a bit about tlw 6.07 Last Couple Standing

Okay, so I skipped the 6th episode. I saw a recap of it and had no wish to subject myself to more of Jenny being a total bitch at everyone. Not that this episode is any better at it, but at least there is an added bonus of a Dylan/Helena resolution. A wonderful drama free resolution at that. Finally. Though, from the looks of the finale previews, I shouldn’t be holding my breath. God, why am I still watching this show? Probably, because I’m a glutton for punishment, that’s why.

Anyway, to the highlights/snarkfest:

• Leisha Hailey as Alice cracks me up everytime. She has some of the best lines this season so far. Definitely one of my favorite characters.
• I love the little competition between Bette (jennifer Beals) and Alice during the dance marathon. It’s so reminiscent of their friendship in Seasons 1-3 and we’ve only seen bits and pieces of it the past couple of seasons.
• I’m so convinced Jenny is gonna kill herself in the last episode. That, or the audience will. I don’t think the rest of the gang have it in them to commit Jenny-cide, no matter how the hate they girl.
• Poor Shane. Feeling rather trapped now are we? Shane really has to grow up and stop being such a pushover.
• Yay, for Dylan and Helena deciding to start anew. Rachel Shelley has been  looking particularly gorgeous in the past few episodes. Hopefully, that’s a good sign for her character. Just one more episode and Dylena will be home free.
• Bette and Tina’s dance routine was pure win.
• Alice, Tasha and Jamie’s dance routine had me laughing my ass off
• Max isn’t in this episode, nor is he even mentioned. For someone who has a big storyline this season, he seems to be absent a lot.
• Poor Alice. Leisha Hailey manages to be funny and gradually becoming vulnerable at a possible heartbreaking situation, by the end of the episode.
• Last, but not least: How in heaven’s name are they gonna tie up all these loose ends in just one hour in the last episode?
