I guess after Skave started to flourish and reach disturbing levels in This Is The Pits!, it’s arguable if Dave was the one extra of the Sky-Sugar conflict. Though at that point is was more like a Skave-Sugar conflict as Sugar wasn’t being discriminatory in her assholism, she just wanted to break them up in general. It was leaned slightly more to Sky though due to their conversation in Mo Monkey Mo Problems. But my argument was by the time Sky and Sugar developed a solid conflict of their own, Dave was no longer around, and prior to that Dave had his own minor conflict with Sugar that wasn’t directly relevant to Sky until The Pits.

If Sky was originally intended to chip in then that’d explain what she was doing in the opening. I think the Sky and Sugar page deserves a mention of Ella and Sugar in the overview, since that was the basis of their interactions up until Ella was eliminated.

Actually I didn’t overlook that, Alejandro and Mal didn’t technically break the alliance until Al “sabotaged his sabotage” and there was at least a whole night in-between that time, 12 hours give or take. More than I can say Sky and Sugar which didn’t last to the end of the episode.

Tbh, I originally like Amy because I was being biased towards Bryn McAuley (huge fan of her after watching her play Laney on Grojband). I went into denial a bit when everyone was saying how terrible she was, but now I finally see Amy as being even worse than Courtney (at least Miss CIT was tolerable for the first half of TDI). I always thought giving Amy a plot outside her being a despicable b**** 24/7 would give some depth to her character and make her a little less unlikable. She just a one-track character holding a big sign saying “I am the evil one, please hate me”. Amy has served her purpose for being a springboard for Sammy’s development and neither of them need to revolve around each other, both can go and acquire their own individuality now. Though at the moment we can’t even be certain if they’ll return.

I didn’t say I necessarily wanted Scamy to happen, I just feel if the writers are gonna keep being this predictable then that’s very likely of happening. Dave is practically confirmed to be Courtney 2.0

TDPIScarlett raised a good point the other day, it’s fine to have depthless, comic relief character like Owen or TDAS Scott, but it gets kind of ridiculous when they’re the main character of a season for no reason.

Oh that’s interesting. Though I personally didn’t consider Heather to be the best villain due to how many times she narrowly dodged elimination. She was openly evil, outright hated by everyone, yet made it all the way to the final 3. I think it was Sadie who said: “If none of us even like her, how did Heather make it so far” (mightve gotten the quote wrong), and then Eva explains “cause she’s a conniving, backstabbing little witch”. Many may call Alejandro a Villainous Stu but he’s still the most effective villain, who consecutively orchestrated the elimination of over ¾ of the cast.

I still feel Scarlett has potential though. One complaint I had with TDPI was the main hero, Shawn had almost no major conflicts (other than a miniscule one with Sugar). What I really wanted to see was a conflict between Shawn and Scarlett. Instead of using his zombie gimmick to quote TWD every three scenes, they couldve had his paranoia make him the only one who was aware of Scarlett’s nature and he spends the season trying to undermine her.
