Re: How To Get Away With Murder (ABC) -- S: Viola Davis -- Season 1 Thread -- 9/25/14
We've been watching.
Wife and I have thought that Annalise set this whole thing in motion from the beginning.
Her class is part of the plan. The contest was a test to see who she would want to "use" in her plan.
Wes has been involved early on. Maybe since he cAught her in the affair. Maybe the cop is involved too but unlikely.
Annalise killed the redhead and has set in Motion a frame that makes it looking Sam did it, but now he's dead.
The show is How SHE can get away with murder. Literally.

I just had another thought about Wes seeing annalise and the cop, what if that was set up too.
They wanted to be caught by Wes.

Every time I see Wes, this is what I think of:

Oh no she didn't.
Oh yes she did.
What is Nate going to do?
Was he in on it?
Ring a ding ding.
Wait what ring was that?
The one ring to rule them all and in the forest bind them.
Incest is best put your brother to the test?
Game of thrones all over again.

I think the show lost me.
Break was too long and when I watched the first return ep I just zonked out while trying to stay focused on the show.
I couldn't tell you what happened on the first return ep to save my life.

The season finale is in 3 weeks. It's only a 15 episode season. The midseason was less than 2 months. Some shows are on break for longer than that.

I'll stick it out for the last few episodes but I don't see this show as having much more longevity.

I knew nose ring girl was bad news.
Loved the momma. Men need to stop taking stuff or they will get burned alive.
Sex in the parking lot? Get a room.
So she raped the dude and the dude was scamming the hospital?
Liked the episode but was confused by the case. The lady admitted to raping the guy but the guy was also scamming the hospital.

The plaintiff and the hospital's lawyer planned the whole thing to get a cash settlement. The sex was consensual (and initiated by the guy), then they claimed rape to get the settlement. The no contest plea by the nurse was just a way to get the hospital's lawyer on record committing a crime, knowing that once they had that they could get the case dismissed.

I love Cecily Tyson! The minute she admitted to knowing about the uncle I knew her character took him out. All you need is a long match and some highly flammable hooch.

OK I didn't see that ending coming at all. Kudos to the writers for kinda wrapping up one mystery, at least to the audience, and giving us another one. Poor Nate, he's just getting screwed over by this whole mess.

So I haven't really been watching this season, but I saw the pilot, a couple randoms and Hulu just popped on the finale.
Jesus christ that was some crazy shit This show has a really strange energy to it, in a good way.
Along with Scandal and Empire, it's pretty impressive that the 3 biggest (demo wise) network dramas are all anchored by "strong african american women"

Binge watched this in spurts and finally finished up today. So since Katie Findlay also played Rosie Larsen, she just really can't catch a break on the whodunnit shows.

Oh shit, Annalise being a switch hitter. That was unexpected. Especially with Famke Janssen. I guess they had a past relationship.Bonnie being the killer wasn't a huge surprise. She's quite loyal to Annalise and I don't think it was out of the question that she would shut up Rebecca. She was very cold and calculating in that murder scene.
All the characters are this show are bad people. Which I like and makes it different. Looks like the who shot Annalise angle will be the big arc for the season.

I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out Bonnie and Annalise had something going on at one point.

It is time to move on and I have. I barely made it through the end of last season, and not starting another. I'm out.
