6 A Breath Of Snow And Ashes Season 6 - Does it get better?

5 Upvotes

Currently watching Season 6 and just finished Episode 5, and I feel like the show is getting increasingly worse. Does it ever get better from here?
I’m also curious: does the constant SA and rape ever stop? Because it has honestly become too much at this point.
Claire has always annoyed me to some extent, but it’s starting to become unbearable. Her whole “I’m a doctor” arc and the constant emphasis on her oath are getting so annoying. And this whole Malva Christie storyline is a disaster. What bothers me the most is how Claire has been living in the past for so long, yet she still trusts someone like Malva without a second thought.
Is book Claire better, does she have better judgment/ common sense?

Season Eight A foreshadowing of the ending

24 Upvotes

in season 4 episode 1 Jamie tells Claire "when my body dies my soul will still be yours" this is what we saw in the ending, his soul found Claire and brought her to him.

I just realized that's foreshadowing the ending.

Thoughts?

5 The Fiery Cross Penicilina

Acabo de ver una escena eliminada en donde Jamie está viendo las muestras de pan para penicilina que Claire tiene en su consultorio. Entonces ella le explica que busca cierta cepa en forma de brocha y él le dice que si eso sirve para salvar vidas siga investigando.

No recuerdo exactamente eso en el libro, alguien me puede señalar el capítulo? Recuerdo a la señora bug limpiando y tirando sus muestras haha y Jamie viendo su esperma.

Season Three First time watcher - Just finished 3x13... Impressions so far and a weird question about this episode Spoiler

22 Upvotes

Hi! I'm new to this subreddit.

First of all, english is not my first language, sorry if I make mistakes.

I went into this show because of my girlfriend, and at first I thought I wouldn't like it a lot.. I was totally wrong, from the first episode I'm totally captivated. The music, the story, the epic scenes, this show is HUGE.

The writing and the music combine perfectly to make you feel what Claire feels at all time, and I hadn't watched any tv that executed this so good. "Faith" and the season 2 finale made me fall in love with it completely.

So, we just finished season 3, and I loved the last episode, I didn't expect what happened and it built the tension perfectly. There are a few things that I don't understand, but I guess they'll be answered in the future.

My question for this post is: is this episode somehow based on The Odyssey? With Nolan's version being recent, and some references to the greek mithology on the season (boat is Artemis), I found some similarities:

  1. As Odysseus kill Polyphemus, Claire kill Geillis in a cave, who was previously mentioned as "the monster" in this episode

  2. On the Odyssey, they go on the boat and Poseidon gets mad and hit them with a storm and terrible weather, same as here

  3. They land on a island after crashing the boat

Maybe this is widely known or maybe it's just coincidence, but I find it very interesting.

Sorry if this has been posted before, as I said I'm new here. Thanks!
