What the ??? Just what?! My momma had me at 39 and she doesn't even look as old as Great Grandma Laurel. I don't understand why she made them that old. Unrealistic. Anneliese was much older than them, ha ha. Laurels was the worse.

Rewatching now into s2 and some of the treatment of Bonnie kinda is annoying. I know she was pissed about Rebecca but Franks done worse. I know they get into their relationship in later seasons. It's been awhile since I saw it, but is her treatment of Bonnie justified? It's pretty bad

Curious to hear what you think.

Killed Rebecca? I can't really remember my first time watching what I thought but I am pretty sure I thought Annalise killed Rebecca. This show was pretty good at throwing some twists out there.

Is it just me Or this michella character is the most annoying ever. Like whatever she just says, even a normal thing, seems so infuriating that it gets under my nevers. How can one be so effortlessly annoying, ugly and wanker?

I'm confused again. Why is Nate telling Teagan to watch her back from Anneliese? What the heck did she do? She told Bonnie and Nate that it was Miller so they both wouldn't feel bad. Now all of a sudden they're mad at her? They both killed Miller. Not annelise. So wtf? This show is really pissing me off haha. Can someone explain what I'm missing?

okay so i finished the series recently and i‘m rewatching it. i keep on thinking to myself: what would’ve happened if another member of the k5 had showed up to get the body. in the scene where wes goes back to get sam’s body and the trophy, we hear him saying “im sorry” and annalise replies with “dont be”. we already know that annalise favourited wes because she blamed herself for what happened to his mother. but what if another member showed up that night to get the body, say laurel? i dont know if its just me but i feel like annalise never liked laurel especially in season 1. so if she went back for the body, would annalise have reacted differently? would she have turned her in? idk lemme know what y’all think.

I just started a rewatch. I saw this a few years back and I'm hooked back into it. Just got passed the part where Ophelia? Anna Maes mom come. I found her funny and straight forward lol do people like her

I've seen this show so many times and I don't think Annalise has won a case legally, all of her "wins" have been illegal wins. Has she ever won a case w/ a not guilty verdict?

Just here to say wow that men had a high spermatozoid count

I'm so confused with season 4 episode 13. Who's Marcus and where did he even come from? Why did she cheat on Asher after ruining her 20,000 dollar dress just to get him back? Am I missing something?

Unpopular Opinion: Annaliese is to blame.

I know many people will disagree with me when I make this point. However, deep down, Annaliese (AK) is the unintended reason why the things in the show occur the way they do. Now, the question as to whether she deserves blame is undoubtedly clear: no. I do not think that AK does deserve to be punished for this crime. She is a sexual assault victim who her therapist groomed. Those around her constantly used her, and she is a victim to me. However, while one is a victim, one can still be an assailant. And let's talk about it.

Her class: AK teaches a law course that teaches first-year law students the opposite of an ethics course. Now, this course is greenlit and even adversities by the university, so it means she is not doing this in secrecy. Again, this is another reason she deserves no punishment.

This class, however, is immoral, which is the point. As a PhD student, I can rightfully say no class would ever advise students to break the law literally. Awarding someone for sleeping with someone for information, stalking, and rattling out a father???? And this is the first season?

Great for drama. But in a realistic context, these students are doing terrible things to get a win in the court of law. And she teaches this. She teaches them that they can always get away with murder. We learn in psychology that humans model the behavior they observe or are taught. So if your professor, who is why you are attending a law program, tells you it is your right to get away with a crime, what will you do? And you now have the knowledge to do it?

The Keating 5: I think people overlook the abuse of the K5 from AK and colleagues. Let's break this down.

Firstly, AK dangles her favoritism around with a trophy. These are competitive, hungry, issue-riddled young adults looking for admiration, especially from a mentor. Imagine the best person you admired awarding you for being unique and competent?!!!

People do more for less.

But the trophy means nothing!! She tells this straight to Mikaela. So basically, she makes these students work for free(!!) on top of a regular law course load. As a currency, she gives them social validation while making them compete and distrust one another, thus isolating them further from anyone (their classmates, teammates, etc.) to the point that even one tries to steal the trophy because she feels so broken. My dad used to do this to us all the time- he would act like we needed to earn his approval for love, and only the best ones deserved it. My siblings and I bullied one another to get some of that toxic love just for him to laugh in our faces and say it was never there. AK isn't their mom by any means, but she defiantly manipulates them. They constantly ask for a break to study, and she believes their needs, like their grades, are beneath her. What kind of teacher does that? Eventually, this leads them to crash and burn; it's just crazy how much she ruins their professional lives but uses her reputation as if that makes up for them being at the bottom of their class.

