Why am I seeing all these people saying "poor ending"? Sully's actions are very much understandable. Jamie had tried to kill him twice, one at Jason's memorial, doubt a person like Sully would ever forget that. Yes technically the hit at the memorial was not Jamie's idea but doubt Sully would believe him or even care for that matter.

Sully was also not in the right state of mind after Jamie got out of prison. Sully was basically living in a different world and only Dushane had a say. Dushane kept Jamie around because he thinks he's useful, Sully doesn't. And that comes not only from the fact that the two of them value completely different things in life. For Dushane it's making money that's number one priority. He keeps Jamie around despite Jamie trying to backstab him in Spain. Sully however doesn't care as much for money, what matters more to him is loyalty and when Jamie tried to backstab in Spain, that was the final straw for Sully.

He tried to first let Dushane handle it but saw that Dushane just kept giving him more chances and while Jamie did kill Kit, this doesn't prove loyalty to Sully and Dushane, only to Stef and Aaron. No reason why Jamie wouldn't kill or snitch on Sully or Dushane when things go down. Also with them being suspicious that Jamie orchestrated the whole killing Ats thing, it would seem oddly convenient to them that he puts all the blame on Kit and kills him too before Kit can explain himself. Doesn't prove that Jamie is on their side. And Sully was never on board with the Kit hit anyway, that was Dushane's idea.

Then when Dushane backs Jamie, Sully finally cracks and takes it upon himself. Sully has always been on edge and jumpy when he doesn't trust someone or when he wants something and he doesn't take orders from Dushane either. I wasn't expecting the ending but to say it's unrealistic is dumb to say the least.

Watched a couple of episodes but this is just not it. The format of fans vs favourites is just terrible because you're teammates for half the time and then you're enemies the other half. It also means that one person from your team can save the entire team from elimination. This just allows one exceptional cook from one person and the other 11 cooks don't matter one bit. Then if the other 12 cooks from the other team are extremely good, they don't get rewarded and one person from that team has to leave. The format not only gets extremely repetitive with the same thing happening again and again, people who shouldn't be getting out early, get out early because one person outcooked them from the other team. 11 people from one team could just help this one person cook their dish and do nothing and the entire team still wins. Some people get away with bad cooks and mistakes all the time and still remain in the competition while others don't get acknowledged for their good food by any meaningful reward and end up in elimination and some even get eliminated. And some get eliminated by a dumb pressure test because being able to follow a recipe for a complicated dessert they've never cooked before and will never cook again is a really good showcase of skill for a guy who cooks Vietnamese savoury food I guess?

There is also the same dishes being cooked over and over again by some contestants and they never get punished. Montana and especially Steph cook the same desserts over and over I swear by just a different flavour and not the least bit ambitious in their presentation or trying new ideas like Reynold was but it doesn't matter because they're always just doing desserts on service challenge and all the regular challenges almost always have the entire pantry open. Ganache, Panacotta, Sorbet over and over and just put the key ingredient in and there you go, you've featured the main ingredient and you automatically pass doing the same dessert you cooked 100 times already in this competition and go in the same teams that you did every service challenge and cook the same dessert you did last time.

Fans vs Favourites should have been a free for all, not this format where one good cook in a team can save an entire bad team and just let them get away with 10 bad cooks in a row. While another person with 10 good cooks in a row and one bad cook in the elimination challenge gets out. Even I could have done well in this competition without being the same calibre as these chefs. Just don't cook at all and hope my team wins. I still could end up in the pressure test so I just need to be good at following recipes of unusual desserts but it's all written for me.

You also have all this dramatic moments for absolutely no reason all the time with them constantly trying to cause tension when there is none in the first place. "Oh if I don't complete this, I'll get eliminated". Uhh you have 15 minutes to go and what you're doing takes 1 minute to do. It's so over the top and just unnecessary at so many points that when it actually matters, it doesn't actually feel like it matters. And can we stop with all these over the top stories constantly and all the time. Like I get it, this person went through something, we don't need entire episodes dedicated to them telling their life story. Tell me something about your cooking, some skills you learnt, some chefs you want to meet, some meals you want to cook, no it's just about how their relationship with x person is going and of course you have to add the dramatic music every 5 minutes for something, and if nothing is going wrong, just make something up and make it look like a big deal. They just filter through person to person asking them what they cook and you have the obligatory sob story of said person that will now win that particular challenge, don't go into detail of how they're cooking what they're cooking and the skills they use, no let's just talk about how this person misses their family in this show. After watching multiple episodes, I learnt absolutely nothing about how to cook any of the dishes these people did in this cooking show but at least I know why this one person changed their name. Thanks a lot I guess. And it wouldn't be bad if it was just a short segment for each person, no they just got to farm this for content.

This is the first season of MC Aus I watched so I don't know the old judges and how the new judges compare. They seem fine to me. The bad rating is because the season is done poorly. What people enjoyed about this MC that made it stand out from others was completely thrown out of the window. Add unnecessary drama everywhere and focus less on the cooking.

