Haven't there been rumors of a shooting? I don't think the show would make the shooter an African-American character, so your scenario would fit. 1 Link to comment
earlbny June 21, 2016 Share June 21, 2016 (edited) You might be right. It could be the shows way of killing someone again without actually killing someone. I want to find out so bad. I wish I was a perfessional reviewer so I could watch the episodes early. Sarah wants to go as dark as the network would let her. She wants to try and top least season.

phoenics June 21, 2016 Share June 21, 2016 Who was the woman they were trying to get to wear a hijab? Was that Yael? And I don't think it aired - I think they cut it... but initially I thought she would be offed by a crazy bigoted person... I wonder now if she was originally the one to get killed but they changed it due to the current political climate (i.e. Trump and his campaign). I know they've finished filming, but I think they finished in early June? So there would have been plenty of time to change a lot of stuff. It's telling though that they cut the scenes trying to get the girl to wear the hijab - or did it air and I just forgot? 1 Link to comment

earlbny June 21, 2016 Share June 21, 2016 (edited) Yael is the Jewish girl they call Hot Rachel. London's the one who was going to wear the hijab. It's sad that if Darius does I won't care because so far His charactor does nothing for me. Before last nights episode aired I though Darius was doing drugs or taking steroids. I have a social media theory. The cast takes over Entertainment Weekly's snapchat for each episode. This week featured the woman who plays Beth Ann. She's the one who went home this week. I wonder if each week will feature the contestent who goes home. The 1st 2 weeks had random cast members but nobody went home. According to Constance Zimmer the season finale will leave your jaw on the floor. http://redcarpetcrash.com/interview-constance-zimmer-talks-unreal/ Edited June 21, 2016 by earlbny 1 Link to comment

I get getting as dark as you're allowed to, but I think moving too far away too fast from what made us like the first season could speed up the demise of the show - I mean, I was not bored yet, I could have taken a second season of the same dynamics, with a different suitor and different hamsters/contestants, without the network politics (hell, it was only a 10 episode season, I wanted more of the same). Has the show only been renewed for one more season and is Sarah hoping to get more seasons? Or is she determined to up the ante just to up the ante, regardless of what we want? 2 Link to comment

The one thing I hate about Twitter is the is the character limitation. By the time I tag all the people I want to tweet to I am about of characters. Last season someone did an interview with Shiri. They said we can tweet or email them questions. It was a no brainier. I emailed them. This way I can make the questions as long as I want. Plus I can send multiple questions all at once. I've had some random people, Internet models, fake accounts follow me or want to be my friend on Facebook. I just block them or ignore them. Shiri's Twitter account got hacked the other day.

Chris Burgess June 30, 2016 Share June 30, 2016 (edited) Here's the summary for the sixth episode of season 2 of "UnREAL" (which is Shiri Appleby's directorial TV debut) that I got from TV Guide: "Rachel deals with a trauma, and Chet is there for her. Meanwhile, Quinn pursues a new relationship; Rachel learns something surprising on a hometown date; and an angry Darius makes a startling decision". Any guesses on what "traumatic event" Rachel will deal with (I say it's Jeremy physically abusing her), and what surprising thing Rachel and Darius will learn about an "Everlasting" contestant on a hometwon date (I say she and Darius finds out something about Yael or some other contestant)? We all know that Quinn pursues a relationship with Ioan Gruffud's John Booth character! Edited June 30, 2016 by Chris Burgess 1 Link to comment

We all know that Quinn pursues a relationship with Ioan Gruffud's John Booth character! From the Vulture article we know the episode contains a funeral scene attended by Quinn and the new network owner, where they kiss. We also know there's a scene where Quinn, Chet, Coleman, and Rachel debate calling the police. Presumably, they are debating calling the police because Jeremy has attacked Rachel. A funeral attended by both Quinn and her new love interest would have to be one for Quinn's father, wouldn't you think? It seems early in their relationship (since at this point they haven't met yet) for him to go to her father's funeral. But I don't think anyone either in front of the Everlasting cameras or behind its scenes will die at this point since that would have to happen in episode 5 and it doesn't feel like they're building to that (yet). The only other possibility could be that the hometown visit is Chantal and they film at the grave of her dead fiance, but Vulture quoted Shiri Appleby specifically calling it a "funeral," and a graveside visit to a long-dead person wouldn't be a funeral. I don't think I've read any hints about who the hometown visit could belong to, but the most provocative one would be Beth Ann. The New Yorker article mentioned her story takes a 'tragic turn.' (A traumatic event and a tragic turn - what surprising plotting!) Perhaps her hometown visit sets that in motion. 1 Link to comment

And also in that Vulture article according to "UnREAL" EP and director Adam Kane, the conflict between Coleman and Quinn/Chet will pay off later?

