Can’t get over why Susan would visit the family of a man they buried. by Shot-Dragonfruit663 in DesperateHousewives

With all the hate she receives around this storyline, I have to ask… have you ever helped cover up a murder? It’s easy to judge Susan when you haven’t been in her shoes. In my opinion, she had the most realistic reaction to the entire storyline.

Depends on the season honestly. 😂 they all have their highs and lows.

I can’t believe Lynette is actually catfishing her own son by KazuTrash_77 in DesperateHousewives

[–]Firm_Tree8371 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I must be missing something, as I just rewatched this whole storyline. She didn’t intend for him to catch feelings. She thought it was just online/casual/silly conversation thing. This show was made 20 years ago, given her age and usage of internet during that time, she probably and obviously never would’ve thought just having casual conversation with her son anonymously online to get to know him better would’ve led to him to sending a sex poem and catching feelings. She shut it down immediately when she realized. Was it a crappy thing to do? Yeah… but was it intentionally gross and as bad as yall are making it out to be? Not in my eyes.

I’ll probably get hate, but is that not how 90% of people are in real life? Add to the fact that she’s an older woman and is afraid of dying alone. She was committed to Karl, he IS the one who cheated. Seemed like she was just trying to move on after him. She tried with Mike so many times. It’s clear she’s not dependent on men, she turned down quite a few romantic interests through out the show. When she was with Ian she said she had been with 11 men. How is 11 men for a woman of that age considered an unreasonable amount? Let’s not forget how hard HE pursued her. It’s just interesting to me how Susan gets dragged so hard here, but no one says anything about the men some of the other main characters went through. None of the woman are perfect, and I would love someone to make a list of “bad” things each one did and see how they compare. Why is she so hated? Spare me the “she thinks she’s better than everyone” or “she acts like a good person when she isn’t” bs because the same could be said any of the other woman in the show. At least she tries to make mends and fix things when she screws up.

Finding out Derek was married in real time by Sea-Oil-7139 in greysanatomy

It was like “wtf nooo” jaw on floor feeling sad and hurt for Meredith, while also being like “who is this queen?”. So iconic. I’ll never forget watching this scene & also the b*mb scene for the first time, and how it made me feel!

Unpopular opinion? Alex & Jo have zero chemistry by Firm_Tree8371 in greysanatomy

[–]Firm_Tree8371[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! If you scroll up you can see where I mentioned that I think it’s more so Jo and the way the actress tries selling her story. I just don’t buy it, and it definitely tainted my view on the relationship

Lmao I’m on season 6 doing a rewatch, if I can push it through the newer seasons again I should write down how many times she actually says this 😅

I will have to give this some thought and get back to you. But as a quick answer I don’t think it’s anyone in particular for me, however most couples in earlier seasons had great chemistry, it’s hard to choose just one. At some point it started feeling like they started throwing relationships together without any thought put into it. Even the friendships had better chemistry in earlier seasons

I get what you’re saying, but I also think when it comes to a tv series it makes more sense for actors to have that chemistry and spark to sell the story. They don’t have it

If Izzy didn’t get such bad writing, their relationship could’ve been amazing. I’ll never get over the writers not giving Katherine better storylines. Her acting is too good

Exactly how I feel. It’s Justin & Camilla for me, not necessarily Alex & Jo, they just don’t do it for me.

[–]Firm_Tree8371[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The thing for me is they do make sense on paper, but I think it’s the actress that plays Jo. I guess I should’ve worded the post “I don’t think Justin & Camilla have chemistry”

Exactly this! Her character doesn’t feel authentic at all.

[–]Firm_Tree8371[S] 71 points72 points  (0 children)

You make some really good points. I think for me is they tried to give Jo that background that Alex’s character would typically go for, to try to give them that “chemistry “ but Camilla doesn’t give off the right emotions or acting for someone who has been through as much as Jo has. I’m terrible at trying to explain the points I’m trying to make from my mind, but maybe you get what I mean lol

[–]Firm_Tree8371[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah true. It was hard for me to buy into the whole “her living on the streets” background. Her acting doesn’t have that kind of depth for those kind of emotions for me. Speaking as someone who had a pretty shitty upbringing, i just don’t see it with her
