ETA:

caitri 's take on everything that was wrong with the print shop scenes in ep. 307.

Came across this review of episode 306. The author's issues differed from mine -- she was "book blind" and it took her several viewing to let go of her book-related expectations and appreciate what the writers and producers had actually done. I was not book blind -- I think I'm pretty good at accepting the adaptation as a separate entity -- and to be honest, most of the time, I think the show is actually better than the books because they leave out a lot of the stupid stuff and make the characters more realistic. I was a victim of the all the hype and heightened expectations surrounding this episode.

Anyway, it's still an interesting read, and the comments are interesting too because there are a lot of other viewers who felt the same way on first viewing of 306.
