[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 350730, member: 57984"] Really?? I have to accept that. Mostly, I agree. David Jacobs once correctly said that although these shows may have humor and satire underneath the surface, they must be played absolutely straight on the face of it. But I'd argue that Season 10 was not comedy. It was outrageous, but played mostly as straight drama -- which is why it worked. Unlike subsequent seasons, where it [B]did [/B]turn to comedy, and very much [B]didn't [/B]work. [/QUOTE]