RCharter July 5, 2016 Share July 5, 2016 More and more I'm coming around to the "Coleman expose" idea....I wonder if this new billionaire network guy isn't in cahoots with him. Link to comment
BingeyKohan July 5, 2016 Share July 5, 2016 My new speculative theory (or possibly just fan fiction): The reason Booth, the new network owner, mentioned his love for Beth Ann was not to show how granular his Everlasting fandom is; it's to lay pipe for a story where he turns out to be a Trump-like figure, seeking to play to the lowest common denominator. (I could see SGS wanting to take on Trump.) Possibly whatever happens with Beth Ann next week and the man who appears, in previews, to be on the attack could play into this. Maybe whatever happens, he insists to Quinn that it be edited to be favorable to the racist contingent and be falsified to disparage Darius. This will turn out to be the line that Quinn won't cross (perhaps putting her in mind of her father's values) and she'll enlist Rachel to go against Booth, bringing her and Rachel back together. (Or maybe I'm giving the show too much credit and whatever happens will be the Mary-suicide equivalent, just a late-in-the-season shock-value play.) Link to comment
earlbny July 5, 2016 Share July 5, 2016 (edited) Last week I got to see an advance screening of Episode 6. I was also treated to a Q&A afterwards. Some of the audience at least the random people I spoke to had not seen the show at all. Some had never even heard of it. I wont give anything away. I will say that I missed a lot of lines from next weeks episode because the audience was laughing so hard. Especially at next weeks shocking moment. Good theory's everyone. Constance said the finale will leave your jaw on the floor. I wonder what could happen that leaves my jaw on the floor? Adams been confirmed that he comes back. So my guess is that Adams the unexpected visitor that stops by the set. Maybe Jeremy talks to Adam and gets him to return. One of the actors seen in the promo for next week is Zach McGowan. He was on Shameless and Black Sails. I wonder if Shiri got to cast him for that role. Shiri's friends with him in real life and she was the director on that episode.

However, if we can turn to earlbny's posts as guidance for the next episode, if Jeremy came back as a mass shooter I don't think the response would be "laughter", so I think Jeremy as a mass shooter is just wild speculation.

earlbny July 6, 2016 Share July 6, 2016 (edited) I never heard that mass shooter speculation. If memory serves SGS said they don't want to repeat themselves and nobody dies this season. Sadly mass shootings are a big news topic. I think SGS likes to pat herself on the back by saying we did things 1st. Especially this season. Has there ever been a mass shooting on a TV show? If that plot turns out to be true it would be in a later episode. Constance Zimmer said the season finale will leave your jaw on the floor. Edited July 6, 2016 by earlbny Link to comment

I can't think of one that wasn't a school shooting - off the top of my head, there have been school shooting episodes of Buffy (though, she was able to stop it), Glee, One Tree Hill, and Degrassi.

Thanks for the info. I've seen bits and pieces of the 1st 2 shows but none of the 2nd 2 shows. Here's a new interview with Constance Zimmer. The quote below sounds interesting. I wonder if that happened yet? http://www.bustle.com/articles/168295-unreal-star-constance-zimmer-doesnt-want-you-to-get-a-money-dck-power-tattoo-but-she "There’s some stuff coming up [this season] that’s going to be very hard to watch, because I think we all love the Quinn and Rachel dynamic and I just keep telling people 'Don’t worry it’s going to be for a greater common goal in the end,' and hopefully the ride will be worth it," says Zimmer.

CalamityBoPeep July 6, 2016 Share July 6, 2016 I stopped watching Grey's Anatomy around season 4 or 5, but didn't I read somewhere that they had a big shooting at the hospital during one of their finales? Link to comment
