[The Wheel of Fortune]

This was so, so good! I was expecting Asher's arc to end up with some lame conclusion, and look what we got! I have an exam tomorrow morning, but maaan it was so worth it to squeeze in some time to watch this.

I can't fucking wait for February, need more dets on AK & Wes, what exactly did he see? And still waiting on my highly-anticipated Frank backstory. What's the deal with him and the Keatings?

 

[Leeness]

WHAT THE FUCK

WHAT JUST HAPPENED

What do you mean I have to wait for February.

 

[mrjohill]

So it seems like keating is responsible for wes' mom's death...

 

[the3ye]

OMG Phoenix and Whoopi did something bad.
My first post here, but this episode was amazing.

February? God...

 

[badcrumble]

And still waiting on my highly-anticipated Frank backstory. What's the deal with him and the Keatings?

That's my main deal right now. I feel like we've more or less got enough of everyone's motivations except for him, and he's kind of an enigma. Why does he work for Annalise? We've got some amount of explanation for Bonnie now but none for him.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

I

I

i jjst

i fucking just what?? what???? what the fuck??? annalise killed his mom??? asher killed shitclair??? what are they trynna do with katherin??? what the fuck is this show

this season is so much better i fucking cannot. SNATCH MY WEAVE DESTROY BURN IT SCALP ME END ME SLAY ME HTGAWM IM SO GLAD I WATCH THIS PIECE OF SHIT SHOW

 

[excelsiorlef]

This show is the best soap opera ever created. Everything about this show is fucked up and honestly in a lesser show stupid, but here it's fucking magic.


West isn't his real name... of course it isn't

Annalise and Jean Grey did something to Not Wes' Mom... of course they fucking did. Though my guess is that Wes is a stone cold committer of matricide.


This show is genius level fuckery.

 

[Matt_]

my fucking heart I can't even
I thought they were going t struggle so much to tie everything together but lord fucking christ
praise be shonda praise fucking be

 

[DominoKid]

Pete Nowalk get the credit for this. He writes it. Shonda just the producer. That's why it's not hacky as fuck.

 

[Trey]

It's still hacky. But just enough of a hot mess to be entertaining.

I'll say, this mid-season finale saved things for this show. It was trending listlessly into confirmed garbage tier. Now it's treading water.

"Rebecca's dead"

TRIGGERED

MACROAGGRESSION

Amazing, lol

 

[Suikoguy]

Good question. He seems to have a ton of cash he reluctantly went into for the bribe for test results.

 

[TuckingFypo]

WOW and now we have to wait until February?! I hate mid season breaks

 

[jrush64]

Holy Shit!! This episode was fucking Bananas!! This season has been exceptional.

 

[Matt_]

I might have to rewatch the episode tonight
honestly one of the best hours of tv ive ever watched

 

[Joni]

They keep getting away with murder, she is a terrible lawyer if she is responsible for so many of them.

 

[Achtius]

I don't even..

this is the best show ever

 

[TheSlySoul]

They keep getting away with murder, she is a terrible lawyer if she is responsible for so many of them.

I am glad things are collapsing around her. All the lies and murders cannot continue. I am guessing Wes will come out on top in the end.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

I don't even know how this show would end honestly... Annalise wins? She gets away with murder again and moves away or something? idk

all i know is that Annalise Keating is the best character on this show followed by Laurel Castillo

 

[Taruranto]

I don't even know how this show would end honestly... Annalise wins? She gets away with murder again and moves away or something? idk

It's Shonda...

So 20 seasons and half-cast will be killed in massive catastrophes.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

Isn't Peter Nowalk the one that calls the shots though? I've always wondered how big a part Shonda Rhimes plays on this show

 

[Bladenic]

Laurel really is the best of the group, but frankly this season I liked the dynamic between Michaela and Connor. Wes still sucks big time tho

 

[Joni]

I am glad things are collapsing around her. All the lies and murders cannot continue. I am guessing Wes will come out on top in the end.

Show ends with Wes and Laurel replacing Annalise, Frank and Bonnie as the super lawyers. The rest is in jail.

