You're right to call me out on that. I think I just don't want Connor built into someone so unsympathetic, which, for me, he is right now from his actions in this episode — although given this show's pace and general crazy, I'll feel less ooked about the whole storyline by the end of tomorrow. But one scene, just one,…
I don't think I said anywhere that Connor and Michaela aren't sharks, or dangerously ambitious and fiercely competitive. But they are also being drawn into full characters with motivations beyond the most obvious, I hope. Connor figured Aiden hadn't told Michaela about it and once he knew for sure, he still went ahead…
The show neither condoned nor criticised the reaction, it just presented it as it was. And frankly no one came out of it looking particularly great but of all of them at least Michaela's and maybe Aiden's (we don't get much of a window into him at this point) responses made emotional and character sense. And I think…
I wonder if detective dude is setting Annalise up. Since she messed up his job and he's probably in the doghouse at the precinct or whatever. This show's going to get really crazy in the back end of the season, I just know it.
I think if anyone needed to mention bisexuality, it needed to be Aiden. We don't know what his sexuality is - and I, for one, am okay with it being fluid (as sexuality is) and undefined (as it is for many people whether they're grappling with it or not) for now (emph). The show's clearly going to delve deeper into his…
Ditto on all counts. It's really fascinating watching that slow descent or self-realisation. Wes' big speech this episode is just begging for him to wake up someday down the line and realise that he is the one standing up for all the rich and privileged he once despised. And I'm so into that.
Still loving this show. I liked Wes' speech about justice and not letting The Man, so to speak, win because of money/power/privilege. The episode, I think, was really tight in all the intercrossing themes and how they came together for different characters in different ways.
Same on Roy. I can't believe we still have to deal with him and his eyebrows.
True, Oliver/Salmon Ladder is the hottest thing this show's ever pulled off. Diggle/Felicity are lovely. Oliver/Diggle are pretty great too for that matter - at least he's consistently never here for Oliver's crap.
I'm down for Felicity/Ray if that makes a difference. Oliver/Forever Alone is the true 'otp' of the show.
Felicity/Oliver is the height of pandering. It's a real shame because any time writers start to do that, a show plummets in quality. Even though I have many many Whedon problems (his treatment of Cordelia, anyone?) but I'd prefer a little of his, 'never give the fans what they want' approach on this show. Especially…
I'm mad. If capital letters weren't overly aggressive, I'd use them. I cannot believe they just killed Sara like that. What are they thinking? At least save that for mid-season and don't fridge your women characters, even if it is for another woman character. Why the episode spent so much time dawdling with that trite…
I support this re-naming.
All I took away from this episode is that we need more Mills' sisters everything and Hawt - excuse me, Hawley is hot, wouldn't mind him giving some more history lessons in his budget Indiana get-up.
Yah, me too on everything. I really want Connor and Wes (my transparent eye candy agenda) and Wes/Connor/Michaela to have more scenes together, and just the murder quartet doing even the most mundane things together so badly. Beardy Associate makes me laugh in half his scenes because I keep expecting Glory from BTVS…
Peter Nowalk, you mean. Shonda is executive producing, she's not the one writing show to show. That's Nowalk and his team. How do people not get this yet?
Also Jennifer Connelly.
I agree. I think we should live with him as much as possible because the transition into what he's going to become will be interesting to watch if a little tragic, really. When he's full-on Annalise 2.0, everyone will miss baby bird-puppy Wes so badly, it'll be hilarious.
I'm guessing Laurel is 'Frank's Girl' (*gag*), didn't someone call her that this episode?
