just wondering how everyone feels about how Katherine Chancellor's death has been handled on the show. i think the going off on bucket list vacation line was in keeping with her character, but Murphy just looked too ok with her death to me...of course he had to carry out the "surprise" party! am behind in my viewing so will reserve judgement for a few days....in any case, the death of a lead actor must be a difficult thing to deal with, both for the writers and for the actors who were her friends.

I agree. I didn't like how the writers handled it at all. Murphy seemed just too giddy to me. And making everyone wait around while he rambled on.

As for Mrs. C. ziplining, riding the biggest roller coaster in the world, walking the Great Wall of China, doing karaoke in Hong Kong and getting a standing ovation, etc.- too far-fetched.

Being told she didn't have much time left on the planet cause of a brain tumor, would make her tired and fatigued. There is no way that she would have the energy and stamina to do those things.
