Same I'm glad we at least got that one scene where he told Laurel he thought she was out of his league.

It has suffered a lot ratings wise since S1 and expect it to suffer more but only partly because of Wes. I just don't think they can bring back the same intrigue and excitement we had in S1 and part of S2. It was a pretty desperate move to kill off a main character so soon when their seasons are so short imo. I think they should have taken a break from the big flashforward mystery concept and focused on developing all the characters backstories. They all have potential. Also these characters have been through so much in S1-S2 to draw from for character driven storylines. And I think they should have focused more on courtroom drama too. There's a reason The Good Wife managed to go on for so long.

Okay, I didn't know about the ratings already suffering because I don't live in America and I don't really check them. Yeah agreed about everything else.

I didn't realise the ratings had dropped and was quite surprised because I thought they would have been better. But it's not that bad. From all ABC shows they're in the middle, and safe provided they don't have any more huge drops.

No problem!

There is also a new Shondaland: Revealed podcast featuring Alfie as a guest. You can listen here.

Gosh, reading this was torture. This is what I hate the most these days about characters being killed off: even though it hurts like hell - especially when it's a character that you like - the cast's reaction is absolutely heartbreaking.

Thanks for sharing the links.

I was especially moved by that part where Karla (if I remember correctly) said that Alfie ended up comforting the rest of the cast about his departure. What a sweetheart.

This. I love Alfie. He was even comforting the makeup technicians who were applying his burns.
