Current Events > I'm still watching Crazy Ex Girlfriend, final season. But... (spoilers?)

(+) Yeah! (+)

They replaced Greg's actor? Omg why. Even the 4th wall jokes about Greg looking different aren't enough to soften the blow.

Huh, the new Greg actor is called Skylar Astin, and he's also a love interest in the new show Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist, so I guess there's just something about him that screams romcom love interest. And to add to the coincidence, both shows feature musical numbers as part of the show so that makes sense.

Anyway been watching the show the past 2 months and excited to see what direction season 4 will end the series on.

I think the original actor had a conflicting schedule.

I love that they acknowledge the change in the show, though.

Also I can't believe it took until season 4 to see the top 2 musical numbers that I saw before I even knew about the show, and it's by one-off characters/side characters:

This one is absurdly good and catchy, and the character barely had any role or lines before this

This is Too painfully self-aware, my first thought was macauly culkin but there could be others.

This is another new one I hadn't seen before the episode:

I love the monster mash so this one was destined to be great

And I love the Rebecca/Valencia/Heather/Paula dynamic, the show is really good during their scenes together, working off each other.

I hope you like season 4 more than I did. I mean, it was good, but the first half of the season kinda meandered for a while before the plot kicked in and the second half got waaay too self-referential. It's cute the first few times, but eh.

I only watched that show to look at Rachel Bloom's stunning breasts. She definitely looked her best in season 3.

I mean first off the show really struck a cord with me at how it displays mental illness and the struggles that Rebecca goes through and I can see why it struggled with the ratings, doubt anyone wanted to watch that kind of rawness.

I do appreciate how it shows Rebecca trying to cope and try to do better, even as she falls into old habits,

Was really not expecting for them to bring Greg back and do a love quadrilateral with all 3 guys.
