In Polite Fight, we examine the cinematic storytelling of our favorite TV shows, sometimes even fighting over them—politely, of course. We don’t usually discuss Looney Tunes and Game Of Thrones in the same breath.

John and Gus also debate a thread-pulling moment for Cersei Lannister, and they quarrel over the episode’s much-discussed Jon Snow scene, with Gus wondering why everyone had to leave the room for the big moment.
