So I finally caught the last two episodes last night. And I have stuff to say, LOL.

a) Dave Annable (the actor who plays Justin) is the weakest link in the cast to me. Tommy is my least favorite character generally (other than Holly), but the acting for Justin sucks when it is supposed to be really dramatic. His whining/overemoting when trying to fight his feelings for Rebecca at the theater, and when going off on her for lying, just did NOT sit well. The scenes should have been much better, and the actress who plays Rebecca (I really do know her name, but I can't remember it today!) carried her weight.

Also on the topic of Justin and Rebecca- they do have amazing chemistry and while this twist is very soap-like, I can take it b/c I like them together. HOWEVER, the way he reacted to her very short-term lie was ridiculous. She had only known the truth for DAYS, and she did come clean. (Granted- if Justin hadn't told her about his feelings for her, maybe she never would have, but I prefer to think that her conscience would have prevailed.) He acted like a little baby. I expected him to be disappointed, but it was ridiculous, when in the end he really does not WANT her to be a Walker!

b) Very glad Robert turned down the Vice Presidency. And was proud of Kitty for standing up to the new president, who was an arse.

c) I love Steven Weber and am saddened that he clearly is leaving the show, but this is not the best character he's ever played so hopefully better awaits him.

d) GO SCOTTY AND KEVIN! I know I am one of the only Scotty fans on SZ, but I love him. This is the first gay couple on TV I have ever really liked- I don't watch "The L Word" or predominantly gay shows so that is probably why, and while I loved "Will and Grace" they never gave Will a good long-term match.

But Scotty and Kevin, I love. My biggest problem was that Kevin didn't deserve that kind of love for quite some time, but he has really stepped up. Scotty is just adorable.

e) Holly is from hell. Patricia Wettig is a very good actress and I actually like Holly when she is with David (I will miss him and hope he comes back- we all know he could at any time since it is Ken Olin's call), and I like her at Walker Landing with Tommy. But the bottom line: She was a kept woman and sleeping with a married man for YEARS. She didn't even have to make house payments. And her reward for such treachery? A giant of share of the Walker company/money, and you KNOW a big reason was that William thought Rebecca was his (regardless of what Holly told him.) And then Holly just took that money, had no paternity test done, and is suddenly this major business executive when she has NO experience. I will accept that on daytime TV, LOL, but not on "Brothers and Sisters."

And Rebecca actually calls her on it, and Holly gets all sanctimonious and rude? BS! Holly is so freaking out of line! She acts like she struggled and suffered...BS! William paid the house payment. And she reaped what she sowed.

yes, Rebecca occasionally treats Holly like crap and maybe that is inappropriate, but she has every right to be furious about being led to believe the Walkers were her family when in fact Holly had no idea. And why should she respect a woman who slept her way into the company?

HATE.

f) Kevin is freaking HILARIOUS in comedic scenes. He knocked it out of the park with his reaction to Justin's "feelings" for Rebecca.

So, what do you guys think will happen next? (If you really know, please don't spoil me.) Do you think Holly and Rebecca will both be written off? I don't.

Will Kitty and Robert conceive?

Will Tommy and Sarah be able to co-exist in the company?

Share. :-)
