’s why I believe it’s not going to be a goodbye kiss, but more of a reassurance kiss.

Arya DOES need him. She needs him to stay connected to her humanity, to her old self, to the girl she once was, the girl who would have done anything to get back to her home when she lost it. Gendry is a reminder of those things. Arya will kiss him to reassure him that he wasn’t just a one-night-we’re-all-going-to-die-stand, rather than the choice she make. The choice she’ll make again, in different circumstances. Because she chose him. 

Plus : we still have to see them talking about her scars and I need that.
