I wish they would extend some of the story lines a little more.

Last two episodes felt more like moving chess pieces than anything.
Glad to see they're steering away from Jamie as a big bad. A) He's just too big of a pussy to be intimidating and B) There's just no WAY he'd have ordered an attack on Casey. For everything he hates about Beth and his frustration with John (who I say he's too in awe of to attack) - Casey is his brother in the same sense of any 'normal' person. He almost seems to look up to him. There's no way he'd do that. I also can't convince myself to be scared of that little Australian Dwarf woman from Market Equities. Willa Hayes was a far better character. I'm supposed to be all cowed when she tries to bark back at Beth and all I can see is a Pomeranian trying to bow up on a Doberman. |

Would somebody remind me of what happened with Lloyd and the blonde woman who is now with singing cowboy?

This storyline is a reach, IMO. Lloyd is someone who's murdered to protect the ranch and now some weird sort of unrequited puppy love is going to have him scrapping decades of good will? It's one of those lazy sorts of character turns that I just don't care for. |

I could honestly do without the bunkhouse bunny bullshit. Both of those girls are annoying as hell. The writing sometimes feels lazy, like they just want to get to a point so they just...make it happen. It still makes no sense to me that Rip killed the pothead money guy from last season, but whatever. Last season, I remember not liking as much because it seemed to move too slowly. Then I binged it right after and liked it a ton more. Maybe that's the case this season. I look forward to bingeing this again when it's done. |

My biggest problem with this series is how much you have to suspend belief. If the family that owned the largest ranch in Wyoming was attacked by gunmen and a bomb in three incidents on the same day, it would be national news. In this series they've already blown it off like no harm no foul. This is like "Dallas" meets "The Sopranos."
I would like to spank the chick who plays Beth. She's naughty. |

Because man - it's just the laziest of lazy writing to have him turn heel. Again - this dude murdered co-workers in cold blood, presumptively several of them, and never had an issue. Now Rip is hard on him (something he KNEW Rip would do) and he's going to leave the reservation? That just doesn't make sense. You can't spend 3 seasons demonstrating a guy's character and then just flip it overnight. Not for something that's fairly trivial in comparison to what he's looked past. |

Everyone agreed Ryan Binghams character needed to die. Then he shows back up? And he’s being the same prick he was before. The discipline is coming apart. And he sees Binghams character as a personification of the problems. And he was supposed to have hot lead in his dome. So he lashes out and catches the discipline that should have deaded Binghams character. And ancillary work, Costner comes unglued on him and gives him a little more discipline that should have got Binghams character dead. So his whole belief structure is coming apart. I don’t see the blonde chick as anything affecting Lloyd. |
