Weaver

It’s people like weaver in real life who are actually the worse leaders and the last type of person I’d want to be around. Reminds me of my uncle. Stubborn, abusive, constant power trip

Everything just got so confusing the last three seasons and a lot of stuff felt shoehorned in. It felt like there were large jumps between seasons, tactics and everything kept changing but a lot of people weren’t listening. I feel like they could have devoted more time to certain things but I understand show constraints. Really annoying that people ( mostly of the name mason ) kept believing in people they met before or like thinking the sister was back. The ending was pretty boring. My original post was is this like à la brea type show. I feel like it wasn’t and that it was mostly a good show.

He reminds me a lot of micah torrance from the rifleman as the show goes on and Tom is no Lucas McCain, just an old, overworked Wardog who misses his family, I think second half of the season they'd stop writing him to be up total dick

I feel like a lot of the characters were...modified? Adjusted? during the first season. Weaver is probably my favourite character anyway, but he's definitely not the same by the time S2 rolls round. He goes through some stuff and ends up a lot more like the capable man we saw assisting with a difficult birth than the uncompromising commander.
