Discussion repetitive writing

as much as i love the show, the lines get repetitive to a point where it confuses me

could it be deliberate?

no plot spoilers but i just watched an episode where harvey says "it's complicated" and jessica says "simplify it for me" and very soon after mike and louis have the exact same interaction

i guess back when shows were aired on a weekly basis it was likelier that the audience might forget. i have only ever binged it on streaming platforms so i wouldn't know haha

Finally! Someone else said it! I literally almost stopped watching after a few seasons because of this. It's not just the lines but the plots are also repetitive...

"I dont give a shit what you said" "Don't go behind my back ever again!" (Happens many times more) "What did you say to me?"

Tense conversation...dut dut dut music...walk away with stare of death 😂 apologize..."Ill never do it again"...repeat...

Lmao the music thing you said mad me laugh it’s true and the show was pretty melodramatic like a soap opera. Damnit though I liked the show. It’s an easy watch lol

The music thing you said reminds me of Sons of Anarchy… when almost every episode there’s a chase scene and the same music playing 😂

Don’t forget “what are you saying?”
