I'm glad that they're giving Bonnie more to do, but it feels weird to have two rape survivors be OK with encouraging a client to falsely accuse someone of rape.

Fitz has largely been inflated and set up by people who wanted and needed him to be president for their own agenda.

Everything she did was for herself, though. Fitz was a means for her to become First Lady.

I'd love to actually love to ask the writers if they really believe this Mellie as a victim angle.

They just come in my mouth, come in my mouth, come in my mouth, and then it was over.

I want Scream Queens to come back. It combined bad acting, reality TV nonsense, and everyone treating a small role in the Saw movies as if it were a pathway to an Oscar. And the best part was that everyone was so serious about it.

And he was also a gay man dying of AIDS on Designing Women.

Sandra was also pretty loyal. If she made an alliance with you, she stuck to it until the alliance fell apart and then she became a roaming free agent.

Given how the show is in love that pairing, I'd see Connor going to turn himself in only to find that Oliver already has, insists that it's his fault he's in that situation (Mentioning his feelings of guilt for Connor having HIV) then Oliver gets some sort of speech about how he loves Connor and he willingly did…

I don't know how many times this game made me say "Oh shit. Fuckfuckfuckfuckfuck" when some monster jumped out at me or I started getting swarmed.

It just feels kind of lazy to use it to justify a female character being complicated.

But the show has presented the idea that Fitz is the person the government needs because he's apparently a great president, but he's passive. It's not about him accepting advice it's about him basically just doing as he's told to do.

It makes him seem passive.

Fitz's presidency is really mishandled because part of the noble sacrifice that Olivia thinks she's making is based on this idea that he's a great president that America needs.

Wes as a character makes no sense and neither does Annalise's interest in him (Beyond trying to keep him happy so he doesn't fuck up her life).

That's my problem with Annalise as a whole, she's such an ambiguous character so we really don't know how she feels about people, which makes the relationships on the show hard to become invested in them.

I assumed it was because Bonnie would either have to be drawing on real life trauma or be an amazing actress when lying to Asher.

I know it happens and it's horrible, but isn't it a bit tiring for the show to resort to rape as back story twice to explain why two of its female characters are damaged?

I think because it puts everything the show does under a microscope. You want the show to be respectful and not exploit Laverne Cox for being trans, but at the same time it's Rocky Horror, so it's supposed to be wild and out there.

I think Damages season 1 is the most successful use of the back and forth timelines I've seen on a show. You have to do a lot of character work to make the past and present versions of the characters feel different, but shows like Quantico or How To Get Away With Murder focus too much on the OMG aspect of killing…
