You know what would really be a kicker? Next weeks episode is back to normal, ala Randy and Sharron's argument how everything just repeats next week, like nothing happened.

The next episode wont air till Oct 5th.

Maybe I'm just not reading into it as much as some others are, but I'm sure they'll find a way back to "normal." They're pretty good at that kind of suspense... remember the first time we were supposed to find out who Eric's dad was, and instead of the second half of the episode, they aired an entire half hour of Terrance and Phillip [making everyone wait another week]? Classic, IMO.

I'm definitely in suspense, but not really "worried" about it [the show ending]. If it does, it's been a hell of a run. They've done other movies (one of which was a musical), so I don't think that's really a good sign of the show ending. See: Cannibal the musical, orgasmo.

I've never been a huge fan and don't follow the show much, but I've seen dozens and dozens of great episodes throughout the years. I'd say this was one of them, as depressing and weird as it was. But yeah, shortly after the episode ended my friends and I talked about how long the show has been going, and I can't help but find myself associating it with the likes of the Simpsons, Family Guy, and whatnot sometimes. It just might be best to put it to rest sometime soon.

No shit! I just started watching that a few weeks ago, and it is freaking amazing. I absolutely love it. I'm just miffed about what happened at the end of that episode. I was hoping for a Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves ending where all shit breaks loose and the wrong was righted, but it was the exact opposite. :evil: :cry:

I haven't read the books, so it's all new to me. I just hope that young girl (also in the last scene) takes f'ing VENGEANCE.

Yup, I was really trying to make this spoiler free.


As for South Park, I thought this season has been incredible so far... aside from this last episode. It was way too depressing for South Park. On the other hand, Randy might become be heavily featured for a few episodes and it could turn out to be AWESOME. Imagine all the shit he can get into now!

Game of Thrones is amazing indeed. It reminds me of Battlestar Galactica in that it is a harsh show that is not afraid to show the worst of humanity. Game of Thrones takes it to another level though. I find it interesting how they've been keeping the fantasy, supernatural stuff in the background so far, but it looks like we'll see more of that going forward. Yeah, you know who really does deserve some vengeance. I pretty much know for certain now that no character is safe from death on this show. People say that about a lot of shows, but there are always characters you know are safe until a series finale comes along. It's just BS when they say no one is safe. Not the case with Game of Thrones though. Wow

No offense to the fans, but South Park lost me years ago.

I won't miss it if it goes.

I find it amazing this show still exists.
If each mistake being made is a new one, then progress is being made.

Exactly. I was PISSED when that character died, and surprised they actually killed them off. It's now clear that they are willing to kill anyone off in that show at any time.

There have been some classic episodes over the last few seasons. I have faith they will turn it around.
