100% agree. I swear the writers have no idea what they will write for the next episode until it's finished filming. There are plots that go nowhere, twists that make no sense and terrible dialogue.

It’s why I lost interest. It’s a waste of a good cast too.

My favorite moment of the show was when the daughter was sexualy assualted and we were dealing with that fallout but it was also the same episode her mother was leaving her family (and the show) for France. So the whole episode we had to have scenes with the mother and daughter planning a going away party while ignoring the other storyline but then cutting back to the assault but the mother is not helping her at all. It is 2 storylines that can't exist at the same time and they just shoved it into an episode like a square block in a round peg. They did this all while ignoring she has a love child with another character and she was basically stealing his son. This show is a masterpiece

Wonderful I have it on my list so that's always great to hear before watching.

Lol I stopped caring after they revealed why John killed himself and thought there was only like one more season. Did they have any other interesting plots since then?

Just imagine that every character in the show has lived through every possible life tragedy in the span of a few years - that’s pretty much what this show is like.

Why did he kill himself?

It's been a while since I watched the show, and I stopped at the end of Season 1 after the reveal, but from what I remember it was something akin to >!unresolved PTSD/depression/survivor's guilt that he managed to not be in the World Trade Centers on 9/11 when he was supposed to have been there!<. This may not be 100% correct, or there may be more nuance that I'm forgetting, but this was at the heart of it.

I think it was something to do with survivors guilt

This show didn’t know what it wanted other than being a “This is Us” knock off then totally going off the rails.

Too many sci fi / horror tv vets on the bench, bring on the ghosts. If they had ghosts they’d be doing Ghosts numbers

I watched a couple episodes of the first season years ago. It's total tragedy porn, Ron Livingston is a character that committed suicide and is barely in the show and it seems like everyone is fucking each other and gets cancer? lol

Lol. This show is so insanely bad it's like watching a car crash. I kind of enjoy the hate watch, but I hope the entire cast is killed off.
