How do they finally give Simone a love interest and then kill him off.

Oh and all they did was exchange Ethan for Josh.

There was a rumor a few months ago about him being axed so who knows if it's true yet. But I have a very strong feeling that Ethan will turn out to be the father of Kendall's baby. And I can't talk about my theory just yet. Maybe next week.

I'm intrigued

Hopefully they fire the actor who plays Josh also and get rid of the character, it won't happen but that would be nice. Simone can have Jonathan (Aidan who is working as well with Erin as he did with Anita, David, etc...) if they stop the creepy thing with Lily, they had good chemistry and he's a damned-Lavery, they're never back-burned.

I could possibly get with Jon Boy and Simone, IF he stops acting like a 15 year old.

Jon Boy was supposed to be Simone's love interest after Maggie but plans changed. Maybe they are going back to them.

IF he stops acting like a 15 year old.

Of course, I agree and I think if they stop the more creepy than not Jily (if you're going to pair Lily with an older man - Aidan!), they'll also stop his 7-15 year old crap.

Good Riddance....I can't stand Ethan. I love Simone and thankfully she can play opposite someone who isn't as stiff as a board.

You can see them already laying the groundwork for this exit, Ethan is turning bad again and all of the sudden getting hung up on Kendall since Zach is with her. Poor Simone! I liked Ethan with Kendall but he's been meh for me ever since last winter with his revenge false accusations of murder towards his father. Never really felt him since then. I have enjoyed Seethan and can only hope Simone will get something else to do..... ah well regardless storylines that revolve around a big gathering are always interesting to watch, like Erica's ball will be and this explosion....February sweeps I think will be very interesting on AMC.

Aaaww that's too bad! I loved Ethan!

I'm not surprised (nor upset) that Ethan is getting written off.

However, that said, AMC could have done SO MUCH with his character, considering he is Zach's son and has a past with Kendall. He was a character with a lot of untapped potential, but the writers, for whatever reason, refused to go there.

I just have a feeling that his (rumored) death will be a plot device for Zendall/Ryan. Zach, having lost the only child he has and barely knew, will grow attached to Kendall's baby--much to the chagrin of Ryan.

A shame, when I start to like him they get rid of him.

He wasn't a good actor, but I thought he was sweet with Simone.

Why couldn't it have been Ryan?

Ethan was boring. James Scott was an ok actor. Now it's time to get rid of Simone, Anita, Aidan, and the whole Lavery clan.

ITA.

How about mass carnage? Ethan, Amanda, Jamie, Anita all killed in this explosion but no not possible because we need Anita to help tend to the sick. You know as she says "We have lives to save and blood to draw".... seems that's all she does now and keeping tabs on her boss, Dr. Joe. Poor Anita.......
