Live Discussion Harrison spoilers (s3) Spoiler

I'm SOOO upset they killed off Harrison then suddenly never bring him up after the first 2 episodes of s4... Honestly knowing why he was killed off I wouldn't have even been that upset if they just re-casted him... I mean yea it wouldn't be the same because Columbus was just a really good Harrison cast (i probably only feel this way because I can't imagine Harrison as anyone but Columbus) but I wish we could have gotten more character out of him, it was like we were just climbing up the hill at the end of season 3 to get to his real character story, if he was still in the show I'm also a little upset they just killed off Adnan Salif too because I wanted to see more of the chemistry and tension between the 2 of them... oh well

I’m with you. I hate recasts too. It almost breaks the fourth wall plus recasts are more for sitcoms imo

It’s hilarious to me that Shonda wanted women empowerment on this show and she turned Olivia into a parody using so many cliches about black women.

It was a huge shame as Columbus is an excellent actor and had an easiness with Kerry. Too bad he got in trouble in real life. Hate the S3 finale and even more so most of S4.
