Agreed. That last season was awful.

Yep. And with GRRM not even finishing the books, I don't trust that the entire problem was only on those two idiot showrunners. Don't trust HotD at all on landing the ending, and considering they are keeping GoT with its trash ending as "canon" for the future of the same world that HotD takes place in, I don't even care about it in the first place. How can anything on HotD even matter or make sense in the context of the non sense that happens in the future?
But in response to the OP - yes season 4 was great. And it was the last great season too :(

Yes, I loved the scene where he brought a case of beer and asked two questions and suddenly the marine can finally talk about his past.
The show is very thin on drama or any "heavy shit".

Well it's not like the writing can get any worst... Can it?

That’s just not true. Plenty happens, some of it wasn’t well written but it doesn’t distract IMO from how amazing S4 is. I agree with OP

No, it's "I don't know, F[REDACTED]"
It's burned into my brain

I just misunderstood you, nothing to be sorry for. But I agree with you about there being a lot of distractions in the world.

The “oh my god I can’t drive” bit from a few episodes was great

Imagine if they cast him as a Dr. Manhattan-esque hero.

Sorry. I didn't mean for it to be about you. I can speak from personal experience, and I don't even engage in most of the distracting activities. There's endless movies, TV, music, podcasts, the etymology of words, etc. It can keep me forever occupied, but it's not good for dusting off my TV boxsets.

The smart move would be to travel as part of the advance team. If you're going to get sick, do so early on so you'll hopefully be over it and unlikely to have a recurrence once you move into production with everyone on site.

Oh sorry for my previous statement then, I can get a bit defensive sometimes.

Samuel L. Jackson.
Although Kevin Pollak (66) is also almost the same age Jack Lemmon was (68) when he made the first film.
I'd also be down for a Patrick Stewart/Ian McKellen version. A British take on it would be an interesting element that would help to reinvigorate the material as well.

Not you. In general. I didn't get a smart phone until 2021. I don't give my number out, and I have no real social media. But still... it was much easier to invest my time elsewhere without it. I've knocked over rewatches of Cheers (11 seasons) in 13 days, and Seinfeld (9) in 8. When I want to get back to that, I'll probably put down my phone permanently.

Interesting idea, other than spoilers I feel like this could be a fun way to experience a show.

Goddamnit, people please. No one asked about this. I get that you want it to be the new/even older "Leo cut his hand", but please stop. It doesn't have to be thrown into every thread about Ford.