I don't even know how this show would end honestly... Annalise wins? She gets away with murder again and moves away or something? idk

If the show gets a planned out ending - which I assume as they will never piss of Shonda just to cancel it directly - I'm expecting something like Annalise going down for the entire thing and ending up in prison, but without impacting the kids. Bonnie will probably be dead at this point and Frank will be a wildcard: prison, running or literally the devil.

 

[jiggle]

So good
Knew Annalise was in on the shooting
now every single character in the main cast is a murderer except for her
God damn
It's good that Asher is finally part of the gang lol


3 months wait

 

[neshcom]

Finally caught the midseason. Wow, I'm glad it was able to set mostly everything up from the flashforwards. Unfortunately, the major twist was almost entirely telegraphed earlier when Annalise and Famke had that date and Annalise spilled the beans. That said, the execution of the episode and the crime scene setup almost totally made sense. The chaos of the shooting scene and the immersion of Asher into the Killer Krew, the reveal of Rebecca, and the much more gradual mental break of Connkr compared to last year were big highlights. It'll be a long wait to the second half, but I'm really glad the show order is so long. Much less convoluted and tangled compared to how Scandal has evolved.

Well, Wes did most of the murders the group is on the hook for. Connor, Lauren and Mikaela haven't committed murder. Yet Wes still seems like the most trustworthy of the kids.

 

[chefbags]

god I need this to hit hulu

It is on hulu lol. Season 2 has been there since it started.

 

[Pluto]

Well, Wes did most of the murders the group is on the hook for.

Most? He only killed Sam or did I forget someone?

 

[Joni]

Most? He only killed Sam or did I forget someone?

I'm counting his attempt on Annalise. So he is at 2, Frank and Bonnie at one.

 

[Malyse]

I'm counting his attempt on Annalise. So he is at 2, Frank and Bonnie at one.

Can we give him points for choking Levi against the wall?

 

[Blood Diamonds]

Do you guys think Asher's gonna die? He didn't seem too confident in the plan and he eventually goes to the police. I don't know who would do it though... maybe Wess? Frank? Maybe even Bonnie? Bonnie would be interesting..

Asher is confessing about Sinclair or Trotter lake. He's not risking the team.

And now the waiting begins...

I hate when they do a crazy cliffhanger right before the winter break, dam i'm so pumped to see what happens next.

 

[DJwest]

Ok, just caught up. Why has no one told me that this show was so good? The final 5 minutes of the mid-season finale were insane. Loved when Wes switched from the leg to the torso in V.A.T.S mode and Annalise realized she was fucked. This damn show.

 

[Nemesis_]

This thread should be way longer and I want this show to never end I love all the characters.

Except Wes.

 

[Matt_]

Just a reminder that this is back tonight!
super hyped

 

[Blood Diamonds]

Just a reminder that this is back tonight!
super hyped

um

whAT

WHAT

 

[Malyse]

I hope this show becomes about Wes becoming a serial killer and offing the rest of the cast in revenge for Rebecca.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

but rebecca sucks

 

[Sai-kun]

god im so....ready

 

[Matt_]

watching the last two episodes to catch up
this show is so good

 

[Malyse]

but rebecca sucks

I always forget how trash your opinions are, so thanks for the reminder.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

I always forget how trash your opinions are, so thanks for the reminder.

there's a reason she was killed off

she sucked

 

[VICTORsaurio]

Hoping for a hot sex scene with Connor!!!!

 

[Croc]

I don't get why people think Rebecca sucked so much. She was no worse than some of the other characters to me. Pretty much every single person in this show seems like a horrible person in some respect.

Laurel is definitely my favorite tho 😎

Regardless, I'm so ready for this.

 

[Matt_]

Oh i'm team connor for sure
I mean yes he is pretty and that helps but he's also got a lot of depth


man I forgot just how good the shooting scene from the last episode was

 

[Leona Lewis]

Random black babies being hand-delivered to a convalescing Annalise.

The fuckery already in full force

 

[Satch]

my ass is already fucked up and its only been 10 minutes

 

[DominoKid]

jeez that was a nutty episode

 

[MUnited83]

I hope this show becomes about Wes becoming a serial killer and offing the rest of the cast in revenge for Rebecca.

You. I like the way you think.

 

[Matt_]

Annalaise going cray, did not expect that
