Less Lucious, More Cookie?

So.... Michael's returning (what happens to Ryan, I wonder) And Camilla's coming back too. I wonder if his relationship with Anika will just be about the music. Did I see Rhonda digging a grave while Andre watched? Hate to say it, but Jamal's trip to the dark side has only made him sexier Cookie & Lucious' chemistry is still through the roof I'm already WAY too excited about the fashion Why isn't it Sept. 23 yet!

Blanche: We Southerners never forget. Dorothy: Yes, it's true; possum is brain food. Dorothy (to Sophia): "Ma, he owed money to a guy named Face and got thrown off a pier."

Finally saw the finale. You had ONE job, Ghost! I knew Kanan wasn't dead, but I hoped against hope. I hate him so much. He shot Vladimir twice when he didn't have to, so why not make damn sure Kanan's dead? Ugh! "Usually that telenovela look disgusts me, but on you.." Lobos for the win. And trust me, that is a sentence I never thought I'd type. For real! Assuming Tommy ends up not killing Ghost, can Lobos please take out Holly? I was deeply annoyed to see her reappear. Surprised at how entertaining I found the finale - well, you know, except for Angela's stupid.

Yes. This season has been entirely too gory for me. Kindzi bet not eat that baby. And she can exit stage left any time now. Ideally, her fellow Omec would find out about her murdering T'evgin and handle her themselves.

I liked Six's reaction "Good speech, though." Ha!

I forgot how much I enjoyed Ms. Understanding, though there were quite a few people who needed to be smacked snap-out-of-it style. Namely Ron and Shazza. But it is a genuinely funny episode.

I'll always watch The Replacements. That's mostly down to my Keanu Reeves love, but it's also just a silly-cute movie.

New trailer! These season 2 teases are driving me crazy! And FOX knows it, too!

"The Exam Zone" is a great episode. It's kind of absurdist but that's what I like about it.

Funny you should say that, JustAPerson. ESPN FC writer Rory Smith talks about this exact thing in his latest column. If you don't want to read the whole thing, here's the pertinent part:

Yes, that was a bad move by Courtois - or as I like to call him Poor Sad Thibault Courtois. Aside from the fact that it was a fun game, Chelsea drawing was good for me since I loathe them.

RIP, Shawn. But did you have to be so stupid till the bitter end? Mouthing off to your crazy daddy, giving him back the gun, turning your back on him. You were nothing if not consistent. This season better be leading up to a Who Killed Kanan murder mystery. I don't hate any character like I hate that mofo (and that includes Ghost, Angie and Holly).

Not a terribly convincing win from Manchester United, but since they got the 3 points, they won't care. I could only shake my head at my Everton. This is the third season in a row they've drawn 2-2 on the opening day of the season. Chelsea are 2-1 up on Swansea at the half. I hate Chelsea.

In episode 2, when Cookie came to Lucious' mansion and Anika walked out in her underwear in front of Cookie and Lucious, I said to myself, "Oh, it's going to be that type of show? I'm SO in!"

I am WAY too excited at that trailer (and I won't say how many times I've watched it) Looks like the unholy alliance of Cookie, Andre, Hakeem and Anika is still in tact but for how long?

That trailer has me all screamy.

I loved Kimberly Reese! She had some of the show's best snark. And I still tear up at her struggle in the Mammie Dearest episode.

I hope Alex didn't shoot himself or his daddy. I really came to love the Alex character. So, it's confirmed that Schweppenstette is Martin's father, but does he know, and does this mean I can call him Spy Daddy now? Annett's little snitch ass can have all the seats. Ingrid reading her was extremely satisfying. Shout out to Fuchs - Schweppenstette's officemate/antagonist. I love - and can relate to - his world weary look. Tischbier's as shady as they come, but I believed he was genuine in his concern for Felix. Also, I loved how Lenora was like "Deuces!" packed up her shit and left with her man. They set up a lot of cliffhangers, but will we get a season 2?

This is gold! Thank you!

At the TCAs, Shondaland panel talks Donald Trump, with Ellen Pompeo giving the best response.

Spoilers from TCA panel (this was a panel for all of Shondaland, so Grey's & Scandal spoilers were mixed in) I'm guessing this refers to how Annalise, Sam, Bonnie & Frank all met. We pretty much know how the students met each other.
