235 FAVORITE SHIPS OF ALL TIME (ranked by my followers) 108. annalise keating and eve rothlo - how to get away with murder

What should I say? When he's old enough to ask me about his dad? Do I tell him nothing like Gabriel's mom? Hope he never finds out the truth? Or you tell him the truth, which is that his father was a great guy who took the fall for his friends. You believe that? If it hadn't been for Wes, we'd all be in jail. Christopher would be in foster care. Or my dad would have him. Exactly.

Michaela saying her ex-fiancé was bi after telling Tegan she has experience with bisexuality was the biggest no homo this show has ever pulled

Michaela really had me all excited when she said she had experience with bisexuality

Please do a HTGAWM REVIEW TONIGHT!!!

Haha I sort of did snippets as I watched but OK.

1. This was definitely a much appreciated episode after last week’s, which in my opinion was underwhelming. If there’s one thing I can say about HTGAWM is they create mood with music/score really well so all the music/score choices this week were topnotch, it really added to what was going on. I appreciated Miller and Bonnie in the context of there being someone in Bonnie’s life that made her happy but I wasn’t invested in them because I thought it all happened way too quickly for me to really care so I don’t think I would’ve really felt how sad it was for Bonnie to be looking at all the sticky notes he left on her computer monitor if they didn’t use the exact right music to go with it because the music just made everything tragic.

2. I said this in one of my snippet “reviews” but I liked watching Bonnie and Nate together this episode, Liz and Billy feed off of each other well, feed off of the emotion so when they were talking, teary-eyed, I was like you guys are compelling onscreen together, I’d like to see more emotional scenes between you two.

3. I still don’t care about Gabriel’s storyline really but I assumed the phone call was to Hannah, I thought the two of them teaming up would be a natural fit so I was surprised that he called Miller.

4. I liked the idea that Asher knew about this murder first and on the one hand I thought it would be interesting if the tables were turned and Asher is the one keeping this secret from the Keating 4 like they did for all of season 1 but at the same time I absolutely lived for the fact that Michaela and Laurel and the others unraveled it all in the span of 30 seconds because Asher is just not a pro like they are.

5. Once again, I do maintain that Oliver isn’t consistently written. Last week he was making bad/callous jokes about Gabriel being dead, before that he was indignant about Simon before that he wanted to be a part of the Keating 5/4 and now this week he’s back to being morally superior? I wondered if it was because Michaela told him that he was the optimistic one of the group and she can’t have him go dark so he decided to rag on her again for some “normalcy” but I still feel like the writers need to figure out what side Oliver is on and if he’s ambivalent actually make him ambivalent instead of giving him ambivalent writing.

6. I know there are a lot of Tegan/Michaela shippers out there and in some ways I feel like the show may be gearing up to that but I am 100% Tegan/Annalise and I love that it was brought up this episode and Tegan’s reaction to getting called out was basically

7. I think it was obvious from the jump that Miller was telling the truth that he didn’t set up Nate Sr. but Bonnie figuring it out was still sad.

8. I liked how Annalise called Eve out on her privilege this episode while Tegan called Michaela out on her biphobia.

9. I am ambivalent about Connor sticking up for Wes in this episode because on the one hand I love it because it shows development and how much Connor has grown but on the other hand, Wes isn’t completely blameless, he wasn’t exactly a victim, he did kill Sam so I feel like the show’s relationship to Wes now is weird, it’s both protective and sometimes disrespectful at the same time?

10. I never liked Waurel and I’ve always thought Laurel was extra when it came to Wes because I didn’t buy what the writers wanted me to buy when it came to their relationship so her reactions all felt disproportionate and performative to me but this episode I did believe she was triggered and struggling with the story she had to tell Gabriel about Wes and what she really felt about him considering how much she hated that they pinned everything on him.

11. I wish we had more time with Nate and Annalise and Nate telling Annalise about what happened with Miller, those two are also good onscreen together and I miss their emotionally charged moments.

12. While I do believe that Michaela and Laurel were so quick to call out Asher because they’re better at lying and manipulation than he is (plus they’re both observant and smart) I would also like to think that Michaela knows Asher, knows his tells, knows when he’s keeping secrets because of their relationship so when she kept staring at him and she was saying how he was acting weird earlier I was like because you know him!!

13. I also hope for more Annalise and Connor scenes because I love watching them together too.

Much better episode than last week’s.

You've never understood. Even now. Your privilege lets you be gay. I'm black from the damn Bible Belt. So stop trying to figure out what's going to make me happy. You don't know what that is, I don't what that is. But it isn't about finding a person. A man or a woman. I have to figure it out. I have to save me.

Your privilege lets you be gay. I’m black from the damn Bible-belt. So stop trying to figure out what’s going to make me happy. You don’t know what that is, I don’t know what that is. But it isn’t about finding a person – a man or woman. I have to figure it out. I have to save me.

Annalise Keating, HTGAWM 5x10 “Don’t Go Dark on Me”

[yesterdayiwrote]

So... I still haven't seen 5x10 straight through in its entirety, but it's the first episode in a while where I feel completely unenthusiastic about catching up :(

I hate flashback episodes, and I just feel disappointed in how often HTGAWM keeps retreading and recovering old ground, often retconning the story, or adding in extra "previously unmentioned" plot points for shock value. Annalise wanting to adopt Wes?  That would have been dynamite if they'd explored it while Wes was alive, but now, it just feels empty and pointless. And I'm bored of everything being a catalogue in all the ways sam was awful. We know he was, and now he's dead, why is he getting more story than the living characters? Annalise had a traumatic past, but why is the story constantly going backwards and wallowing in her trauma instead of pressing forwards and allowing the characters to grow?

S5 had been much better, and I still feel like Pete's missing a trick by not utilising the K4 more. That little flash of happiness at the wedding was so welcome. Gabriel just isn't a compelling story to me. Give us the K4 trying to pass the bar. Give us coliver trying to navigate married life. Give us them working together to cover their asses yet again, but stoppppp retreading old ground :(
