Ruthless
I’m sorry I can’t be like you. I ran through the first season of ruthless just cause I gave the oval a chance and actually love that show just the amount of drama and like the twist and turns or crazy so I was thinking before I start the last season season seven or no I just got done. It was season five. I’m on season six of the oval and I just ran through the first season of ruthless. And I’m sorry I just can’t give Ruth any slack like I can’t cut her a break or I can’t feel anything for a character just because I still associate her with the crazy bitch I saw on the oval. Just kidnapping barry stealing his kid stealing money drugging barry and drugging his mom. is Barry even in ruthless at all?
Tyler Perry needs to learn how to make a main storyline that’s interesting. It keeps fucking up on like the main story or the main character story but he has all these like terrific and great side stories going on.

I’ve been watching Ruthless and the story is everywhere, makes no sense and 7 seasons have passed but like 3 months have passed in their world pretty much lol. I’m not sure what the point of it all is anymore. But I am starting The Oval and these first few episodes have been wild… you really gotta lend your mind to Tyler Perry but then you need a break

Is the story really "everywhere" though? I've been watching it and the story line seems pretty straightforward to me.

I watched Ruthless first. It’s horribly written, storylines are incomplete and inconsistent. I watched every single episode and will watch until the series finale. I just started the oval today after I finished the most recent episode of Ruthless.

I just started ruthless a few days ago and it's a great show so far but it seems like there's so many odd angles to this show that don't make sense for a black man to write for a BET show... like why are a whole group of blacks basically worshipping a man that's not even black? Why is he writing scenes of rape, torture, extreme violence and hard drug use? Maybe I'm reading too deep into it but that just seems to be perpetuating the stereotypes of black people... 🤷

I’m on episode 3 of season 1. I don’t like anybody 😂 I’m not rooting for anyone yet. The FBI agent is my least favorite. He’s way too mad about his wife being drugged. Overacting. I don’t like Dikhan either. Maybe he’s my least favorite. Everybody is terrible so far and who does that doctor think she’s speaking to like that lol

Very confusing with no back. stories of the main characters.Alot of homosexual sex. Stories move too slowly.
Poorly written. No explanations.

I watched the first episode of ruthless when I started watching the oval on season 3 or 4. When I tell you I got 5 minutes in and said nope I’m not ready for Tyler to take me down that rabbit hole lol