I'm not even going to go into the plotholes. The most wanted man in France and potentially the World is walking around and running from 100 policemen who all magically lose him in 5 seconds every encounter they have with him. It's laughable that he looks exactly the same in all of his so called "disguises" and it takes long for people to connect that it's the same person. Also the police investigated his Father but not once did they investigate his son with relation to the Jewellery, who probably has a criminal record. And they take like a stupid amount of episodes to discover what his face looks like except you realise that he posted a picture of himself online on that fake Wikipedia page he made and the place where the auction was had security cameras, so where is the footage? The police were too dumb to even figure out the name of Assane, and only found out because somebody had to tell them. Then I just couldn't get over the fact that this cop is in disbelief that Assane could have killed somebody and completely disregards it like he's living in some sort of fantasy. Yeah if someone broke into his house and threatened to kill him and he had no other option, he'd have to kill him. Lupin does a lot of thing Assane doesn't but apparently to this cop, they're the same person and can have no differences.

Now this is just some of the plot holes but the worst of all is when you realise that all this clown writing of Assane trying to avenge his father just led to Assane just pointing a knife at Pelegrini and Pelegrini confessing. The Gentleman thief who doesn't use weapons actually uses weapons. Could have just done that in episode 1 and saved us the trouble. And the cops let him go at the end lol as if Assane didn't commit any crimes. Yeah I guess stealing the 20 mil Jewels, running away from custody, conspiracy, assaulting cops and kidnapping are completely fine because he got confessions from people at death point. Wow what incredible confessions, we could just get confessions the way Assane got from Dumont in a kidnapping with threatening to kill his family, and that actually being used against him and not Assane. Wonderful.

Watching movies with clever writing and an immersive plot is hard to come by but this does it perfectly.

The only problem with the movie I have is that it was very obvious that Detective Mills was Wrath, ever since the photo of him in the bath tub was found and his anger was shown multiple times and the fact that they didn't figure that out themselves especially when the killer constantly kept trying to give it away for some reason even though it would spoil his plans, these two detective couldn't work it out. It was so frustrating to watch, it was obvious the killer was going to do something with Mills but I didn't know what it was. However ending with him being envy was a pleasant surprise as it wasnt something I expected and the ending too.

Overall it was great.

NO SPOILER REVIEW

I have to say I've watched every popular tv show, movie and anime and none have impressed me except one or two exceptions, but even they were stretched out pointlessly just to make money. It seemed like the emphasis on writing was not there. The writing is just flat out lazy and the plot is too simple and repetitive. I had to find a good show but I didn't know where to look. I have looked at all kinds of shows but I just couldn't get behind a story driven to make the main characters win through plot armour.

Then Netflix recommended me Bad Guys Vile City and that was the first time in my life where I had been genuinely excited by the plot and story. Characters, good or bad would act exactly how you would expect them to act, not being lead on by plot armour. The ambitions and goals of the characters were very apparent and they had a clear and concise reason for doing things. Each characters strengths and weaknesses were expressed in a very intricate way. However season one didn't quite hit me in the same way so I started looking for new shows.

After watching the best show in my life, I started looking at Korean TV series to get something similar. This show that I found straight after watching that gave me the same impression as I got from Bad Guys Vile City. The characters are detailed and rich, the plot is complex and there is no emphasis on plot armour, instead the story just flows exactly the way you would think it would, making the series very immersive. Unlike Bad Guys Vile City, this has taken the approach of using evidence and information to compile a list of evidence to find a suspect, while in Bad Guys, brute force and fighting is used to catch a suspect that is known. Both have it's merits but I feel like the story in this show can feel a bit monotonous and drawn out sometimes, especially new evidence is not coming to help find the suspect. However it is made up by constantly keeping you guessing who the suspect is.

The characters I also don't find very interesting in this show, like I did in Bad Guys Vile City, except for Si-Mok, who is the single best character I've ever seen(helped by the brilliant acting). The lack of emotion and sympathy really keeps the show going, and he investigates everyone fairly and sharply no matter who they are. It's hard to explain why I like this character so much, but it's the character that fits perfectly in a detective series like this. He does not get clouded by emotion or other people's emotion, he's just there with a clear goal in mind, to catch the suspect, and he does it without any drama.

SPOILER REVIEW

Alright now that I have listed all the positives, I have to say, this has not taken the top spot in my best tv show/movie/anime list and here's why. The scenes can seem very drawn out at times and you can't help but want it to move on.

