He was a lot closer than Ryan was, lol

Marissa had such a clear type, lol.

She did, lol

And Alex fit that type, even. Johnny? Not even close.

Would have if they cast Cam or someone along those lines.

The issue with Johnny was ALL casting. He was not at all like he was written.

Not in the slightest

I mean, Johnny was a bad idea. LOL. It was basically a target on Marissa's back. But the reason he was not her type, why he was such a spectacularly poor choice? THAT was casting.

Lol, definitely

Versus Volchok on a surface level was definitely her type, lol.

Yep, lol

Also, find an actor Mischa doesn't look at like she wishes he were dead, lol.

Would really help a lot, haha

THEY HAD TO HAVE SEEN THAT. IT WAS VIRTUALLY IMMEDIATE. What in the world....

Think even Stevie Wonder could see that, haha

It was extremely noticeable by the second episode he was in, I remember. That's when I noticed Mischa's whole vibe was way, WAY off of what could be seen of Marissa in the casting sides. Like, she was supposed to be "smiling softly" at him or something and Mischa just straight up rolled her eyes. Which I'd never seen before and never saw after him - it was specific to this storyline and this actor.

Yeah, not sure how no one picked up on that

I still wonder how directors just let that entire storyline skate, lol. Mischa looked actively pissed, but Ben was like...falling asleep, lol.

Don't think they cared, lol

I wonder "What was wrong with the director during the scene where Johnny got hit by a car?" And then I remember it was Tate. LMAO.

Really? Hahaha

And in the same episode, his smiling face was randomly cut into Marissa's trauma flashbacks, lolllllllll.

So ****ing weird, lol

I still remember noticing it and capping it that night and putting in the thread like W.T.F. I'm so sorry we lost all that S3 real time reaction goodness. LOL.

Would have loved to have seen that, haha
