Yeah, and if they don't want to watch, that's fine too, and if they want to talk about why, that's also fine, but I think that why is at least a more interesting conversation if it's based on what exists, not hypotheticals. I also have a problem with people calling RTD homophobic. If they want to discuss the possibility he didn't necessarily consider how killing off a queer character would read in teh context of a homophobic culture, that's fine, but he's arguably done more for gay people on television than anyone else out there, and there needs to be a certain acknowledgement of that.
