  1. I love how close the entire cast seemed to be. It really was unique and paid into the shows success. I just listened to the one with Sarah Chalke and she’s so funny. They all seem quite similar to who they played.

  2. I do agree that it would have limited Jo’s storyline potential massively. Ironically I think this has been one of her best seasons. The best Alex exit would have been for both of them to leave together. Had Chambers given any notice of his plans maybe they could have done that. He didn’t though and unfortunately there were limited options. I think having Jo more involved in his decision would have been more realistic though ie they mystery being she disappears herself for a few weeks and comes back with the letters and admitting her and Alex both agreed he should stay leaving him status with Izzie open ended. At least that way we could buy they came to the decision together and there could have been better closure for Jo then what she got.

  3. Looking at the trailer I’m assuming Zach and Kelly stayed together but Slater and Jessie didn’t. It looks good. I don’t think anyone would be watching for the new kids though. It’ll be like the 90210 reboot where everyone tunes in to see old cast members and then tunes out again when they filter them out.

  4. I would have thought Teddy. As for some reason Greys will just never get rid of Owen no matter how stagnant the character gets and I just think they’ve written Teddy into such a corner that I’m wondering if it’s just to kill her off and then watch how it impacts the other characters.

    Tough for the Jolex shippers, but the fault is really on this show being on for too damn long. If it ended 5 seasons ago, everyone would've pretty much gotten what they wanted. I fail to see how any ending will be satisfying now. lol 

    Agreed. To be honest it sucks to ship any character on this show. With the exception of Linc/Amelia every ship has been butchered beyond recognition. Every character for that matter.

  6. Re Phoebe learning French didn’t she tell Brad Pitt’s character Will that she never went to high school but a few of them used to meet behind a dumpster to learn French.. “Bonjour”..

  7. Honestly I think Kim did the franchise a favour by refusing to the another movie. The movies are awful and take away from how good the series was. I thought SATC had one of the best series finales on tv where every characters story was wrapped up wonderfully. The movies undid all that in my eyes.

    But, Big is a possessive, jealous asshole even though Carrie and Big aren't even dating -- ???   since when is he like this?!!

    I felt like this was just for PLOT reasons so Sam would give that speech about him messing Carrie around and Maria would kiss her.

  9. If it weren’t for the fact that I can’t look at Wyatt or Darlene without feeling so sick and reminded of that sex scene I think Darlene would have been one of my top characters this season. She’s absolutely batshit but she gets shit done.

     I always thought part of his attraction to her was their shared sense of humor.  And it was obvious here.

    Agreed. I loved the light hearted scenes with them. Especially after they’d broken up, the affair had happened and ended and they were just friends. I was rooting for them of course but I loved those moments because Carrie wasn’t so insecure around him.

    Yeah, really. His performance was intuitive and committed and devastating. 

    Agreed. I wonder if he’ll get nominated for anything?

  12. Finally got around to seeing this. Excellent performances. I didn’t watch it for a long time because I found the awards campaign so tacky with them bringing Harding to awards shows etc. Still don’t buy the poor Nancy victim but an excellent watch.

    This goes back to why I hate the fact that they killed off Olinsky and turned Antonio into a drug addict. Those guys were the veterans to keep the others in line when Voight wasn't there. Now it's like Voight is running a unit of high schoolers trying to keep them all in line by himself.

    This is the ultimate issue with the show. The first three seasons were gold because while you had the Lindsay/Halstead connection I never felt it interfered with their professionalism. Burgess/Ruzeks did but at least it was always called out and Burgess wasn’t on the squad then. Even the Roman/Burgess hook up felt organic As the short lived fling it was if not a bit far fetched. 
     

    All characters in the unit were strong and had different backgrounds which came into play at different times. They also weren’t killing/burning/raping family members left right and centre to service soecial crossovers.

    Now it’s like One Tree Hill: The Police Force.

  14. But was the issue not that he wouldn’t stay there? As much as Ben kept telling everyone how sorry he was etc he also kept ignoring all the warnings and made it impossible for them to help him.

    The best place for him was the hospital and it was Ruth who set the events into motion when she got him out. I don’t get why she wouldn’t leave him there except maybe as Wendy said she didn’t know him as well as her so was taken in by his pleas trust he being out was the better option.

  15. Well I am an emotional mess after that. 
     

    I agree that Ben was pushed to the centre of a lot storylines but I think it was necessary to get the characters to where they needed to be for the season finale. I found his character absolutely draining but then again I think we were supposed to. The actor was phenomenal though and his final scenes with Linney were gut wrenching and so stressful to watch.

    my heart broke in the final scene.

    It wasn't Gonzalez's choice to leave. It was a creative decision. Grrr.

    https://tvline.com/2020/03/30/the-good-doctor-melendez-dead-nicholas-gonzalez-interview/ 

    One thing I took from this is that he wasn’t that into the idea of Claire/Melendez at this time. He was more invested in Lim/Melendez. I kind of agree. Like he said I saw Claire and Melendez as potentially a long burn that could be explored a few seasons from now when she’s not his student but right now it didn’t fit at all as she was so junior to him. It was always going to come off as skeezy to me. They obviously accelerated his relationship with Lim and Feelings for Claire to accommodate the death and that sucks as would have been a great Long term plan.
