TV show description:
This legal-mystery drama revolves around a college professor who, along with her students, gets intertwined in a murder case that strikes close to home.
A Criminal Law professor, Annalise Keating (Viola Davis) is brilliant, sexy, passionate, charismatic, and unpredictable. As fearless in the courtroom as she is in the classroom, Annalise is a defense attorney who represents the most hardened, violent criminals. She’ll do almost anything to win their freedom.
It seems like she has it all — including a successful career and a loving husband, Sam (Tom Verica). However, Annalise’s relationship with a local Philadelphia detective named Nate (Billy Brown) forces her to confront secrets about her life.
Every year, Annalise selects a group of the smartest, most promising students to come work at her law firm. The students vying for this coveted position include:
Wes Gibbins (Alfred Enoch) is a wide-eyed, likable boy-next-door who’s recently been accepted off the waitlist. Michaela Pratt (Aja Naomi King) is a confident and ambitious overachiever who was born knowing how to “lean in.”
A sly and sophisticated heartbreaker, Connor Walsh (Jack Falahee) is used to getting any prize he lays his eyes on. Laurel Castillo (Karla Souza) is a quiet and sensitive idealist who’s easy to underestimate. And Asher Millstone (Matt McGorry) is an entitled know-it-all who was born into a world of Ivy League educations and country club memberships.
The students all work under two of Annalise’s dedicated associates: Frank Delfino (Charlie Weber) is a local Philly boy who’s “done good.” Bonnie Winterbottom (Liza Weil) is a sweet, observant team-player with a hidden edge.
Along the way, Wes becomes entangled with his mysterious neighbor, Rebecca Sutter (Katie Findlay). She becomes the main suspect in the murder of a beautiful university coed. Annalise takes on Rebecca’s case and it becomes the perfect opportunity to teach her students about the dark truth about the law and our justice system.
Working for Annalise is the opportunity of a lifetime for the students, one that can change the course of their lives forever. This murder plot rocks the entire university.
Episode #90 — Stay
Annalise discovers there’s a surprise witness that threatens her case. Meanwhile, Connor tries to persuade the K3 to go along with a new plan. Elsewhere, a lie between Frank and Bonnie threatens their relationship as Annalise’s killer is finally revealed.
First aired: May 14, 2020.
What do you think? Do you like the How to Get Away with Murder TV show? Do you think it should have ended or been renewed for a seventh season?
I do enjoy this show, but agree with BJS that the sex scenes can be a little over the top and don’t really add anything to the show. But here are my thoughts on the season finale – all while watching I couldn’t help but identify numerous forensic mistakes that a sure to get these guys caught – from taking the rug (hello, where’s that giant rug that used to be in the room) to the huge blood spot on the floor (which even after cleanup will illuminate with Luminol) and too many other mistakes to be counted.

This is the best show on TV. I has to continue!

I love this show and I don’t want it to be cancelled. I do how ever think that the sex scenes go way past the point that they need to be taken.
This is one of the best new shows!! Please do not cancel!!
It would be insane for ABC to not continue this show. It is the best new show to come along in several years. There are no other mystery shows that can compare to it.
No no no
Don’t give up this fantastic show!
OMG!!! ABC would be INSANE to cancel this brilliantly written, expertly casted, television show. There hasn’t been a show on TV this good since the premier of…hell, I can’t think of a show this good…like…EVER! The storyline is so brilliant and the cast is “SPOT-ON”. Every character was expertly casted and each one pulls off their role as if this was a real-life, non-scripted scenario of life, love, lies, betrayal, deceit, and success. The storyline is so expertly crafted and beautifully written, it would be a TRUE CRIME for this series to be cancelled! ABC…this is the best show you… Read more »
I love this show I hope they make the second season.
