I’ve recently started watching Bull and though I understand a lot of the writing is not the most intelligent nor are Jason’s acts the most ethical, I find the show interesting and fun to watch.
The anticipation towards a previous case of Benny’s was built over a few episodes and I was honestly excited to see how it was resolved but it is somehow the worst writing the show has done yet!? I absolutely hate the way J.P. is written, I hate the way Jason seems to be acting in such a crucial time, there seem to be so many useless details the show spends time on (like JP’s restaurant, her waking up at 3 in the morning, Bull’s fascination with all of it etc.) instead of making the case interesting or involving the characters from the case into play; not to mention it feels like a man wrote JP’s role, like why does every successful women seem to be this object of desire in the show, she doesn’t have an aura of an intelligent, well rounded women but instead seems to be reduced to quirky traits and misplaced behaviours that aren’t in harmony. Am I tripping about this? What were your thoughts on this episode?
