Members Skin Posted October 17, 2014 Members Share Posted October 17, 2014 (edited) Harry Potter boy and his girlfriend are killing me with their vacant stares. I want both of them off the show. Seriously why is he so stupid? The actress from Weeds is the guest star. I'm happy about that, she's a fun comedic actress. Connor has become my second favorite. Love their new nicknames, the Ice King and Prom Queen. Edited October 17, 2014 by Skin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted October 17, 2014 Members Share Posted October 17, 2014 I did not buy Harry Potter Kid in his rant to Keating about the poor, poor drug addict he has a hard-on for. That was Cliche Network TV 101, bad writing and he delivered it badly. I lost a lot of respect for Keating when she went for the cliché and took that case. I don't remember/care about any of the other kids except for the gay guy and the fratboy. The chick insecure about her bicurious man is too over the top. This is junk TV I am watching for Viola Davis, it's slick but it's too frantic and not rocket science. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted October 17, 2014 Members Share Posted October 17, 2014 (edited) Ok, I lied. I turn on the show and Connor is banging another dude. I will give the producers credit for bringing frank depictions of gay sex to broadcast TV, even if there's no substance to any of it. The ratio of gay-to-straight sex on HTGAWM is high. But wow, the acting is baaaad. Like syndicated adventure series in the early '90s bad. Connor's conquest's speech before he fell out the window was just sub-amateurish.

Members Vee Posted October 17, 2014 Members Share Posted October 17, 2014 Connor was really OTT last week, too. It's a bit much like GH - if every person is either OTT bitchy or boring wallpaper I can't remember (or Viola Davis), what's there to watch but a circus?* * - see also: Ryan Murphy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Skin Posted October 17, 2014 Members Share Posted October 17, 2014 I like that they are developing each of the characters -- specifically Connor and Micheala episode by episode. This episode highlighted Connor, the previous episode highlighted Micheala, the episode before that the moral one and the premiere centered around Alfred. The guest star, who played the assistant was really bad. This show reminds me a bit of Nip/Tuck. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ranger1rg Posted October 17, 2014 Members Share Posted October 17, 2014 The assistant who killed himself was decent until that last scene -- then he wass all kinds of awful. The whole stock broker storyline ended lamely. Just a mess of a story with two supposedly brilliant brokers becoming morons when police asked them questions. The Twitterverse was going nuts over the show, the ending, Viola removing her makeup, and those last 9 words. People are falling all over themselves to praise this show, and while it's decent, it's not THAT good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted October 17, 2014 Members Share Posted October 17, 2014 (edited) I haven't finished watching last weeks episode or this weeks but I agree. I have a feeling this show will start losing steam real fast. It is an ok show but nothing great like everyone in the media wants us to believe.

Members ThePrinceOfSunspear Posted October 17, 2014 Members Share Posted October 17, 2014 The make up scene was a little crazy for me and yes her statement to her husband was just chilling. The look it absolute exhaustion on her face was what got me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members London Posted October 17, 2014 Members Share Posted October 17, 2014 I will wait for the day d**k can be said on network television. That was simply an awesome scene watching her take off all that stuff and then saying that to her husband. He seems like the type that would have you sleep with him in order to raise your grade from a F to an A or B+ depending on how good he thought you were in the sack. I so need Connor to prove he's worth more than simply sleeping with people in order to get information. He reminds me of the people that f**k for musical tracks in hopes that it'll be a hit and boost them to stardom. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted October 17, 2014 Members Share Posted October 17, 2014 Viola is the absolute saving grace to ABC Thursday nights! The last scene was just so powerful. Removing all of the armor and stripping down to her most vulnerable self as only Viola Davis can?! Wow! Otherwise, NONE of the supporting cast moves me. I do like the hubby, tho. The case of the week is weak, especially when you have so many other dramas doing them. I wish Elizabeth Perkins was on my screen more in anything. Last time her saw her wonderful ass was on The Closer! That Emmy is Viola's! Next week looks like "don't miss it or die". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members London Posted October 17, 2014 Members Share Posted October 17, 2014 She is but I think they knew that when they cast her... she's much like Octavia in Red Band Society. She's the saving grace and the one that captivates you when you watch the show everything else is just drivel and boring. See the supporting cast, I agree with you but I'm most intrigued by Laurel... but like someone else said on another place I go. I fear they may do something with her that'll make me be like meh. But I do like Laurel a lot. I liked when Annalise encouraged her to speak up and have her voice heard because she liked her ideas. EP is simply awesome and needs a television vehicle of her own. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
