God this season is just another one where things just kind of happen and they have no consequence or effect on anything else. It feels so pointless.
Most notably, the Kassidi and Carl arc is nothing other than repetitive. If this is going somewhere, get to it already. The writers have proven that she's clearly deranged or whatever, so what's the point? Why was her character introduced?
Not to mention the scene in the beginning when Fiona calls Carl and Kassidi dumb for getting married on impulse at such a young age: um excuse me didn't you do THE EXACT SAME THING WITH GUS A FEW SEASONS AGO? YOU ARE NOT BETTER THAN THEM STOP.
Also Sierra NEEDS to be written out of the show. Nothing about her character is remotely interesting and Lip has no reason to be so drawn to her. She's treated him terribly, and, if he's as smart as the writers say he is (getting great grades in High school and being accepted into MIT), he would move on and find someone else.
The whole thing with Ian being a savior to the gays has actually gone off the rails. Again, where are they going with this? It feels so much like filler, and the end of the episode was so incredibly cheesy with 'cool guys don't look at explosions' cliche, even if it was really well shot.
I did find the Fiona and Svetlana storylines genuinely interesting. Goreshter in particular is a great actress and carries the story well. Along with this, Debbie's toe debacle was incredibly gut wrenching and really well done.
