3x05 Granville Trapp
10.18.2005

hmm, that did not seem like "Nip/Tuck."

the episode seemed to have been a completely different thing than we've ever seen...i did not expect this. and i'm a bit shocked by the sidetracking.

"You are under arrest for the murder of Rhea Reynolds." Kit McGraw

kit mcgraw's character is completely out of line. completely false and really bad! i mean i managed to like her because of rhona mitra, but overall so far, mcgraw is a terrible character, she brings alot of nice sex[yness] but a detective? not believable and even more unbelievable that she'd go as far as to plant evidence just to get back at christian for dumping her?!

wtf is this "Nip/Tuck"??! yikes...

i admit, i watched this episode a bit out of order [last 30 minutes first, then first 30 minutes last], and perhaps that gave it more senselessness and showed how chaotic it truly is.

i have never believed christian or sean to be the Carver, impossble. because that would mean everything we've been led up to believe is false, and i highly highly doubt creator ryan murphy and the writers would allow something like that to happen. might i add that would be the "jump the shark" moment i've been hesitant of...

doesn't it seem too convenient for kit mcgraw to plant evidence, and why would someone frame christian to be the Carver? it's a bit pointless unless of course, it's someone close to him. a friend, or exfriend or exlover?

i dont get the whole point of bringing in christian's mother either! sure i do love kathy baker as an actress, but her role of christian's mother suddenly appearing to condemn her son makes little sense.

that, and what's with christian daydreaming in prison? there are way too many dream sequences this season, and we're only on episode 5!! first it was christian's death in 3x01, then even again in this episode with kit mcgraw guessing christian is the Carver, and we see scenes of him getting the mask on and cutting himself on the neck.

makes absolutely no sense, pointless. i dont like it at all. the audience is not to be fooled with like this, and i especially hate being fooled like this. i'm not stupid enough to believe this episode...

i really dislike the fact that christian and sean are at it again, yes a dramatic scene about trust and the episode is all about that really, but to use this 'is christian the carver' twist is really manipulative!

i'm sadly disappointed, more - i'm angry.

this episode was pointless. probably the worst episode ever plotwise and characterwise. who wrote this?! even though the acting was great, and it was superb to see kimber again, i just cannot fathom this episode. it was really reaching...

hell, quentin costa was the ONLY person making sense in the episode! he said it in the first 5 minutes of the episode.

gawd, i can't write anymore.

insert unbearable rating
