We know Viola's character lies for a living. What would stop her from lying to a student?

I was really hoping they would reveal a woman, um...

I really liked it too. I wasn't expecting the body to be who it was -- but I couldn't tell who I WAS expecting! So, the real question is, of course, WHO actually killed him??

It reminded me of the Desperate Housewives pilot (minus the giggles). Maybe someone will be getting a letter in the mailbox soon with the words "I know what you did, and it makes me sick."

Enjoyed it very much, was surprised to see who was in the carpet, can't wait to see where it goes.


Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist. Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino. This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more. Tazber's: Reply to Is Stephen Schwartz a Practicing Christian

I think this series has the potential to keep us on our toes with twists and turns...it's pretty smart, and I know I wanna know more!

I don't know. I am going to give it another couple of episodes, but I didn't love it.

FULL OF SPOILERS!!!

It reminded me of Scandal, in that nothing is black and white. No character is clean. It just didn't offer any sort of build to that, like Scandal did. Viola's character, while someone I would have loved as a professor, didn't seem to have any personal redeeming qualities. I had no reason to invest in her. She's cheating on her husband, who is apparently cheating on her with at least her colleague and probably his recently dead student. She's willing to push her boyfriend into either lying on the stand or admitting to something privately shared in pillow talk. She has that freaky weird moment with her new student. If the conversation with Wes WAS legit, it seemed incredibly out of character for this character we barely know. If her character is capable of that, to me, it crumbles the whole idea of who this strong woman would be. She seems like a damn nut. I thought she was certainly acting, but then when there was no immediate "that oughtta do it" look, I questioned it. I didn't care about any of the secondary characters.

I am hoping it improves.

^ Everything you write above is what makes me want to watch. We've been watching men behave so badly for the last few years that to see a woman (a black woman at that) become the anti-heroine is dizzying in the most wonderful way.

It was mildly entertaining but only due to Viola Davis. The premise is pretty ridiculous. I get that 'no one expected a realistic depiction of law school' but this wasn't even in the same hemisphere.

In an interview, the creator says that each week will get a stand alone mystery that will be solved by episode end. But... I didn't think this one was? We saw that she (probably) got her BF to lie to get her client off, but...

It could be either, I suppose (though of course she didn't deny it when her student asked that question.) Either way, the mystery wasn't solved (not that I was too invested in whodunnit in that case.)

Took me all week to get through it because I have a lot going on but I LOVE that this isn't about a male hierarchy.

I actually liked this episode even more. The "case of the week" (Steven Weber!) was more fleshed out and more interesting, I think.

Steven Weber's character was like a poor man's Colin Sweeney from The Good Wife.

I do find the show entertaining, mostly because Viola Davis is such a talent.

I wouldn't call the show high drama, but it is a fun little piece of fluff, even though it's ridiculous.

I finally watched ep. 1 last night, and didnt love it. I LOVE Viola as much as anyone here, or more, and she is terrific.

The problem, and why I stopped watching Grey's, beside the fact that I hated the main character/actor, was that it was just too far fetched. I wanted to like it, but I rolled my eyes too much. I will definitely give it a few more episodes.

I didnt like any of the other characters or actors in that episode. I know the characters arent fleshed out yet, but was hoping for a good ensemble. I really liked McGorry on "Orange...", but not here.

Whereas, back when I watched Grey's, I assumed they thought they were doing legit drama, with Murder I get no sense of that, so the far fetched part doesn't bother me. All the marketing, and the show itself, seems to be about what a campy, guilty pleasure it is.

Agreed...which is why i don't mind giving it a few more chances.

I mean, I watch "American Horror Story" for gosh sake!

Ha! And so do I. My issue with AMHS is when Murphy (Falchuk is eternally silent about the show,) claims it is tackling social issues, or is brave in some other way. I think the main thing right now for him, from all of the AMHS interviews is an emphasis on how scary this season will be -- after some fan backlash over how crappy his camp season last year was.

Anyway :P How to Get Away With Murder, I think, is targeted towards people who didn't find Scandal (which I admit, I don't watch,) scandalous enough. I'm fine with that. But I admit, with that expectation in mind, on last night's episode I still found Viola's character's tears at certain scenes hard to believe. So either there is some reveal that they will make about how everything in her own life has been manipulated (similar to the questions about her scene about wanting a child in last week's episode,) or the show has already gone wildly off track.

I did like that the "case of each episode" this week actually made it clear who the killer was. It was fun seeing Steven Webber--my main thoughts on him are how when I was a kid I was obsessed with Tim Daly who was his brother, I think, on Wings. Seeing him on The Shining miniseries which I only remember thinking was awful, and how heartbreakingly great he was as Sam Blue, the married man Judy kept going back to on Once and Again.

Annalise’s husband is the weakest in the cast, very little chemistry with her.

Murder isn't shy in showing skin on skin, which I like, especially the gay scene.

I think knowing that we know the husband is killed makes me care about him less.

ericmontreal, Steven Weber was also very good in Murder in the First which ran this summer. It was a very good show with an incredible cast and so much better than HTGAWM.
