I love A, so I'm happy he is still there. AD's character was useless. I agree with Drew that they shouldn't have named her Adrianna when there is an Adrienne and Arianna on the show. Now hopefully, Rafe will be the next Hernandez to leave.

Hopefully his demotion to recurring is just a cost saving measure and we'll still be seeing him on a regular basis when he returns.
He's not disappearing for months and months. He'll be on in September.

I never cared for the mom. I wish we could lose Dario too. I'm also of the mindset of I love Eduardo and Gabi the most with some Rafe.

I'm not a big fan of the Hernandez family but I've come to realize that I like the women (Arianna, Gabi, Adrianna) more than the men (Rafe, Dario, Eduardo).

Honestly, the amount of airtime they have already made them seem like they were recurring anyway so this is of very little consequence IMO.

I actually never felt like it was Higley's idea to expand the family outside of bringing in Eduardo and bringing back Dario. She created the Dario character and wrote quite a bit for him in 2011 and she wrote a ton for Rafe from 2008-2011 so those 2 are clearly faves of her's. She never seems to want to write much for Gabi. From 2009-2011, Gabi got very little other than her C story romance with Will.

It's becoming obvious now that Griffley never worked well together and that is why there has been so much upheaval and back and forth. Higley had her vision, Griffith had his. They put things together at first and then Higley got her turn before her LOA. Then she left. Griffith got his turn. Then Dena came back and he left. In the end, shockingly, Griffith ended up being a mess and the best part of this regime ended up being the first few months leading up to the 50th when they worked together and even then it was a mess at times.

If I had known what I know now, I probably would have skipped the past 9 months of shows, what a fucking waste of time.

I think that might change this time around. CB seems to be working a lot.

Honestly, that may have more to do with them wanting more story for JJ (and the Deveraux family) and Chad than Gabi herself but, yeah, I agree.

It sucks because the show was wise to try to tap into the hispanic demo and do this. Clashing visions just killed it, just like everything else on this show in the past few years.

I enjoyed seeing Adriana and Eduardo during the kidnapping story but since then we only ever saw them eating. Both actors are actually very good and it is a shame that days doesn't know what to do with good talent. Would have liked to have seen Eduardo do more PI stuff with black patch. However, on the flip side, I am annoyed that they constantly bring in new characters and give them stories that don't enhance current character stories and take away from so many core characters on the show.

I love the Hernandez family, especially Rafe and Gabi. My least fave is Dario but only because the actor doesn't seem to fit in with them. I'm glad A is going to be around some but I will miss Moma Hernandez.

Not surprising. When Eve does return full time, I'd like to see more of Eduardo. An Eduardo, Eve, Justin, Adrienne quad could be really good.

If yesterday was really Adriana's last day I wonder if they will say where she's at? Or if she will just never be mentioned again?

Eddie has grown on me and I love Gabi. Dario can go jump off a cliff for all I care. Rafe is so so with me. They need to get him away from Hope and put him back in cop mode. I liked him when he was working with Chad.

I won't miss Arianna that much, but I hope A will be back on a regular basis before long.

Anyway, this works fine. Honey, you look horrific.

Mami H - there were so many other times when it made sense to bring on this character and the excuse was always she was too ill to leave West Salem. Bringing her back and then doing nothing with her except to be a scolding nag was pointless.

I'm glad A is sticking around. He works well with John and Gabi and I liked him with Eve - but not with Kate. I imagine recurring status for him let's him film Longmire and other projects. I hope they keep him on, he's a good actor and they could do a lot with him.

I like A Martinez, but Alma most likely being gone is good news. Adriana was an annoying character and she is not needed.


Most annoying, LOL...that could be a list

So true! Just like how I finally got used to JPL & he's out. (I would gladly sacrifice him for JKJ, but still...)

I waited months to see some kind of story (no matter how small) of Julie actually running the B&B, and now it's been sold to Kate. Such a mess all around.
