So I am new to the series, I am in season 5. The part where Sammie gets Ian sent to military prison. Sammie's character has been bugging me from the beginning. Not because of all the annoying things she does to the Gallaghers and not because shes a crazy b*tch either. It's because there is such an easy solution!!! It's taking the fun out of watching. Seriously, she has no legal right to be in the house at all... no one wants her there but all of a sudden everyone is accepting that she has taken on some kind of "motherly" role?? She's bossing everyone around and they're letting her? I can kind of rationalize it with Frank, he is their father and he has some kind of claim to ownership of the house - but with Sammie? Easy solution, call the cops! Fiona tells her to leave and she doesn't, like she has some right to be there??! Just call the police. And if you think that she would just say that she has established residency and the Gallaghers would have to go through a formal eviction process then so be it. Either do that or just beat her ass and call it a day. Change the locks, use the gun if she breaks in again. Like seriously. I just can't stand that this plot hole is so glaring. These people are supposed to be resourceful and conniving but they cant figure out how to get this mega b*tch who SHOT THEIR DAD IN FRONT OF EVERYONE out of the house? Like seriously no one called the cops when this chick was brandishing a pistol in the living room?????? Breaking and Entering Attempted Murder She could definitely go away for years, problem solved! But no, that would be too easy and no fun for the writers to use simple logic. I would love to hear another perspective on this. Because its annoying me to no end. |

You take the show too seriously. I'm mostly just in it for the sex and nudity and my name is Frank so that makes it even funnier. |
