Re: Saving Grace--Butch was seeing Bobby's wife? Oh, that's definitely new.

Dear god, these cops. So much for that partnership.

And speaking of which, no we never saw anyone else get nekkid but Grace (and occasionally Ham).

I watched Damages last season, but I decided not to watch this season. I really liked the actors last year, but I couldn't keep track of all of the changes. It might be worth renting this season when it comes out on DVD and watching it over a few days.

I think that the reformed partnerships are going to be difficult.

(I actually thought that Ham and Butch were working really well together last night.)

And yes - Holly is the most naked series lead I know of. Man, I thought I saw blood on her body when she woke up in the car. I'm glad it wasn't what I thought it was.

I can't believe that anyone in that police department is surprised that Grace would come under investigation.

Speaking of Bobby, do we know if his partner was illicitly seeing his wife, or was that idea new this week?

It was new this week, I think. Graham's been taking care of Bobby's family while he's been undercover, but when I was watching the first scene in the bar last night, I thought I saw a little something with Graham and the wife and thought "oh, that could turn into something".

I can't believe that anyone in that police department is surprised that Grace would come under investigation.

No, I don't think that anyone's surprised. IA's been gunning for her for a while. I think that they were more surprised that it was Abby.

Damn, I really need to get caught back up with Saving Grace. Maybe this weekend. I saw the first episode with Christina Ricci and I thought that could be an interesting relationship to follow.

Shallow Saving Grace observation: Bobby, with the glasses at the crime scene, daaaaaamn.

Dominic West chides the Beeb for not being up to the standards of 'high end drama' ala the Wire.

I guess it's not just Jimmy giving a fuck when it's not his turn, but DW as well.

Damages finale? Nothing?

I liked it. Didn't care for the rewind bit in the first few seconds - it took me completely out of the story. Yeah I know I'm watching a tv show, but why emphasize that by rewinding during the show?

I thought Frobisher was going to buy it when he's chatting away on his cell phone with ex-wife, saying everything is going to be okay (like a leaf on the wind), but I'm glad he didn't.

I liked how they brought the story around, leaving it open for Tom and Ellen to be back at work with Patty next season.

I'm not entirely sure how they left it open for Patty and Ellen to work together again--why would either of them want to?

The only reason I get that they have is because of meta rationale.
