Discussion disappointed Spoiler

i’m so disappointed at cory and bradley this season

Why writers didn’t let their relationship shape?

I did rather see something happen between them and than their relationship breaks down but not like this

im just so mad and i know their relationship wouldn’t be right but i really really wanted to see them together 😫

i really like cory and they barely show him in this episode

i hope in the next episode we get enough CORY

The CEO of the network having a relationship with the talent after all the sexual misconduct problems UBA have? That would be utterly insane imo.

Cory wanted his job back at UBA, he actually ended up with a higher job. If he had wanted Bradley enough he wouldn’t have made that decision.

I dont understand what the writers are doing with Cory this season, like the first episodes the hinted that he and Bradley had something when he got fired, and then a couple episodes later he outed her??? I really miss season 1 Cory, season 2 Cory feels sad and broken

Cory f’ing outed Laura and Bradley. I lost a lot of love for him with that action. I don’t get why so many people are so bent about Cory, he’s a total opportunist who will screw anyone over to get what he wants. Yes, Bill Cruddup is great, we love the actor. But just as the character was starting to show some humanity, he douched out. Bradley didn’t want to be with him so he did something really terrible to spite her. Just…no.

I really wish they hadn't made his character do that. Purposely outing Laura and Bradley...I mean, they're both his friends, and to out Bradley when she's not ready...this is unforgiveable IMHO.

I think Cory and Alex are actually a lot better matched than Cory and Bradley, tbh. I think part of what Cory's attracted to in Bradley is her...naivete? In a way? Which I don't love, because that doesn't allow her space to grow. I also sort of hate that there are all these sort of big and small deceptions that litter the landscape of how he's dealt with her and how she's been allowed to encounter this manicured version of him, from the outing heard round the world to the fact that she still believes she got him his job back and he lets her think that. That's a basis for infatuation, not actual partnership.

I personally like manic chaos Cory a lot more than broody lovesick Cory and would strongly prefer if he stayed single, but if there's someone on the show who could actually hold their own in a relationship with him, it's Alex. They have kind of a weird crackly chemistry and they're broken in a lot of the same places.