Some characters act very out of the ordinary, seemingly to list them as a suspect. For example, it still isn't explained why Prosecutor Seo ran after Ga-Young that exact night, what exactly was he trying to achieve? Then why he went through so much trouble to get to her phone and delete contact with her when it makes him look like the killer. Especially when Ga-Young was still alive and could easily reveal him, and then he goes to the hospital expecting him to not remember him? Then you also find out that who you've been guessing is the killer all this time, is not in-fact the killer. But the reason you don't know the killers identity is not because you misjudged a character, but simply because you didn't know enough about the killer in the first place and then you realise that all the evidence you had got up to that point was completely useless. The only piece of evidence that found the killer, was the tattoo and that is the only piece of evidence that was needed so it felt like the entire ordeal of finding evidence was just a waste of time as it achieved nothing for this case. It felt like they were making it too obvious that someone that Si-mok was investigating, or someone connected, but just hiding it all this time, but no a killer was just there the entire time and all the evidence and motive just dropped in all at once so you never even had time to guess it was him. It also doesn't make sense why he didn't kill Ga-Young. Ok, maybe he didn't think she saw the tattoo but there was literally no reason to keep her alive. Maybe she did see some of his features or maybe she saw what clothes he was wearing or maybe she recognises where he kept her, and there may be forensic evidence there.

In any case though, enjoyed the show and I look forward to seeing more like this.

Non spoilers: I didn't know there was a season 1 originally but it is unnecessary nevertheless. I'm 9 episodes into the second season and I can honestly say this is the best show I've ever watched, and I've watched almost every tv show and anime. The writing is sublime and you actually don't know whats going to happen. The characters are all very unique and interesting and are all trying to achieve their own goals and act like their characters and try to survive, whether we like them or not, which is what I love. Characters they introduce aren't just throwaways with no personalities, they have the ability to adapt and change but in a way that is very normal for someone to do.

It all feels very realistic and immersive, something that no other tv show that I've watched fully has been able to achieve because of the eventual plot amor that gets stashed into the show.

Spoilers:

I'm saying this because characters you expect to have a big impact die left and right and not in a cringe way at like the last episode, to make an opening for the next season. They are all treated like human beings and a lot of time isn't wasted on their deaths either as all characters are treated equally.



I hope this carries on because this is the tv show that I've been waiting for.

Well Toms character was not portrayed very well here. Why on the roof scene is he playing a villain like that? Why would he not just shoot both women in front of Luther and then shoot Luther, then himself? Or at least shoot both the woman, leaving Luther completely alone. I simply do not understand the logic behind his actions. He had nothing to gain by doing what he did, he was never getting out of there and he has already killed innocent people, he should have no trouble killling the person who was the most responsible for his downfall. Anyway how does he know which one Alice is? He was pointing the gun at Alice when Luther said shoot Alice, he shouldn't even know which of the two is Alice. He doesn't know what Mary looks like in the first place.

Why can't John use his phone call with Zoe as evidence? I'm sure they can work out the time of death of Zoe firstly, then they can link the fact that John had a phone call with him during when she died, which there was no reason for her to have. Also in the phone call, she literally said " Ian has a gun on me." Also if that's not enough, there'll be CCTV footage showing John in a busy street at the time Zoe got murdered, because the time she screamed on the phone, can be linked with a CCTV camera showing John on a street or at least one that shows that it's impossible for him to reach his house and murder Zoe all in that time.

This episode just seemed forced honestly. There was no real reason John had to do all this, he had enough evidence anyway. Not to mention the fact that he could literally tell one of the investigators to search Ian's locker to find the stolen diamonds, since he somehow knew about them, further making Ian guilty.

Why can John not get his phone call with Zoe shown as evidence? Zoe literally calls John at the time she got murdered, which she wouldn't do if John was murdering her. She also literally says, "Ian's got a gun on me"? How is this not enough evidence to link Ian to the murder?

It's been bugging me since the beginning of this series. Angela is trying so hard to give James the "death penalty", but she just doesn't snitch about the rest of the stuff for whatever reason. Even if Jamie was guilty and pleaded guilty, he can easily snitch on her for being an accomplice and she'd be on death row with him. What exactly is she trying to achieve? Justice? She doesn't have the right to fight for it anymore. Her entire plot seems to want to pressure him out so Tasha goes to jail, by pressuring him with the death penalty. Even she knows a lot about Angela's involvement but she doesn't mention it once when confronted by Angela multiple times.

I'm sorry, this show should not be as highly rated as it's. There's more to this show than just war, dragons, Jon Snow. It used to have a rich history of houses and it meant something. Now it's just clichés and predictability.

There was no reason to try and capture a wight with some of the best warriors in the realm. There was no reason to convince Cersei, someone who doesn't listen to logic. Her entire army was murdered by Dany and her gold destroyed. And Dany for some reason, after massacring the entire army is trying to reason with how she doesn't want to be a fearful ruler. This show is a new level of bad. You're either a hero or a villain, otherwise you're nameless and you're dead. Predictable. Every show does it. No matter who kills them, we should still view the heroes as heroes and villains as villains. We shouldn't care about their lives because they weren't named and it's completely fine if they die because they're not a main character. The wildlings that accompanied Jon past the wall all died, predictable. Nobody cared about them even though some of them were in worse terms with Thoros, nobody interacted with them.

They're taking the tension away by constantly saving main characters and most of the theories and detail have been blown out of the water. It's like other characters and stories don't matter anymore, it's just about Jon, Dany and the night king. They could've done so many more unexpected things like they did in seasons 1-3 but they seem to just turn into other TV shows, no tension, main characters winning every time even though heroes and villains are just a matter of perspective which Game of Thrones used to consider very well. Now everybody is just categorized as heroes and villains and they're doing everything in their power to save heroes over and over again from impossible situations.

