Rip Reloved
I have been watching this show since the first episode came out and I have ignored many things about it so that I could enjoy it but episode 8 ruined everything.I dont think I have ever seen such an episode so awful that it ruins a whole show for me before but this was it. I am biased because Don was my favorite character but I often don’t dislike killing off characters as long as it is a very important part of the story but the way this show killed of Don was disrespectful.
There was one montage of Pond mourning then one scene of the coworkers imagining themselves in that situation and thats it. Everyone moves on within what I’m guessing was a week.
It is also very clear that they killed off Don only for the main couple to have an epiphany that life is short and that the should get together again. Idiotic writing.
The horror of this episode doesn’t end there however because they also turn Meya into a bad character, after waiting so long for Than to find out the truth about Marwin’s father making her claim that Than was just using her son as a placeholder for Akin which is just strange and out of nowhere. Then Akin telling Than that Marwin will be fine because he’ll have Akin’s family as if Than didn’t lose his relationship with a kid he viewed as a son?
Ending the episode with an NC scene was possibly the dumbest choice they could have made after such a train wreck of an episode.
I wish the best to all the actors and people working on this show the best and future success and I wish the writers to gain some common sense and writing skill.
3 stars because the actors truly did an amazing job with the hand they were dealt.
