Franklin & Bash

Yes, there has to be a season 4 because nobody should have to live like this forever. Living like it 42 weeks of the year is painful enough.

I like all your thoughts, I hope they do try to make some sense of the Damien stuff and maybe the Rachel stuff, but at the same time don't spend a whole new season letting them be a mess. They need to work out a way to sort it out, and decide who Damien is going to be, and what he's going to do, and hopefully it'll be something less weird than this year.

And yes, like you say maybe get rid of Rachel, because I have no idea what she's meant to be doing. (I know they won't bring Hanna back, but they totally could just have Infeld replace Rachel with her, say Rachel was involved in a big scandal or something, and then their show would make sense and they'd have a strong female character, who wears amazing clothes, and also wouldn't have abandoned all their non-white people. Or even if not that, they could put her in like three or four of the episodes as opposing counsel. I think that could work really well, although I suppose she'd have to lose which would be terrible. They could have cases with Damien vs her, though, and he would be so childish because she ABANDONED HIM and also cross because she's better than him, and she would just be beautiful and not care.)

I wasn't asked anything about Ellen on the end of year survey which surprised me because they were sort of suggesting she might be coming to work at IDK? I don't really know if that would work at all, I think she's best as a rival person, I don't understand why they'd want her to be on our side instead, they have too many characters as it is and they need SOMEONE to be in the DA's office.

I think stanton could be really cool next year, he was just a bit too uninvolved for me this year. Having him not be in charge of them works, but he could have built up his crazily complicated charity foundation thing by next year, and just show up to rope them into ridiculous cases for it every now and then, and Damien too sometimes. I don't mind him being in it less, but doing more than just occasionally popping his head round their door would be good.

If they are going to leave the beach house - although it'd be sad to say goodbye to wet suits - I'd really like it if we got to see Peter and Jared house hunting, and especially if a few people made pointed comments about how they are quite old to still be house sharing and Peter and Jared just blissfully ignore EVERYONE WHO DOESN'T UNDERSTAND THEIR LOVE AND NEED FOR EACH OTHER.

And skiing would be beautiful, lots of chances to get lost in the cold dark woods and have your boyfriend desperately search for you on a skiing vacation. One of stanton's cases could involve them flying to switzerland or somewhere and settling some international dispute over whatever. Also maybe it could randomly involve them being handcuffed together.

Peter being concerned and NICE to Jared would be top of my wants. I loved how in the first season they were equal in looking after each other and being ridiculously nice to each other and now it all seems to come from Jared. Peter OFFERED HIM A HUG WHEN HE WAS FEELING SAD THAT ONE TIME, and also looked so worriedly at him when he was sad about his dad, but since then he's been a bit blasé about him and it's not fair. Although he did say he loved him in court this season, that was good boyfriending.

I think season 4 is about time that one of them defended the other one in court. So hopefully one of them gets sent to scary prison and the other one can't sleep or manage or think because they're working so hard to get them back. And then a reunion hug. And maybe with Leonard being involved somehow, or in another episode at least.

Mostly I just want 22 episodes and I don't mind what they do except I clearly do and might cry but so long as they keep it BEAUTIFUL I don't mind.