How cool would it have been if Bran used his psychic power to control one of Dany's dragons to assist without Dany's knowledge as the dead ran towards them instead of some bullshit lake that they the wights didn't cross for days because of it being exactly perfect so they couldn't cross but the so called 'heroes' could. Bran can see the future, he saw the army of undead, he controls ravens and could send a message to Jon alerting him of who he is and the dangers he face but he becomes completely irrelevant and his powers have done absolutely nothing to impact the story apart from finding out Jon's a Targaryen. This news only comes at a surprise to the casual viewer who didn't figure this out before and needs to be constantly reminded even though it's been theories for years.

As the seasons keep progressing, Game of Thrones keeps becoming a show that the casual viewer wants it to be and not the rich and historical world it used to be. They've lost the immersion of the story. They're making the show for people who want to see war and action, not see a story. As an avid Game of Thrones theorist, who is interested more by the theories, background, histories and prophecies of this world more than the real world, I'm disappointed. Doesn't mean I don't like war, I don't like the war for good and bad like TV shows make it. It's not as simple as good and bad. And we all want to feel the tension that people are in danger when they make mistakes like Ned and Rob, however you've made it so that "heroes" can escape the impossible over and over and over and over again. Simply boring.

I wish I could rewatch seasons 1-3 over and over again from fresh instead of watching the garbage that GoT is now. It's not GoT anymore in fact, it doesn't deserve such high praise. I don't know who writes this story. It's like they've never even heard of the GoT universe before and they're told:" Jon needs to go beyond the wall and he needs to survive and make it dramatic". Even though getting saved over and over again isn't.

I've seen many TV shows and movies, and after seeing the praises on this TV shows, I expected a lot and was disappointed to the point where I couldn't bear to watch the rest of the episode. I'm going to watch Season 3 because this show was saved by the reviews insisting this show gets better and stories don't follow on from the previous season. I suggest you do the same.

SPOILERS

The show starts out with the Prime Minister getting to know that the princess is kidnapped. The hacker is apparently untraceable and has a strange demand for the prime minister. And I'm sorry but the overacting on the princess almost made me click off in the first place. He can do so much to her, so many things that she'd be pleading for death but she got off easy and she should know she's dead no matter what. She's getting out of this the easy way as far as she knows because there's no way she's surviving in the first place and it just baffles me how scared she is even though her death will be short. I'd rather the kidnapper killed me that day, rather than keep me longer and have more time to imagine ways to torture me.

Now someone with half a brain can realize that there is no impulse for a stranger with so much power in his hands to give up his hostage in the first place even if the demands are met. However, stupidly enough many people are wanting to comply with this stupid deal, including the people advising him.

Then this mysterious person cuts off the finger and mails it and people lose their minds. The kidnapper can do anything he wants in the present and the future. And now 86% (or whatever that number was) of complete brain dead creatures thinks that the only way to stop a kidnapper from keeping an extremely valuable person is to do as they comply. And some of these people are joking about the Prime Minister's fortune when a person's life is on the stake.

At this point I stopped watching, I knew where this was going and just the prime minister even considering the request is stupid. This entire plot is stupid and makes no sense. This is the single worst written story I've ever watched. I mean you've a 0% chance of saving the princesses life if you comply, but you've a 100% chance of ruining another kids life because he happens to watch the news and see this horrendous act, or 1000s of kids. And the most ridiculous thing is, people are perfectly fine with this and even are happy that he's doing it. My word is this the worst written plot ever.

I was very critical on the last episode because of the last scene, giving me reminders of season 6 and the episode No One. However this episode was incredible, this is how you create tension and immersion, not by predictable and garbage fight scenes, but with scenes high in emotion.

There are a few things I'd like to point out though which are really bugging me. Firstly Sansa said "Killed my Father, Mother and Brother", when referring to Cersei, but she never mentioned sister. Aya presumably died in Kings Landing however it was Cersei's fault that she ended up there and it seems to just be a mistake since we know Aya is alive even though Sansa doesn't.

Next thing is about Bran. He reached the wall on the first episode. That's plenty of time for them to send a raven to Winterfell announcing he's alive. Maybe in that letter, Bran asks Jon to stay for a while so he can tell him the news, or at least send a raven to dragon stone now that he's in Winterfell? That would make sense... Another thing that would make sense is for Bran to be more excited about mentioning that their uncle Benjen is still alive but he rather would like to talk about Sansa's wedding.

Another thing I find confusing is why the Ironborn did not meet the unsullied in the sea, where they're strongest. Instead of letting them take Casterly Rock and killing hundreds of Lannister soldiers in the first place. Surely Jaime would prefer that the Ironborn fight the unsullied at sea, where they're strongest and would probably have an easy victory.

Then why did Olenna Tyrell mention that she poisoned Geoffrey when she's still in the mercy of Jaime? The poison may last for hours or days, plenty of time for either Jaime or Cersei to torture her. She's trusting Jamie's good will to not do this, and that's worth nothing when he's backing up Cersei.

