The professor/attorney is obviously a sociopath. Should be interesting.

Re: What Did You Think of 'How To Get Away With Murder'?

I don't know, I think it's so different that I won't have an opinion until I see a few more episodes. It's not tv by formula and its not a copy of some other show. It's unique. At this point, I'm interested enough to too where it goes.

I watched and though it wasn't what I expected, I'm not ready to give it up. I think that Annalise murders her husband and leaves it to the students to dispose of the body and clean things up. I also agree that the husband was messing around with his dead student.

First, I really like Viola Davis as an actress BUT this show is terrible. I could not tell what was real or imagined, who was good or bad, who was fooling around with whom. Also I could not believe that she would wear such an uncomplimentary and unrealistic wig! Mark that show off my list......who dreamed up that premise for a show......awful.

In any case the murders, two of them.... how long can they stretch it out? Seems the plot line could have been week to week, solving and or defending different murder cases using the students to do leg work.

I will see one more program, see how it goes and then forget it. Perhaps it would be better to see the last episode, only.

I'll watch another episode or two, but Shonda's shows always go off the deep end for me, and I have to quit watching. I probably haven't watched Grey's in 5 years, and last season Scandal went over the edge. It's so annoying. I feel like this one will do it sooner rather than later. There were already ridiculous things in the first episode. But that's just me. Smiley Wink

For me, the "jury is still out" for this one. Some weird stuff going on, and I'm trying to figure out how this will flow into a complete series.

I'm sure Shonda has a way to do it, so I will give it a few more weeks.

There was way too much going on for my liking, however I am willing to give it another episode or two. Are they suggesting the professor had her students kill her spouse? Confused.

That's just it Sydney. Did she get them to do it or did they find the body and dispose of it thinking she killed him? Or did the missing girl's boyfriend, the football player, and the neighbor of the one student do it? It's already surmised that the husband was fooling around with the student...so did he kill her?

Lots of twists and turns in this one.

I also have a problem with they way this is filmed. I can only speak for myself, but it is either very darkly processed or the lighting is off in a lot of scenes.
