They both need to submit these scenes on their Emmy reels. ME for lead and JS for supporting actor. I think this is the best work Josh has done since he joined the show. I was very impressed by him today.
This being a soap, of course their scenes were going to be overly dramatic. Since when does Finn think that Chase has a perfect life? And his drinking aside, nothing has happened (yet) to count as grounds for Chase or anyone to remove Violet. Should Finn simply cooperate? Yes! But I get why he doesn't want to. He's not thinking straight and he wants to hold onto his little girl. Clearly he's going to have to hit rock bottom before he goes to rehab.
It's been 18 years and I still cannot stand Spinelli aka Spin Dork. I know he's Maxie's baby daddy but he adds nothing to the show for me. He bugs me. Always has. At least now he doesn't talk in riddles as much and he dropped the nicknames.
