I love the Alison-centric episodes ❤️
I don't think there's any fan of this show who doesn't love Mrs S. I mean, how could we?
And I like that you point out how great Scott is, he's so adorable and not talked about enough.

[@KelseasComments]

🙌🙌🙌

[@mikaramatthews1226]

Scotty is the silent hero of the series 😊

[@eddiemi]

When Alison was talking to the Reverend, I was waiting for him to suddenly ask "Where's Sarah".

[@KelseasComments]

I would have shit myself 💀🤣🤣🤣🤣

If you run a comic book store how could you not help out a bunch of rogue clones and scientists fighting an evil corporation?

[@KelseasComments]

True!!! I just wanted to give him some credit!! Lol!

[@davidmichaelson1092]

Mrs. S is SO badass. I want her on my team (or more realistically I want to be on HER team) come the zombie apocalypse.

[@KelseasComments]

Oh TOTALLY AGREE.

[@dyejohn1905]

I think Rachal is the most damaged of all the clones.

[@KelseasComments]

That's a very fair theory. Well... I think Helena is pretty comparable in different ways. But it could definitely be argued that Rachel is the most. Very true.

[@KelseasComments]

Well ok let me rephrase.. I think Helena has been through a comparable amount but ya I think she's healed a lot so Rachel is probably the most damaged.

[@QueenoftheNorth]

Love your reactions but honestly you come across that you really hate Sarah girl. Sarah is an important meeting, she's allowed to say that to Kira?? Honestly your dislike for Sarah is coming across pretty annoying. Not trying to be rude, just trying to be honest

[@KelseasComments]

Then don't watch? Sarah ignoring Kira in that moment was shitty and stupid and bad parenting and I stand by every word I said about it. You're welcome to watch but your complaining every damn week is pretty annoying too. Was she allowed to say that to Kira? Sure I guess. Free country. Am I allowed to point out she's a shitty mom in that moment? Yep. As I said, Kira KNEW the meeting was important. She's a smart kid that has NEVER been obnoxious or interrupted something important for no reason. What if there were a fire in the other room? What if she was choking? What if Mrs S was having a seizure in the other room? You're clearly not a parent. I don't give a rats ass how important she thought that meeting was. If Kira is interrupting it should have been obvious it was something important as well. It would take 2 seconds to say "hold on guys, what's up Kira?" But no. Sarah doesn't know how to be a mom because she's never truly been one. I don't dislike Sarah. I dislike a lot of her behavior. It's wild to me that you seem to not understand the difference and think to like someone you must never point out faults or mistakes and must support all their worst behavior. That line of thinking is one of the biggest problems in the world today. People only call out bad behavior from people they dislike and it's pathetic.

I just gotta say, that Sarah is pretty annoying in the later seasons. I wish they had switched the main clone, because Sarah needed to take a lot of steps back in her progress to create drama. She already hit her peak in like s2, and it unfortunately shows. It kinda ruins her character that they kept her as the main clone.
She was shitty mom, who couldn't stay still and be the kind of mom and person people needed her to be. She was selfish and single minded. But she learned to shoulder responsibility and be a better person and mom. But that all happened in first 2 seasons. 3rd she stalled and after that it went downhill.
I get that life isn't always going to get better and people have trauma and unhealthy coping mechanism and there's always drawbacks. But this is a TV show, it's supposed to show character development, and if it doesn't, it's frustrating to the watcher.

[@KelseasComments]

​@@drownednkk8137 agreed! Thank you for putting a lot of that into words for me. At the end of the day, people don't always grow in the right direction at all times. But I'm allowed to be annoyed by annoying behavior. And when you add in all the context you did you're right. I've said before that part of my frustration is because she had come so far and a lot of this feels like backsliding. So I totally agree with you. Season 2 Sarah would have listened to Kira in that moment for sure.

[@drownednkk8137]

@@KelseasComments I think your frustration with her is completly valid. I was more bored with her and her plot than frustrated, there's only so many times I can get emotionally involved in her family problems. But I totally get the frustration, because she was definitely loosing her character development here.
I will always say that the writers missed opportunity in switching the main characters in seasons. I mean, they were played by the same actress, it wouldn't have been that hard and tbh I think it would have improved the plot a lot.

@@drownednkk8137 Maybe this is a spoiler Kelsea, so read at your discretion.
Drowned, I disagree with your thoughts. We all have opinions, and judge differently, and this is what makes the show great, and the writing on point. It challenges us. I disliked Sarah from the beginning. She is a con-artist, a bad mother, has zero patience and very little tolerance. She is self-absorbed, ignorant and rude. That is her character arc. Why does "character development" require a person to change and become the perfect human. To me, Sarah was never, and never will be, the main character, but she is the one driving the bus. The sisters are the main characters, and as clones they are 'one' entity, although different. Okay, that sounds crazy, but we cheer for Helena, and Alison and Beth and Cosima, and even Krystal, but never Sarah. However, she IS the glue. Without her, the story becomes disjointed and pointless. Imagine her as a secondary character? She would become redundant. May as well throw her under the bus. Her journey, as the driver, consists of hills and valleys, but in the final scenes of s05, she earns redemption, having climbed and conquered the mountain. Hell, I just wanted to throw my arms around her and hug this brave flawed woman and tell her she is loved. The very last seconds of this story reveal a woman who has finally grown-up.