Finally Hot Pot told Aya that everyone knows Cersei blew up the Sept. Why does Randyl Tarley, along with so many other lords still support her, better yet, never bring it up when meeting her?

However overall this got my hope back for this show after the disappointment of last episode.

I love Game of Thrones. I love it because of the immersion, the feeling I am experiencing this conflict with my very own eyes but they're losing it. They're losing the tension in every scene because they're completely fighting the unpredictable world of Game of Thrones and it's become boring.

I don't know who this director is or why he's directing the show but he's directed my least favourite GOT episodes. He thinks tension comes from making main characters superheroes. Please, for the love of God, we're not 12 year olds watching superhero movies. We can think logically, and what you've made is far from it. We don't want to see stupid predictable fight scenes which favour main characters.

Before this person directed Aya getting stabbed lethally and being completely fine in the next day, jumping off buildings, killing a superior assassin who slowly chased he,r like the overused cliché and then for plot convenience only, Jaq'uen now regarded her as one of their own. That's not a story. That's ridiculous. SPOILERS Then you have the last scene in this episode. Honestly I liked the rest of this episode. And then, oh boy. There was no doubting Euron was going to win that battle, I'm surprised he did with this director on board. What I thought would be more likely is that he'd rather make Yara momentarily turn into a dragon to fend off Euron's fleet and then everyone returns safely because from my experience, he's that type of director, but he came close. You have none of the crew members noticing the incoming fleet. However I'll let that go since Euron is exceptional on the sea, even if that means something.

Then Euron fills the role of a mortal kombat character. Performing fatalities on the sand snakes. Is this entertaining? I know he's supposed to be a crazy character but this is stupid. I also didn't know he was invincible. Sand Snakes, famous for their poisons have no effect on him, they also all become exceptionally s*** fighters for plot conveniences. The same women that fought and matched Jaime and his bodyguard now cannot 2v1 Euron. And I don't see why he killed the two sands in such stupid manner in the first place while showing mercy to the other 2 and then Yara.

I'm sorry, I'm not watching Game of Thrones anymore. I'm watching mainstream TV shows and movies where they'll go to great lengths to save characters for plot convenience and keep incrimemting the difficulty to unreasonable levels. It's predictable. The reason I hate all other TV shows. No tension is created in the scenes. And it becomes repetitive and boring. Something this director is going to great lengths to try and achieve.

For God's sake. If main characters are crucial to the plot, don't put them in impossible situations, and then unrealistically save them in the last second by a mysterious stranger , or turn them into superheroes. It's not interesting, you're not creative for doing this, you're not making the scene better, I'm not hooked to the screen after seeing it for the umpteenth time.

This show is now overrated, it's as highly rated as the first 3 seasons but comes nowhere close in quality. I don't understand what show these other people are watching because what I'm watching now is not GoT, it's a circus act. This makes me extremely sad because season 6 was horrendous, mostly because of the episode 'No one' but I decided to give it another shot this season and it was going fine until this last scene. This is the type of show you want it to be now? I really just hope the show changes course, and I blame this director who is incompetent and brain dead and gets picked up straight from main stream Hollywood films and makes my favourite show bad. And I don't see them changing anytime soon. RIP to another good TV show ruined by repetitive predictability. There is no excuse for this, not episode constraints because a kid could have directed a better scene than this pompous director. Any true GoT fans who is fascinate by the lore, theories, predictions, characters, history, could direct this better. This is embarrassing to watch now.

For the casual viewer, some scenes are quite surprising, like Jon being a Targaryen. They probably don't even understand the significance of that, or how it happened. They'll probably be shocked when Jaime kills Cersei, along with this director who'll completely misrepresent the characters and their intentions. However for the GoT nerds like me, who have multiple theories, no suspense is created at all. They seem to pick the most popular and easy and obvious theories or plot, and just roll it out. And I fully expect the rest of the show to carry on like this. Basically meaning that the show is obvious, something GoT never should've been and is an embarrassment to George RR Martin.

I no longer am immersed by GoT. The show was very special to me because of the alternate world it posed for me and the alternate universe I was perceiving but now it's just like all other TV shows. I hate reading, like extremely, and with the high quality of GoT, I never read the books but seeing what this show has become, I'll gladly read the books.

This is the worst movie I've ever seen. Or what I saw of it anyway. I watched the first 10 minutes and couldn't bear to see the rest. I was cringing so hard at how this completely obscene junk can be written and accepted. What a joke.

The slowest car in the entire island beats the fastest car just by taking off some bodywork and adding some nitrous. I'm sorry, that's not how cars work. You don't become faster than the other car because you go in reverse and your engine is on fire. This is the stupidest thing I've seen in movies. It's like their holy heroes cannot lose in any circumstance whatsoever and they'll even have a race between a Bugatti veyron and Dom on a bike and he'll cycle faster with the bike being on fire, him doing stunts midair, landing in his neck for bonus points, only to emerge stronger. This is what this movie is. Someone above the age of 12 with half a brain notices how dumb this is and this scene in itself made the other fast and furious movies seem like a documentary. And I disliked the other fast and furious movies because I knew exactly how the movie will end when it started, so predictable. No tension, no suspense, just a terrible cliché plot that can be written by a 6 year old kid.

