    I’m usually fine giving the benefit of the doubt, but this comment was in direct response to a scene from the show that was absolutely blatant, so they had to wilfully ignore that.

      Fair. There’s misremembering something from your childhood and then there’s ignoring evidence that’s right in front of you.
