Not really. But save for Scotty and Kevin's wedding, I wish last night's season finale of Brothers & Sisters had all been a figment of Victoria Principal's imagination.

So now that Rebecca isn't actually a Walker, they've now decided that William Walker had yet another mistress when he was alive and that mistress (who has since died) had a love child. So, yes, there is now going to be yet another long-lost child to join the clan even though we already went through this entire plot line last season.

Greg Berlanti: This season doesn't seem to be going as well as the first one.
Writers: No! Don't be silly! You're a genius! Bear my children! etc.
GB: What made the first season so great?
Writers: You! Your incredible mind! Your acerbic wit! Your sweet ass! etc.
GB: ...It was the introduction of Rebecca into the family. I think that's when things really got going.
Writers: Yes! Rebecca! Brilliant move, sir! I want your baby inside me! etc.
GB: If only we could do that plot line again, huh? But that would be ridiculous.
Writers: Completely ridiculous, sir! Awful idea! Terrible! etc.
GB: ...Unless....
Writers: Yes! Unless! Unless you come up with something! Let's do whatever your brain is thinking about! I think I just came! etc.

But aside from them recycling this plot, it still doesn't make any sense. Sarah made this big deal about how they found out about Rebecca because Sarah found out that William Walker's password was made up of the initials of his children, and the last initial in the password was R, which they assumed was for Rebecca. But now Sarah's all, "But Rebecca's not his kid, so WHY DID HE USE THE R? HUH? ANSWER ME THAT, MURDER-SHE-WROTE."

Except, as Holly points out many times, she told William that he was Rebecca's father. Even if that was a lie, he himself thought it was true. Right? So doesn't that explain the password thing?

Granted, this doesn't explain why there's a photo of the mystery baby in front of William's car, but the presence of this photo barely implies anything. I have photos of people at home whose names I don't even remember; I put a bunch of photos in a box and forgot about them. I also have photos of me with people I don't even like, but I kept the photo because I look pretty. (Yeah, I'm That Girl.) It's completely plausible that William simply had this photo for absolutely no reason.

But that's not where the writers are going with this, so... Boo.

Also, Rebecca and Justin kissed. KISSED. I mean, come on, Berlanti. This is GROSS. I could have almost got on board with this entire thing if they had spent a couple of episodes - or, you know, ONE episode - being like, "This is weird, I kinda like you and I know that there's nothing wrong with it anymore, but this is still pretty frickin' weird" and taking it slowly.

But no. Instead:

Rebecca: We're not related! LET'S MAKE OUT!
Justin: *tongue*

Such odd, unfortunate plot decisions this season.

Still, Kevin and Scotty getting married did make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, though I can't quite shake the feeling that Kevin's not good enough for Scotty. But that might just be because I love Scotty. I love him so much. I just want to hug him. Treat him well, Kevin Walker! Or your fictional ass will have to answer to me.

I know I said I'd talk about the CSI episode that was written by the writers of Two-and-a-Half Men, but I watched the episode and: meh. About as crappy as I expected. And they actually want me to believe that the sitcom star's stand-in, who is not related to her, just had some plastic surgery and now the only way to tell them apart is by a mole on the stand-in's face? Who are they, Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield? No. That is stupid. I will say that I'm glad that it didn't turn out that the sitcom star had simply switched places with her stand-in, since that's where I thought it was going. But other than that, it was as lame an episode as you'd expect. Doesn't Katey Sagal have better things to do with her time?

Also, I realized that this weekend that Chuck Lorre has been a sitcom writer for Cybill Shepherd, Brett Butler AND Roseanne? That man has balls of STEEL.
