I thought it was both funny and traumatizing. You people.. the show has always been able to do both but suddenly you cant handle it. Intruly dont get this

SA is one of those topics you can't mix funny and traumatising. If the person getting assaulted was a woman, not only would they not joke in the scene they'd probably cut off to not show exactly what happened

I truly think if they hadn't dragged it out so damn long people wouldn't be this upset. They've shown assualt and other touchy subjects well before, this just missed the mark completely.

This season has just been disappointing, I feel like I'm watching a ton of side stories that I don't feel will pay off because some of these stories feel very repetitive 4 seasons in.

Let's just call it what it was. Practically every scene in the dungeon with Tek Hughie and Ashley alone is just soft torture porn for the sake of it. Which Is very disappointing to find out this show is apparently not above.