I'm almost certain that most of the good reviews are fake. I have never stopped watching s movie within 10 mins, and guessing by that, it's probably the worst movie I've ever come across. Don't waste your money, if you can think logically and intelligently in any way, this will be too cringy for you to handle.

This show is absolutely trash and so inconsistent from the first 5 episodes I've watched and have so many questions. Spoilers for first five episodes.

1. The guests seem to be invincible to bullets. However in the 5th episode the guest gets punched and nearly choked to death by a host. WHAT? They are invincible to bullets but somehow can be beaten to death? Can they be killed by knives? The woman responsible for rescuing the woodcutter was terrified of being hit by rocks. So they can easily be restrained and killed slowly and painfully on their so called 'vacation'. So the man in the black clothes is really nothing. He can be restrained permanently and killed. He should've died long ago in this case if the guests can actually die. Which leads me to my next point.

2. The mysterious man in the black clothes went to prison to rescue someone, but he relies on the cigars. Firstly, why did he ask to smoke the cigars on the carriage there? Did he know that person would take both of them and smoke it, not then, but exactly when he was escaping, instead of selling them or knowing full well it was obviously a trap and making him use it first? And if he steals two of what he believed to be the "best cigars", why does he not steal the third one like a normal person would? And then what? Unless he's packing even more cigars, which I doubt, what's his plan? Also why wouldn't they search him and remove his match and gun...

3. I knew this was going to happen but didn't think the show was going to not even try to immerse us. You've set the "real world" as a futuristic place where robots with human feelings are being created on a daily basis. But people are carrying guns in the real world... is that a joke? One of the guards himself said that the robots are controlled by one line of code and he "sleeps with his gun". They've created human robots but they're still using pistols as their weapons? I find that hard to believe. This futuristic inconsistency can be seen everywhere, why do they have an escalator going up like 100 floors? Who thought that would be a good use of people's time, the buildings space, and money?

4. Then you have no security cameras in a place where they know "everything about the workers and guests", so after when one of the hosts runs hundreds of meters through various areas of the buildings, not one person, not one at all finds out that a host went lose and the only two people that know are the two "butchers".

5. How are people at so many places at once? OK, so the man in black clothes killed the most wanted man but he almost instantaneously appears in the town. How did they know he was there that quickly first of all? And if they have a tracker on each host, why did they not find the woodcutter instantly? Furthermore his workers don't seem to recall him missing at all and they're acting completely normally. So do they have to re code them every time something drastic happens like everybody getting killed but one person surviving and running away. For example the boy who saw the person dead. Do they know he saw it? What if they tell someone else? What if they write it down on a piece of flipping paper like that woman who believes she's being resurrected can do and hide stuff?

There's so much more stuff that made me stop watching this awful show. Honestly I loved the show until episode 3 after when the inconsistencies piled on.

What do people see in this episode? It's complete stupid. Last episode, brilliant, unpredictable, good tension, good logic and conclusion.

This episode, hahaha.

Let's start with a terribly choreographed fight scene which looks so terrible and unlike a real fight scene against an assassin so that Sherlock can win of course. Why does he even have a sword, and even though he does, how hard is it to stab someone. What nonsense but I'll let it pass. Then that 'assassin' disappeared.

Now like all terrible TV shows, you followed the path to making all logic go out of the window to keep main characters alive, and I know that. You queue up tense music, they come close to death and bam! They get saved at the nick of time. Whew! I thought they were going to die! For the 100th time this episode. Just not tense, frustrating to watch to see that at the end of every episode, it will be a 'happy ending' for our 'beloved heroes'. It's not like that.

Now more nonsense as Sherlock Holmes breaks into someone's house, finds them murdered and nobody even thinks of suspecting him or charged him for breaking in.

Then the stupid police officers somehow couldn't see 2 exact same defining feature on both of the dead people's leg even after close examination and even though the same bullet wasn't used as the gun, they believed it was suicide and just wanted to believe that.

Then you have an even worse scene where Sherlock and some other guy is trying to protect this women from the assassin, so they have done whatever a clever person would do. Leave her alone unarmed while you run after someone with a gun, great idea. Oh wow! Did you see how close that bullet was to hitting my beloved heroes! Whew! Glad that he missed!!!!! Because an assassin can't hit a bullet, or sneak up on my beloved heroes, but can on the women they're trying to protect. Oh wow, these guys are horrible villains, let's not give a damn about this women's death apart from a sigh even though we are responsible for it. Oh damnit, they gave her the code at the exact wrong time! How are they going to figure out this puzzle now................

