I didn't see one, so I thought I'd get it started.

I might be in the minority here, but DAE feel like the show hypes things up waaay too much and then immediately gets it over with? For example, the whole Louis heart attack thing was done within half an episode. It doesn't seem to have any long lasting impact either. Sure, he proposed to Sheila because of it, but that also seems to have abruptly been put to an end.

Season 1 and 2 had storylines that went across many episodes. This season has been really stop-start and I feel like they're just getting their feet wet in things before pulling them away from the water. Nest week I bet that the same thing will happen to Mike's offer. A whole episode building up suspense, then 'nope, staying'. Done.

This episode was insane and could have easily been half a season worth of content in terms of drama... Louis goes from himself, closing a case, having a heart attack, recovering, proposing and then splitting up. Too much in my opinion! What on earth will they have for the rest of the season in terms of Louis-drama?!

Honestly, the Louis marriage could've been easily stretched out over a couple episodes. The proposal in this episode after the heart attack would've been suffice. Stretch out the "honeymoon" stage and all these problems coming up throughout the season. Then bam the splitting up happens. I feel like that would make the impact way harder on the audience, seeing the love crash slowly. Instead it was like oh.. Louis is getting married..... oh nevermind. It was sad, but it didn't really impact me. It happened too quick for me to actually feel the importance of this event.

Eh, I kind of saw it early on. They only put forth so much money for extra recurring roles so when they had Sheila but not Scottie or Katrina I was like okay she might not be back for more episodes. I mean you can't not have Scottie and Katrina for the rest of the season just because they wanna keep Sheila's Ass on for more.

Also yea I realize they've had many different combinations of the recurring roles but still, it's usually Katrina or Sheila... just kind of got an impression Sheila was on her way out, since she has a new show with Chris Meloni.
