I added this to Austin's wall and will place it here too:

I'm not suggesting we say settings like Game of Thrones etc has Game Changers.. just within reason.. one that I'm fighting for is the Peacock Family in X-Files "Home" - X-Files is a dark franchise but the Peacock are definitely Game Changers even with "dark setting" being a thing.. the episode remains the ONLY X-Files episode to ever be banned, is still heavily censored and even the cast admitting "it's awful, even for us".. never again did X-Files go that dark (they also couldn't, due to 90s TV and the restrictions of the age).

basically.. if the events of the episode and those involved go way beyond even the normal darkness of setting.. not just "darker than usual" - I'm talking seriously deviating from the show's "norm".
