I can suspend my disbelief that dragons are alive and witches give birth to shadow babies, but I can't suspend my belief for long that a mass murderer and cause of almost all a person's unhappiness is that person's best friend currently and there are no qualms about it. There's something that has to make you stop and think, "All of these people are going to save a man who was just about to kill al of them, no questions asked." A human being at least wavers at the thought. Well, personally I just ignore that, as I feel it is like that on every tv show. Characters never stop and think, they just do, because the plot demands it. I much prefer that over the alternative, which is a show almost no one would actually watch, where characters carefully think and talk through all the decisions they make. That may be more realistic, but when you have 43 minutes to tell a story, you just don't have the time for that. And people obviously don't want to watch that, because if they did, they all the shows would do that, and they wouldn't get cancelled. And the truth is, slower shows and ones that don't have the action and plot moving rather quickly are the ones that are more likely to get cancelled. And that's where I learn to accept it. Sometimes it just gets to me, but that's because we all have different levels of SoD in different areas.

For example, that deled scene Adam tweeted out tells me that they do have human interactions and it's only unfortunate that it got cut, but I understand that. Just sometimes it feels like they delete or cut seemingly important things.