Going to a Chinese circus, nice, why is the circus even there? They are hunting for the Jade that is 9 million, not trying to make 100 so the only reason they did it was to lure Sherlock maybe? Oh look Sherlock sneaked in, well at the time, they thought it was John. Anyway why is he sneaking up on these assassins anyway and why haven't they tried to capture the person who they believe is Sherlock. Oh look another terrible assassin who can't fight, oh no! Look they are going to die! The tense music means they will. Oh wait, the other main character came to save the day and nobody else did nothing because they're irrelevant. And somehow nobody locked them inside in order to not let them escape and they got away even though many people want Sherlock.

Oh, let's carry on our evening as normal, and have a date, that's a normal thing to do after they almost died. But because I know the bs this show is they have a 0% of dying anyway so I guess they can celebrate.

Oh my god, someone sneaked up on John, and he is carrying a gun!

Look at this place they taken Jon and his girlfriend, a fire and in a sewer? They really are villains! Oh look doing the same trick to John's girlfriend, that knife that fired off in a few seconds now takes a few minutes to fire.

Sherlock comes on his own, he really is clever, he knows he has a 100% chance of surviving and saving the day and people are now afraid to fire a gun because he said it could ricochet and hit her. Is she that stupid, in a giant tunnel? Somehow Sherlock beats 3 guards and saves John's girlfriend a few hours after the arrow should have killed her. And then it shoots. Wow! Didn't see that coming! Great writing!

And I'm sorry I couldn't watch more, I already lost too many IQ points and didn't want to lose more.

I loved season 1. I watched season 2 straight after it but I was disappointed by quite a lot of things.

Let me start with the positives. Benedict Wong is an incredible actor. He displays so many emotions at once and the unpredictability of him is striking. Most people's acting is good but Benedict Wong stands out. The scene with Kublai and Xiao Zian (the boy) was one of the most touching scenes on TV, if not the most for me and is actually the only fictional death I'm saddened by and I've watched a lot of TV shows and films so well performed. I'm also pleased that the show is different to the history because it's unpredictable but it's more predictable because it's obvious you'll just keep doing series after series after series so you can make as much money as you can.

Now the negatives. It seems that the writers write a story and all logic is just thrown out, no matter how it's executed, you want the final results of your heroes winning, with one or two casualties. Predictable like every bad TV shows which wants to milk out as many series as possible. You put the odds heavily against the main characters favor because you 'think' it makes us tense and you'll get them out of that situation every time and think we'll be shocked,

So season 1 episode 10. Mei tries to escape her captivity. She kills the man serving her food, already a death sentence for her daughter, and then stumbles upon a locked door and the painting. Now if I was Mei, would I not kill Ahmed or seriously injure him and take the keys to leave, or the man I killed before and escape? Ahmed would be the only main character to know (if he was alive). And if he was, why would he give chase? If he caught Mei, she would uncover his plan.

The fight scene between the incredible fighter who was defending the boy( sorry don't know her name) and Mei and Marco was stupid. We see Hundred eyes easily defeat over 10 men and the incredible fighter is as good as him or better as we saw in their sword fight. So what happens? A terrible fight scene. If you need to keep the main characters alive, and we know you need to keep them alive, don't put the odds heavily against them. Mei was obviously not as good as her and Marco even less so, then she for some reason runs away when she is trying to defend the boy and only appears much later to be in full view to allow everyone to happily get away.

The end was even more so stupid. Everyone who is not a main character is treated like they're not people, like they don't have brain cells and can't fight or think. Why on earth are they taking orders from a foreigner who is sitting on the throne and disrespecting the Khan and trying to kill the prince. The Khan's son. Yes your excuse would be, 'they think they're taking orders from the Khan', which brings me back to my point, they have brain cells and only the new main character, the general is shown to have any.

The fights in the wars are more stupid, the not main characters apparently need to attack one by one, have no fighting skill at all, every time so the main characters can easily kill them off. And then a main character finally gets into trouble, and no, he will die, oh look another main character came just at the right moment. Wow I was so tensed up, I thought he was going to die! And oh wait doing it once wasn't enough, let's do it every episode throughout the series.

The main characters appearing at the exact right time to save the day needs to stop. It's not bringing me to the edge of my seat or whatever you think. It's so boringly obvious.

Another things is how Ahmed knew the perfect time to take off the painting so that when Mei brings in Marco, the painting isn't there and for some reason it's too hard for her to say. Ahmed's holding Kublai's head instead of showing the picture so she just says you need to go away which will obviously work.. So we now think that the Mongolian empire is doomed! Oh, come on, I know some bullshit will happen and Ahmed will die. Then somehow nobody else who walked into Ahmed's room saw the striking paintings including Kublai and his wife because that's possible and neither did the brain dead Mongolia soldiers or the person bringing Mei food.

I loved season 1, I didn't like season 2 but I won't mind if season 3 is like this because this has my favorite genres. Medieval and wars. But please, for the love of God do not milk out series. I know every series who will survive, all the main characters apart from 1 or 2 will survive the next season and you'll bring in 2 or 3 more to replace them. You'll being in a new 'villain' halfway through in the next series and I bet you it's the old man. Please change away from what you're planning to do.

