I woke up earlier than I have to because I'm full of thots it turns out, but I wanted to talk about ostark for a hot minute here, because as much as I think he was a bit careless in his post episode interviews and deleted story, people are being a bit hasty here. Let's imagine the guy is really that self absorbed that only cares about the praise.
But then let's do a 180 and talk about Rafa Silva. My fellow countryman is a late immigrant to the USA and is an out actor. He gets the part to play a cop, something I think those of us who follow Rafa knows he he is aware and mindful of copaganda, but the character so happens to also be gay and struggle with it, pretty much like Rafa himself did. He does a pretty remarkable job, LS is about to end and he's already booked as a main on another show, a Latino immigrant, not even 1st gen.
Now going back to ostark, I find it difficult to believe he would personally shut down a storyline just because he allegedly doesn't like his co-star. Even going by the selfish pov, the gains would far outweigh any personal discomfort. I mean, he didn't even hyped up the relationship pre and post filming 8a because he already knew what would happen and if he did, that would be fucking cruel. Not to defend him on other instances I think he's at fault, but that would be incredibly dumb carer-wise
Lfj was supposedly only to do less episodes than he actually did and someone said 'hell naw bring that dude back' so his participation was expanded. After the probably unexpected backlash, there is high chance someone will do that again because in a purely marketing pov, they would also be pretty dumb not to surf that hype. Assuming they were really unaware of the impact the storyline and tommy's character would have in general audiences also, which is what I think it is.
Anyway, let's just hope lfj will get that call this week a-stat
