Thats what he does, he's a roller coaster.

 

I have a feeling next weekend his illness "if you dont stop drinking you will kill yourself" will be some sort of misdiagnosis. That show will be boring if Frank isnt drinking every chance he gets

No, no, no, no. Frank's character may be boring, but the show won't be boring if one character stops being crazy.

They could find a way to make Frank interesting still, I'd guess. But I would be surprised if he actually does have to quit drinking. Seems...unlikely.

 

I don't see how Jimmy is getting off that boat. The first season he was one of my favorite characters, now he's a selfish prick. Well, he was always a selfish prick, but he used to be a likable selfish prick. Agreed with B>W though, the bodyguard is too awesome of a character to just have disappear from the show. Don't see how he would stay without Jimmy, though.

yes. yes it will. You just complained that Frank did something his character normally doesnt do, why would this show be any good if Frank isnt doing the hilarious things that make him Frank?

 

This show (for me) is all about Frank, Kev and V, Lip, and Sheila. Everyone else is side characters IMO

I complained about Frank, not the show. There is no single character on this show that would ruin it for me if he/she suddenly died.

My buddies think that when Jimmy zipped up his jacket right as he started to walk to the boat, that he was concealing a gun that the bodyguard gave to him.

Anyone watch Top of the Lake? I am halfway through the first episode. Weird show, mainly because of the weird retreat ladies. Can't figure out why the asian girl lives with the hillbillies, when she clearly has a mother in town. Was her dad really given custody, if that even is her birth father? She looks very asian, not mixed.

/Raises hand. I DVR it and watch on Tuesday after work. Had trouble understanding some accents but I'm ok now. I like it enough to watch it. Only 7 episodes.

Jeesh, watching Revolution last night reminded me of just how terrible that show is.

I didnt think the first episode after the break was that bad... didnt see that end coming.

 

That being said, it's is trending too close to the ratings red line. It's only about a point higher than V, Jericho before they were cancelled and is at the same level as Terra Nova. much like those others, I'd guess this isnt a cheap show to produce. It needs a Solid 8+ to stay alive.

I watched this episode last night and didn't see anything to suggest that's what happened. The bodyguard's hands were shown the entire scene, so that would have to be an off-camera surprise. He's either a goner or they're going to stretch it out until next season (he wasn't in the trailer at all for the finale).

 

Also, I agree that the Frank doing a good deed was totally out of character and pretty stupid. In every other similar circumstance he would have grabbed the stolen goods and sneaked away from the house.
