Seems like you reviewing the plot only. What about the perform1ances, which are wildly uneven? And the clothes/makeup, especially Taraji's & Gaboure's!

Yes, not a 20something craze like Friends on the mobile is.

Yes, " Moms should be able to enjoy rap, too."

How about "jokes/situations I thought were funny the first five or six times but are now boring & predictable to me?"

"Cheers" references would be just a bit less boring & cliched than "Friends" references.

Clever analysis on your part as to what the storytellers were trying to do, but the serial killer/assassin/sociopath Frank seems like cheap thrills when he functioned under such discipline for so many years(from Wes's birth to death—how old was he on his birthday?) under the thumbs of Sam & Annaliese.

Yes, they were so convincing in their brief domesticity.

As embodied by Viola Davis, but not necessarily as written.

Yes, somehow she "settled" for Sam, but she insists on treating Nate like a booty call.

Even the makeup! which was striking & such a change for the character!

Yes there is. And "the black community has as many subgroups & opinions within them as does "the hispanic community" or "the asian community" or "the white community."

When the creeper tried to joke with the Keating 5 in the courthouse hall etc. they brushed him off like they did Asher in previous seasons, which highlighted how much like Asher he was.

I love Gordon, but he can be a self-righteous whiner, and may have been as much motivated by jealousy of his wife for being in the center of the action/anticipated success as feeling warm and fuzzy toward his new best bud Cameron.

Dennis, weren't the Robbie monologue, hot woman with unmacho man and hot for teacher/librarian sketch all retreads with no new jokes? They seemed so predicable & unlaughable. Boring and disappointing when the new writers had all summer to come up with less hackneyed ideas of how to be funny with an actress who was…

Yes!

Yes, the Afrikaans government controlled where you could live, who could marry, what education & work you could get based on skin color & tribal origin, and of course had an occupying army to enforce it all.

Suffering was his schtick.

But Christians follow the New Testament!

Brilliant response to an insidiously polite dismissal. And, like the essentially condescending dismissal, it can be read/said with a gentle caring smile!

Glad to hear I'm not the only one plagued with infuriating internal autocorrect.
