I didn't like the 'Owen ran off' thing either, despite not wanting the two to be together. It reeked of drama and angst simply for the purpose of breaking the two up - THEN THEY WENT AND GOT BACK TOGETHER ANYWAY. Like...if they were really going to go that route, they shouldn't have gotten Jane and Owen back together imo. Owen's excuse was shit too, and the whole engagement was so rushed in the first place; I could barely believe in one episode he went from 'I don't believe in marriage, lol' to 'Jane, marry me?' The fuck?

See, I actually believe Grayson should love Jane for Jane too, but I think he already does. He's just an idiot and it took him a long ass time to realize that, and the show is terrible at expressing it. So Luke's reasoning just came off as more 'I want to ruin your happiness' more than 'I'm looking out for your best interests'. Agreed about too many plot points. I'm crossing my fingers that the finale is good and that if the show is renewed, next season will be different.

Yes, agreed! When Owen proposed, I was like, "Are you for real?" And when he was gone, I KNEW they were going to have him come back in a few episodes and it'll be some misunderstanding. I really didn't want them to go there, but they did.

I completely agree that Grayson should love Jane for Jane, and it seems like he did but he didn't realize it. Honestly, they could have played it out like Grayson knows that he loves Jane but he's afraid to lose Deb so he's finding excuses to "see" Deb in Jane. Instead, they decided that Luke needed to ruin everything because Jane was going to tell Grayson that she's Deb. I don't get that. They spent the whole of last season setting up that Grayson and Jane grow closer together with Jane being Jane, never letting Grayson grow onto the fact that Jane is Deb. So I didn't understand why at the beginning of this season they played it out that Grayson began to piece together that Jane was Deb, and that's why Luke had to break them up.

I was thinking something very similar at the beginning of the season. And that explanation would've made way more sense than Grayson suddenly suspecting that Jane might be Deb. TBH I'm hoping that in the finale they'll pull off something like this; Grayson will say that he was just scared or confused about his feelings and will confess his love for Jane as Jane, though because it's Lifetime something will go sideways and the episode will end on a cliffhanger. I just hope the cliffhanger isn't as bad as last seasons (lol, who am I kidding?) because the image of sad!Grayson looking out that window stayed with me for far too long.

So I didn't understand why at the beginning of this season they played it out that Grayson began to piece together that Jane was Deb, and that's why Luke had to break them up.

All in all I love this show, and sometimes the writing is surprisingly good and heartfelt, but some of the choices they've made for this series...my mind refuses to compute. At all. You'd think they were incompetent, but I know better! IDK, they just dropped the ball this season.

Yeah, their season ending cliffhangers are pretty crappy, though I have to admit last season's cliffhanger totally ruined me. I was crying really hard, and I was cooking after the episode ended and I was still bawling. I don't know if that's a good thing or not.

IDK, they just dropped the ball this season.
I agree, completely. I really love the show too, because it can be really good, but the rest of the time, I'm frustrated.
