quote:Oh please. We all agree that the writers do a great job with this show. That's why we watch it. But let's not pretend that this show is some esoteric masterpiece that requires a high level of sophistication to properly view.
I would expect a fan of this show to understand nuance. Words have meaning.
I actually don't think it's a ridiculous tangent when you're talking about this show. What they've done in getting the audience to root for and identify with the bad guys over the good guys is a big aspect of what makes it great TV.
You're attempting to pass off semantics as "nuance". Words indeed do have meaning. "Other than" is merely a circumlocution of the use of "only".