The Keating Home: now I think people would automatically assume I will attack Sam. But as I stated before, she was a victim of Sam's abuse as well, so that is not who I’m going to focus on. My biggest issue will always be Frank. What kind of teacher would invite their students to learn in an environment where a murderer actively preys on young female students? I always feel like people debate Laurel versus Frank—who messed with Who, but as somebody who knows how people operate, it is evident that Frank saw Laurel having low self-esteem, used that to get with her, and then fell in love with her. How often do we need the show to remind us through Bonnie that he does this? He’s a grown man who literally will use women. He’s gross, and then you find out a lot about his backstory, so it makes you like him a little more, but ultimately, his biggest crime is that he’s a full-blown murderer.

AK and then Sam used him to implicate students in his crimes. I get upset when people say where the origin of everything started when it started with Sam and Frank. Sam had the motive Frank had to oblige. In the end, we saw that Sam was willing to kill Rebecca. He was a killer, And AK knew that Frank was someone who could be manipulated and would kill (she did it all the time). She constantly had this ticking time bomb around these students, like it was unsafe.

Bonnie was the only reasonable and protector in that house. And how is she dying because somebody wants to kill AK?

Diecussion: AK taught the kids how to get away with murder and taught them not to question the morality of it. She used them constantly to the point they were inappositely involved in her life, thus making their feelings about doing immoral things questionable. We see this happen all the time with evil leaders; they get their followers emotionally dependent on them to the point that they forget to question simple things like right and wrong.

Adding to that, she taught them how to get away with it, too!!

And then she put them in an unsafe Enviroment. While she didn’t know for sure that Sam killed Lila, she knew he was involved and continued to have the students around. She didn’t realize Frank was involved, but she knew his character. She should have pointed it together once she knew Sam had an affair.

I always believed that she had chosen not to try to solve it. She's too intelligent.

It was inevitable that some students would eveunatally be implicated in her mess and that there would be some issues regarding her staff. This happens to be the time.

Conclusion:

So again, I don’t think that AK deserves to pay for these crimes. She did not commit any crimes, and she didn’t purposely try to harm these students. But do I think she’s responsible for this mess? Absolutely.

No matter how smart, cunning, firm, or unique she is… she's terrible. She has hurt so many people.

Standout AK terrible moment for me: episode 1x8- AK defends a mother who believes she is responsible for murdering her Nanny. Spoiler alert: it was the husband who set his wife up after learning that the nanny was having an affair with him and sleeping with his son.

AK: without consulting the client or family, sets the husband up on the stand to confess to murder. The wife says she ruined her family. AK says their wife will be thanking her one day.

Real life: AK betrayed her client's trust. She embarrassed a family and destroyed the relationship between a father and son. She ruined a marriage (yes, the husband is to blame, but it wasn't her right to do it that way, knowing she could have spoken to her client privately). Additionally, what if Dad didn't kill because he was jealous? What if he felt like his son (who also contracts an std from the nanny similar to him) was taken advantage of? While that doesn't justify his crime, it could have been why he deserves a relationship with his soon.

The wife voices her frustration, not about the husband going to jail, but how it all went down. AK calls the wife weak and then ignores her. And she has no remorse!!!!! Wild!

I would think this woman is crazy!

A lot of the show showcases that her being involved and winning her cases often leads to so much hurt to these defendants. She will always choose winning over morality. If those two things align, she’ll be happy, but we will see how she treats people. She doesn’t care about them, which can extend to the environment, and she thinks she asked them to do it. I think she has a responsibility to conduct herself better and chooses not to, at least to the point of leading people to question their selves.

She’s so confident that she’s right; it would make me think that maybe I should also begin acting like her. But overall, I think she should have done much better when teaching her students the difference between right and wrong or that winning at all costs shouldn’t be the goal.

I see again the show is one of my fave simply put it one is the best!!! Two thing I see to make the show very good is one thing they choose actor that not conveshionally beautiful they all below the average and make it more like real life to believe the show! Very genius truthfully and second thing I like that Annalise is angry African lady and they talk about how she black a lot because it frustration people put community in and we need to appreciate!!! In day and age where final Trump was President and the TikTok’s and Instagram is very important that we see it!!! Brava miss shonda rhyme! I do love this show an on season 2 re watch now

while i did indeed start the show because im a big IAMX fan and was excited to see a show include his music, i was pleasantly surprised with how the show progressed, the plot became captivating enough (for me at least) to continue watching, i even missed 2-3 songs that played because of how focused i was on the scene playing. however, i will say that i wasn’t expecting Volatile Times and The Unified Field to start playing during s3x scenes, i don’t see them as being very fitting for that kind of action, but they somehow managed to make the songs fit anyway, so congrats for that
