Sarah Treem statement

Unfortunately I can't get the ST article so if someone could save it and post it from a different source it might work. The whole show has left a bad taste in my mouth and I definitely won't be watching season 5. If lewd pics of Maura were being bandied around at parties, perhaps that is why she got a bigger role after season 1 to keep her on board.

I just wished Sarah Treem wouldn't make a statement until Ruth can speak her side of what happened. Unfortunately Showtime Network made Ruth sign a NDA.

I bet they made her sign a NDA so there wouldn't be any bad press going into S5.

Agreed.

I watched the first two episodes of S5 over the Holidays. I have to say I was pretty underwhelmed by it. I'm not sure when I'll get chance to see more episodes as I was watching on my sister's iPad, but I wasn't really in a rush to see it anyway.

It still got out that she wasn't very happy by her interviews, so it only half worked.

Well Ruth has never been busier since leaving The Affair - The hard won Golden Globe can't have doe any harm so at least some good has come of the painful experience.

I think one of the failings of The Affair was the introduction of new cast members to the detriment of the original cast.

I agree and also giving them their own POV, that part didn't quite work out.

Great to see Colin and Patti working together and playing a couple. Will definitely watch that one if available.

Josh and Dom reunite at the BAFTA Dinner in London

Josh definitely in the UK then. They both look happy together. I still think they would make a good team in some project in the future.

Yeah, that would be interesting.
