How To Get Away With Murder: Discussion Thread

They could kill or jail everyone but Keating, Matt McGorry, Connor and Michaela and I would not skip a beat on retooling the show. And I'm being generous. Everyone but Viola is not a factor for me, really. I find it all very disposable but at least the plot is moving and they've given her even meatier material.

You're being VERY generous. They could start over with a whole new cast around Viola next season and I wouldn't bat an eye. I can even remember the names of the characters. If they had to keep one student I'd go with Laurel. She has a pragmatism that the others lack and has been IMO the most competent.

This was a really good episode.

I was not here for Annalise's mother until she revealed she killed the abuser. The scene where she combed her hair was wonderful and I love how we got to learn more about Annalise's past. It definitely has shaped the woman she is today.

Bonnie in the courtroom was cringe worthy. She caught a lucky break with the revelation that the hospital's lawyer and the plaintiff were lovers.

Rebecca's ass is crazy. I knew that once they killed Sam that he was innocent. She played ALL of them with her psycho ass. My heart isn't ready for the finale next week.

That man is just so fine.... I can't take it.

I always had a feeling that Rebecca was guilty. I hope they kill her ass next week and pin everything on her.

They need to give Cicely Tyson a contract. She played the hell out of that role tonight. I need Momma Ophelia to stick around. But with her mother's arrival, I now see why Annalise is the way she is.

This show is such a hot mess but those scenes between Davis and Tyson were perfection. I felt like I was watching a stage performance of something written by Tennessee Williams or August Wilson. I have such low expectations for Shondaland shows but I can't deny that they occasionally hit moments of greatness and that's what this was. Anna Mae getting her hair combed by the mother who killed for her should be on the list of TV's all time greatest scenes. If there were such a list.

And speaking of greatness....

Thank you "scabies infestation" without you this moment wouldn't have been possible.

God I love this show, despite what a mess it often is! I just saw the episode ending with the reveal that Annalise was at the house when Wes went back to get the trophy! YAAAAS. And I was thinking her calling Sam and telling him she was wrong just didn't feel right. Add to that the HOT Viola/Nate fuckfest -- my god, that BOOOOODY -- not to mention Guy From Orange Is The New Black :wub: :wub: :wub:

LOL at Connor covering by telling Oliver he's a drug addict.

    • I've always said that JFP's main problem is that she comes up with some shocking event and she plans around the event but she never thinks much about the emotional fallout for the characters or the fans. That's why so many of her stories don't work and damage her shows. I like your idea about Lando playing the person involved in hitting Maureen. It would have given Peter Simon something to do which is the feeble excuse they gave for killing Maureen off in the first place. Instead, they gave us the dreck they did.  And they were so obsessed with recreating the blackout week that they kept putting characters in fires and blizzards. None of which I saw, but going through the Logan columns I noticed: every few weeks, someone at GL would give an interview to Logan saying GL was going to get better because they had a great new storyline (A fire! A blizzard! A fire!) . Insanity.  
    • @Contessa Donatella, Make sure to cite your sources when making claims such as "apparently she just inked a new deal." This information has not been reported anywhere and is therefore not known to the public, unless disclosed by the actor in question themselves. Once again, stop stating information as fact without providing a legitimate source. What you read or hear somewhere, from either message boards or on social media, does not make it true. This includes information from your "sources."

      Sorry.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieDNct2sgXU  
    • I don't believe it either, @kalbir.  Ironically, I think KL's first producer, Joseph B. Wallenstein, ended up producing "Hotel" as well.
    • Yes, and by the time the 2000's rolled around Katherine was a saint and a dynamic business women. Hard to connect with the drunken lush isolated in her mansion of the 70's.
    • For once, I agree with Maurice.  AMC and OLTL had seen better days, IMO, but to assume that the audience would stick around for "The Revolution" or "The Chew" was pure hubris on the network's part.
    • It is funny to think of how the character of Philip II, and the recasting of Jill, really changed the trajectory of Kay.  One assumes she would've mellowed with time, naturally.  But, as someone who started Y&R @ 1986 (when Brad married Traci), I rarely associate Kay with her more venomous past.
    • At Santa Barbara I think she inherited a very strong structure. I also think it's the first time she exhibited the Peter Principle & was promoted just one step above her level of assured competence. If she'd stayed in Music Production I guarantee you she'd have more awards & also a stellar rep.  Oh, we totally agree then.  Betty Rea GL 1970-1996 & at 82 she died 12-23-99. Worked for the show for 26 years. Shorter time at ATWT. GL had no casting director from 1996 till 1999 when  Rob Decina came on board. (He found Tom Pelphrey at college in NJ.) he was 1999-2009, so bitter ender.  Jill GL 1989-1994, so I would guess that Betty was pretty tired & Jill just ran over her, which probably made her last years miserable because this lady was legendary! All years from imdb which CAN be wrong.
