With just two episodes remaining in the season, we finally see some Shakespeare content. But to get there we have to struggle through Jack’s “method” of finding the lines. Without him, there’s no vision, and none of the other actors can do what they need to do.

Claire is terrible, Ellen is insufferable, and Oliver’s not a witch. Holly may or may not be trying to actually kill May, but Richard’s just happy he has a girlfriend. Geoffrey’s got no vision, no money, no set, no costumes, and now nothing but a dress rehearsal before the show must go on. How’s it all going to end?

Join us next time to see how it all works out! Have we come this far just to end up with something rotten? One more episode to go!
