It's pretty obvious to me that graymess was turned off by the gore part of the previous commenter's statement and not the sitcom part so I'm not sure it matters to them how "excellent" it may or may not be...

But, what do I know?

not obvious at all considering that was only part of the criticism and they did not specifically mention that's why they won't watch.

I said it was pretty obvious to me... Clearly you didn't have the same understanding.

And you are wrong for thinking it was so obvious for the reasons i stated above. you jumped to your conclusion.

My dude the gore in the show is toned down from the comic. It's not trying to be edgy, it's trying to make garth goddamn ennis palatable to more people.

Which has nothing to do with my guess that it's what turned the previous commenter off.

Thanks though.

Yeah I meant to reply to them. Whoops.

Lol... No worries... That makes a lot more sense.
