[quote="Elton John"]So it actually turned out to be good? They didn't butcher Scar? How the heck did you watch it?[/quote]
It's in the Netlify link someone posted a couple comments above. (That's how I watch episodes since I don't have a TV.)
[spoiler]They didn't ruin Scar since they didn't really show him. The whole episode is just a build up to his actual appearance, but they're saving any Scar-related action for at longer arc down the road, which does make sense; they're definitely pacing their execution with this character from a storytelling perspective, so I do have hope that they're trying to do this as right as they can with the premise they're working with. We'll still have to see how they play this whole thing out, but I'm really anticipating what we could see in later episodes. I don't want to get my hopes too high, but I'm more optimistic now than I ever have been with this show. There's definitely been a slight tone shift these past few episodes, and to me this pretty much solidifies it. I can see what they mean by Season 2 being potentially 'darker', or at least more intense.[/spoiler]
