[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This story line is just is pulling these two down the rabbit hole. It started out ridiculous — the Beth character we know would have put a stop to Randal running for a hard-working, low-paying, elected position in another state 2-3 hours away. Even if we pretend it was possible, Beth would have called BS before this ball got rolling. Ok, now that it’s going, Beth would be onboard. Sure, she’d bitch and moan, but she’d be the supportive partner, including taking care of the children and house. She’d rediscover love of dance as a small side and volunteer gig. It would help her deal with Randal’s nonsense. FF to a work dinner conflict scenerio and there’s no way the Randal character that we know would leave that suicide voice mail on Beth’s phone. It’s too contrived, even for a work of fiction. [/quote]

Agreed.  The whole elected position being 2-3 hours away (in a different state?!) is so ludicrous.  Commuting that far every day?  No way.  And I'm all for Beth "following her bliss," but it does seem really spiteful to use being a dance teacher as the hill she's going to die on to get back at Randall.  Come on.  As you say, she could manage to teach only during the days, or on the weekends.  It's become so DUMB.[/quote]

I hope all the people complaining about the councilman storyline being ludicrous are not the same people who told us Pittsburgh people to stop critiquing every inconsistency with Pittsburgh geography/history.

See, the Pittsburgh inconsistencies was just the canary in the coal mine regarding how much the show's writers want us to suspend disbelief. We tried to warn yinz![/quote]
