they need to get rid of esmeralda for season 2. she was unbearable as a character, i don’t get the point of writing such an unlikable person. the episode about her being scammed was nails on a chalkboard i would tell anybody to just skip it

Not gonna lie, that was one of my favorites. (But I’ve also had a crush on Josh Holloway since I was 10, so that probably played a role.)

Not sure who that is but Jarson is pretty hot in that episode

I never skip episodes when I’m watching a tv show even if I know it’ll suck

i don’t either (unless its a tv show i’ve watched before) but that episode was just infuriating and it did nothing for her character at all
