Tropes Are Not Bad turns out to be this case, however, as both critics as well as audiences agree the show has improved as a result. Heavily subverted after the Retool for the second season where the story goes from being a crime drama to a much more comedic Dramedy.However, Word of Dante is that the show isn't that way. Lighter and Softer: Thus far, the tone of this show has been much more light-hearted than that of Scandal or How to Get Away with Murder.An issue mirrored by her daughter when she tries to take over at age fifteen. Given she turned out to have been a teenager at the time she left, it's also clear she may have had a bit of an entitlement issue. Averted as it turns out it was more Margot's Unreliable Narrator status as her mother took over after just fine. ![]() She was next in line to replace him, but does not believe she would ever have been allowed to do so, which appears to be the reason she left. He-Man Woman Hater: The leader of the syndicate Margot used to belong to who was actually her father seems to be quite the misogynist.This is, according to Word of God, in no small part due to John Simms and Sonya Walger's fan favorite status.

Fanservice: Surprisingly, this has a fair amount for a network show.She appeared in every episode, but was always credited as a guest star. Fake Guest Star: Gina Torres as Justine Diaz in season two.Depraved Bisexual: Both Felicity and The Benefactor are this, the latter moreso since he isn't afraid to kill anyone who gets in his way.Dark and Troubled Past: Margot previously served some people who appear to be very dangerous, and is not yet free from her obligations to them.Con Artist: Given the premise of the show, this is justified to some extent."Christopher" describes his criminal identity Mr. It even applies to Ben and Margot's fifteen year old daughter Tessa.

Big Bad: The Benefactor is set up to be one.Anti-Hero / Anti-Villain: As in most Shonda Rhimes shows, most of the cast are morally grey.Sadly, it doesn't work out, but that's through no fault of his. He may be a ruthless crime leader, but he holds no grudge over being held at gunpoint by Alice and even tries to help her and Benjamin escape. ![]() Affably Evil: The Benefactor, more or less, turns out to be this.In spite of this it was cancelled after its second season in 2017.
