OK, so we made it through it. I suppose many will leave with the "death" of Bree. I personally am encouraged for the medium and the show itself!
All my jesting about the wacking of Bree was only because I truly saw JR's specter as a hindrance to success at this point. Will we ever lurve another lead like that? Sadly, I don't believe any current or future actor can (hee) fill that tank top. We all knew the meta was driving this though. No big surprise. She is simply irreplaceable and the c's would be foolish to try to do this.
BUT!
I think JR's lack of availability and (probably) uncertainty wreaked havoc with an already dysfunctional plot. Without having to be concerned about when, or if, they can film her, I think the writers will have much more freedom to write a cohesive story.
I think Joan and DB, as portrayed by the boyz, are both characters that can be further developed and are both pretty strong leads themselves. Taylor and Sarah can be developed into more realistic characters. Gone to TX, not for long I think...
As for our Spencer, not sure about him. I assume the Neutrogena ad money is still flowing so that's a wild card. It 's up to Mesh and the actor to make this character work. So far, not so much...
