That there's a specific thread set up for non-book-readers makes it different, IMO. Pretty much a #### move. A normal show, I say it's fair game as soon as the episode airs.
Agree 100%.
The thing about the show is that it really isn't about what happens but how it happens. As far as the story-lines go it's a pretty average show. Way too long-winded and melodramatic. In many ways it is worse than "Downton".
But the acting, action, scenery, costumes, dialog etc are fantastic
. Not to mention some pretty good medieval tittays.
