I agree with that. In those last seasons, they really started to portray Charles in such a positive/noble way to possibly reform public opinion about him. I don't think you can trust anything in that show. I treated it as fiction.

I would hardly say the first four seasons were fact-based. It's just that we don't really remember, so they got away with it. But I have read plenty of articles saying how even in the seasons preceding the Diana years, they fudged the facts considerably to suit the story they wanted to tell. I...

The s**t umpiring is killing this game.

If TBone, Tuohy, and possibly Stanley retire at the end of this season, then I could see the Cats offering Mitch another year if his body is holding up. I think the Cats would prefer to space these exits out some to allow for other players to fill those roles with that senior support still in...

Tales of the Empire were awesome.

The season has been OK so far. The storyline is often highly predictable, which means the writing has been mediocre overall. It's like, instead of going out with a bang (given it's their last season), they've decided to play it safe with the plot and stick with the common/cliqued tropes. But...
