I finally saw the last two eps...they were pretty strong until the way end. How lame to bring up Sean's drug abuse yet again and having that devastate Fiona for the 17th time. I was waiting for Frank to bust in with that gun and actually shoot Sean! What was the point of him getting the gun in the first place then?! I was also disappointed the hitman thing didn't go through....LOL. Sorry.

 

I usually don't watch trailers but went ahead with this one. I was glad there was no trace of Sean. I liked Fiona's attitude here and new rules for the fam. Overall, it seems like the quality of the show has gone down a bit. They shot this new season so fast (and still are shooting, if social media activity by the cast is any evidence). I hope I'm wrong. 

 

I grew to really love the V/Kev/Svetlana developments. Kev is really cracking me up. The scene when V told him the truth was amazing and I also loved the middle credits scene when he was making their hook up schedule. LOL

 

Lip alcoholism is really compelling. Kind of wish he didn't go straight to rehab yet

 

Ian? Loving that he's finding his place in the workforce but I'm so bored by him and the firefighter guy together. Can they bring Mickey back? Even if he's a recast

 

Debbie and her baby are preposterous and embarrassing to watch. She is NOT a good Mom and needs to let Fiona and anyone else possible help her. It's pathetic watching her try. I didn't like what I saw of her in that trailer either...a mess!

I actually binge watched these last 3 episodes early this morning! Gotta gather my thoughts but overall I'm really LOVING where the show is at & going, surprisingly. LOVED Fiona's family meeting at the end. Really excited to see where things go.

 

Just have to say...WTF was the point of making Ian's boring guy suddenly bisexual/trifling behind his back like that? And he has HIV too. Does the girl even know? Damn. It was also really unnecessary to have Ian force himself to sleep with a woman. He should've stuck to his heart there

This season is really good so far overall. The latest episode was one of the best in a while. Did y'all see Emmy Rossum directed? Go girl! It was a great Fiona episode. LOVED that scene with her & Lip in the kitchen. Very thought-provoking and needed. 

 

The only thing I don't like is how Fiona & V's relationship has fizzled out & how they've made Svetlana V's new BFF. Disgusting and I still can't stand Svetlana's rank ass! Also I need them to STOP hinting at Kev liking Sve more than V. I changed my mind on this V/Kev/Sve story, it was kinda cute & fun at first but now it's too much. I don't like how V & Kev are so alienated from the Gallaghers these days.

 

Also why did they go and turn Carl's lil GF into a thot? They were cute! This story w/him and her dad bonding? :rolleyes: I mean...it's OK, but I'll pass overall. Boring.

 

ETA:

How could I forget Ian encountering a trans man? Did not see that coming and it was mostly well done, but pretty forced when they brought all of his friends into it too. I don't see this lasting too long, what with what's to come towards the end of the season...

       about it I think Jan is a fine supporting part for a solid daytime vet (probably someone from the P&G soaps), as opposed to someone from the production location who is clearly cheaper. Which seems to govern some casting. I get the rationale, but I would start going through the ATWT/GL, etc. rolodex myself.
    • I dont mind Jan. She's good in the minor capacity she is used. 
    • tbqh I don't care about Jan, I don't care about Ashley and I think Jon Lindstrom as Joey is an acquired taste. Jon is a great actor but certain things are in his zone and then some are not. Some days I find Joey credible and compelling, but the stuff with him hanging around the Golden Corral, grumbling about Doug and bitching at Randy is not amazing. If he had material on par with what MVJ wrote for Ryan/Kevin on GH back in the day it'd be a different story. I do think he has real chemistry with Vanessa, which is in large part due to MVJ clearly molding that character (and hiring an appropriate actor) in the Lucy Coe vein when she reinvented Lucy in the '90s as well. But I am not here to spend 6+ months watching Jon glower a lot (which is what he's doing half the time to carry weak story) and make more vague dire pronouncements while Jen Jacob gets flustered and weepy over "Daddy" or whatever would come of that storyline. Putting them together sounds like a recipe for doom to me. But I may be in the minority on that.
    • I know this will never happen. But... Halle Berry as Dani Dupree(BTG). She would rock this role, it's in her wheelhouse.
    • When I see how bad the Ashley/Derek scenes are, I know there must be a larger purpose and Joey being her father is the thing that makes the most sense.  My take on it is that Ashley knows Joey is her father but doesn't know Joey. Maybe he was there when she was a child or just not around at all but I believe Jan when she says she didn't lie to her daughter about who her father was. Maybe she left him when she discovered his dangerous lifestyle.  I do think they could really jump start the character of Ashley if they hurry and do this. Jan is a great character and her scenes with Ashley have been helpful. This would further integrate Ashley into the canvas and give her something dramatic to do. With her working at the hospital along with Doug, it could lead to complications if she learns Doug is involved with her father. I just need is sooner rather than later because Derek is tanking her character. I need a distraction.
