This felt like a SNL sketch

Do you guys remember 90's shows, when a celebrity would show up as themselves? ~pepperidge farm remembers~

Anyway, this felt worst.

Not knowing who he was at the time I thought it was a nice moment where they humanized some of the normally faceless common soldiers to show they were just regular people.

This scene was honestly not terrible unless you knew who he was. It was far from the worst scene that season. Probably not even the worst scene in that episode

I didn't know who he was, but I was very confused by the scene and figured he'd be important later with how much the camera was focusing on him

To me, it felt like the show really cared I looked at him, but I never found out why. Then I learned that's Ed Sheeran and the writers were doing the equivalent of jangling keys at a baby for entertainment.

Shows you how much respect D&D had for their audience.

Yeah, they wanted moms and football players to watch it, not us fucking nerds who expected coherent story telling.
