if you could predict your own perfect ending/happy endings for each of the characters, not just romantically, but individually as well, where do you hope they all end up by the end of the show? i'd love to know your thoughts...

Let's see...

I want to see Preach continue to teach and really inspire kids. If he can manage the classroom and earn their respect and then foster in them a desire to learn??? Hopefully he gets paid more and has tenure as all educators should. I'd love to see a fostered mentorship with Jordan and the continued closeness he shares with Coop. And I hope he and Amina make each other so, so happy.

I want to continue to see the closeness between Denise, Laura, and Grace. I want Denise to find herself a man who is thoroughly blown away by her and worships her if she still wants that in her life. I want Grace to be super settled and happy with Carter, and I hope that carries on in Oakland if that's where they want to be. Hopefully she'll be a badass city planner.

And I want to see Laura thrive in whatever she's passionate about. The teaching thing was a 180 for me, but if that's what she wants to do, she should. Not sure if she'll have a new partner, but she'll definitely be surrounded by her family and loved ones.

I want to see JJ helping people. He loves people and has a big heart that should be in use. Maybe he'd take part in social work or as a candy striper or something. He doesn't need the money, so he can really follow whatever passion he wants. And I want to see him with a boyfriend, but that's a pipe dream for now.

I want to see catience together and stronger than ever as a team. I fear for Patience's life if she continues singing, and she was so wishy washy about her fame and passion this season. So no clue what I want to see her doing. And I absolutely want to see Coop killing it as an incredible lawyer. I've been very on board with this new focus for her, and I'm excited for her.

I want to see jasher together with their kid. I want to see Jaymee continue to bring the best out of Asher, and I want to see Asher continue to be a stable force amidst the uncertainties Jaymee faces day to day. I want to see them as a strong family unit, whatever that looks like. And I want to see Asher continue to put his coaching talents to great use. Love this career path for him.

I want to see Spelivia together and married and thrive as the true power couple they are. I want to see Spencer as the star he is in the NFL and Olivia out in the stands cheering him on. I want to see Olivia with a handful of Pulitzers and continue to make serious change in the sports world and/or the rest of the world. I want to see them with a kid because they have so much love to give as potential parents. I want to see them surrounded by their family and friends.

I want to see Jordayla married and hopefully with a little girl. That would be full circle for Layla's time capsule. I want to see Jordan as QB in the NFL, and if he happens to find another passion later on, I want to see that too. It'd be very cool if he and Spencer were on the same team still, but I can't bank on that. I want to see Layla as a producing mogul where she eclipses her dad in talent and success. And I want to see Jordan and Layla keep the people in their lives that they cherish close to them.

I want happy endings for everyone! I want to see ambition and success and joy and continued friendship and so much love.

I miss my man 💔💔😔😔😔 (he doesn’t exist and probably wouldn’t even like me if he did)

[mischief-marauders]

Regulus (walking up to Remus at the bar): Why if it isn’t Sirius’ little gay werewolf. Where’s my brother? Don’t you homosexuals always travel in pairs?

James (walking up to Regulus without noticing Remus): Hey babe, sorry they didn’t have sugar free strawberries for your margarita

Remus (bursts out laughing): Well look how cute you two are. The brown stallion and my little pony.

Question about the parents, for Laura, Billy and Grace, we've all seen them have close relationships with at least one of more of their kids' friends...but do you think they have favorites in the vortex outside of their own children? For eg. Grace treats Coop like her own because she and Spencer have been inseparable since they were kids. But for Laura and Billy it's a bit more tough, because Billy (outside of his own kids), he was a close coach/mentor/father figure to everyone he coached at Beverly and Crenshaw- his last convo on the bus with Asher spoke volumes. And Laura has been a landlord for quite some time to almost every character on the show, but I feel like she's close with almost all the kids on the show. But who do you think their faves are/have a closer bond with, and which are some of your favorite parents/kid scenes for Billy, Laura and Grace that may not necessarily be with their own kids?

Billy was, most emphatically, closest to Spencer. It was treasured, poked fun of, caused issues, and was the catalyst for Spencer's heartbreak after Billy died. Like, that's his son. And yeah, he was a nice mentor to Asher and a nice father figure to Layla, but nothing compares to the special bond he had with Spencer. Hard to pick a moment, but their pilot scene is super iconic. Although I also really liked when Billy told him there were enough ribs for him in episode 2, openly welcoming him to the family.

As you said, Billy was incredibly close to Asher. Billy forgave him for the stupid shit Asher pulled, encouraged him to be better, and then was so proud of the man Asher had become. And Asher was so grateful to him for all of it. I liked the moments Billy had with Asher in his last episode. It was super meaningful for both of them.

Laura is closest with Layla and Spencer. She practically raised Layla, and stepped in when her mom died. And Spencer's time staying with the Baker family brought Laura and Spencer incredibly close. I really love the scene of Laura checking in with Spencer in s1 when she could tell he was upset. And I loved how Spencer took care of the to-do's for her after they lost Billy.

And then, I obviously liked Laura's brief scene with Layla about prom, when she told her that she was everything a woman would want her daughter to be. For someone who wrestles with thoughts of not being enough, what a thing for Laura to say to her.

Laura is also becoming very close with Coop, and I really like that too. Laura has been looking out for Coop since s1, and Coop has returned the favor now and greatly admires her. My favorite scene of theirs is actually Coop protecting Laura at the repast. When she immediately declares that she'll handle things with Jabari and then tries to dismiss him privately. It's a small moment, but it shows how much she cares about Laura and steps in without a second thought.

Grace and Coop have some incredible moments. Grace is definitely closest with Coop. I really loved the moment they had when Coop and Spencer had broken up, and Grace was like, doesn't change how I feel about you. Maybe Olivia is the second? I thought her wedding dress moment with Liv was very sweet.

[emily70707]

Other than Spencer and Liv's individual growth and getting back together when they never should've broken up in the first place, literally nothing happened in terms of moving the story forward in S5, pretty much every sl was a repeat from S3. They could've used that number of episodes to move the story forward but chose to go in circles for no reason was stupid and to focus on sl's and characters that don't even matter was the worst decision. Even Billy dying didn't do anything bc Taye just wanted to leave.