All I ever had for Game of Thrones before was praise after praise after praise. It felt real, dark, felt like I was part of it all because people died, good and bad, things happen, good and bad. I hate stories where you're forced to choose sides "the heroes". And whatever happens those "heroes" cannot die making the entire thing stupid, predictable and not worth watching. Game of Thrones WAS different, I looked forward to next episode because I will wonder what will happen, who will die? Now I'm put of Game of Thrones and may not watch it ever again thanks to this episode. It has lost the unique feature which I liked only in Game of Thrones, turned to all other shows, "the hero cannot die".

Let me explain why I think this. Arya, someone training to fight for a long time, knew a much better assassin was chasing after her. Motivated to kill her. Last episode she walks round the street, having a great time, as if she was safe and she got stabbed by the waif. You left all of us thinking, wow, an assassin trying to kill her, she is definitely bleeding to death, no doubt about it. It must be Jaqen disguising as her so that he is able to point out that the Waif is showing emotion and No-one cannot show hate. Or Arya had used some sort of a trick, it wasn't her blood, something she may have picked up.

Nope! Screw you all! Arya is just fine, she managed to reach the set again while somehow he Waif could not see her. Are you serious? She could only hold her breath under water for that long and must have made splashes and the Waif couldn't find her?

Then she has a lethal wound which would have killed anyone in Game of Thrones within 20 seconds. She has had training doesn't mean she is invincible to death. Somehow manages to get to Lady Craine while not bleeding to death. Then a little bandage and some milk of the poppy and she's fine. Her biggest complaint being she doesn't want the milk of the poppy. Hahaha what a joke.

The Waif arrives, so conveniently, at the perfect time so Arya could be half asleep and she could make a loud bang, kill someone she didn't need to instead of just sneaking into Arya's room and slitting her throat. Or entering from the window. The Arya can run just fine, a lethal wound, who cares? The Waif doing some of the shittiest Hollywood running where she runs slow, trying to make it look tense but making it look horrifically awful. And Arya so predictably goes to the dark cave where her sword was.

Now you can look and this and say, 'Oh she planned this all out.' Yep, for this plan to work the way it did, she has to know. 1. Where the Waif would attack her so she can mysteriously disappear into the water. 2. Waif wouldn't kill her there and then, because she is an assassin. And a much better one than Arya. 3. Lady Craine would heal her up, she had a conversation and said 'you're good at this' and then they conversed about how she was good at this and Lady Craine explained why she was good, showing she had no previous knowledge.

4. She would conveniently wake up in time to not die.

5. Run perfectly fine with a wound but also being helped by the fact that the Waif does the stupid walk trying to make it look 'tense'. 6. Get to her little cave. 7.Actually beat the Waif, the Waif might also have lost her eyes and worked much more for them. 8. Not bleed to death after she fell down the stairs and opened up her previous wound when the Waif chased her, which wasn't even shown or healed.

What I found the most sad about this episode was that: Khal Drogo got slightly cut once and died of infection. Roose Bolton who got stabbed once died, within seconds. Arya Stark gets stabbed multiple times by an assassin and she is running the next day.

Now that's not all I got, I was skeptical about the Blackfish dying for nothing, he could have escaped, helped Sansa, maybe get back his castle again, get revenge on the Lanisters. All for the reason that Brienne will "protect Sansa" better than he has.

Tyrion is another topic, I'm sorry, but making Tyrion say things that we would in the modern world doesn't make you a good writer, and doesn't make you clever or witty like you think it does. It makes you the exact opposite. I'm sorry but a few episodes ago they played 'the drinking game' are you kidding me? Now he says a joke about three people walking into a bar.

Gregor Clegane obviously also knows exactly where to go to find his culprits who murdered his 'friend'.

The Daneyrys knows the exact time to arrive to save the day! Another convenient timing when we lost all hope for her!

Thank you to whoever wrote this, you've ruined the best thing I've seen in my life, Game of Thrones.

I highly recommend that you retake this episode and the rest of them because you've ruined Game of Thrones for most people in this episode and the thing is, this will impact all future episodes, not only with the characters that we know are alive, but how I look at Game of Thrones. Not as dark and realistic but biased and awful.

I really don't care that you kill main characters, in fact, I love it because instead of knowing what's going to happen. The show keeps you tensed up. On the other hand when it comes to the Burrows brothers. It does quite the opposite. I thought maybe there would be a change, Lincoln gets captured by about 10 police cars,then it gets confirmed on the radio that he is in fact the most wanted person in the US or maybe the entire world because he was an escaped death row inmate. So, they decide that the best way to carry the most wanted man in the world is in a random police car. And of course, only 1 police car. I thought the show would have got more interesting after seeing the works of the FBI agent and seeing how he carefully picked off 1 inmate after another but instead I was completely repeled of the series showing how biased it is.

One example, throughout the series they put main characters in tough positions, queue up the tense music trying to indicate that they will get caught. But nope, the main characters have teleported away somehow knowing the danger is coming. Like come on, if you're going to overuse that, no one falls for it after doing it once but since almost every TV show and film does it, it's so pointless and predictable.
