1. Really? That stinks.

The last two episodes were horrible. I have loved most every episode of this show up until these last two episodes. All that rape and torture in the dungeon was just too much! We didn't need all of that to understand what happened! sheesh. That's NOT what I watch this show for. Starz and Ron Moore had better wise up. They're ruining a good thing. (I also could care less about seeing the bad guy full frontal--just gross.)

I haven't read the books. Was this described the same way in the novels (drawn out graphic rape and torture)? Maybe so, but I just can't imagine it. This was worse than some horror shows! <gag>
