Now I'm thinking that the fate of the guy in the opening title sequence is Dan's fate. Or at least metaphorically because we start with him at the top of his game and immediately start seeing all the different ways in which he's really not.
'The Message'
Cable Drama: Still Waiting for the Cable Guy to Show Up with the Thread Name...
To be determined... (but it's definitely [NAFDA])
The Closer - I don't like it when Brenda is in danger. I loved that she was upset that the guy was dead and she didn't get his confession. Plus, I enjoyed Fritz proposing at the doctor's office.
I loved that she pulled out her tape recorder and tried to get the guy's confession.
I loved Fritz's proposal too! Personally living with Brenda would drive me nuts, but he obviously loves her and gets her. I was worried when the guy shocked Brenda that this was going to be a cliffhanger or something, but then she shot him. At first I was confused about why she had the tape recorder out, but of course she's going to want a confession from this guy!
Saving Grace -- I like Perry, Grace's new boss. I was worried they were going to set up an antogonistic relationship between Grace and the new boss, and I was surprised when they were friends and the catch up gossip. Plus Perry's reaction to whathisname that Grace is sleeping with was more about his football loyalties than anything else.
My favorite line: Girl, you used to have standards! No taste, but standards! (which I am totally going to use on one of my friends.
That was a good line.
For anyone watching Damages, I thought this post from a legal blog was amusing: [link]
Even though I haven't seen the episode, this sounds promising:
Yes, that's right. It's all about a discovery dispute! Patty Hewes complains about not getting the document discovery she's entitled to; defense counsel boasts that he's produced over 850,000 documents thus far; and Hewes says she wants MORE DOCUMENTS. The judge expresses annoyance at both parties and their squabbling.
NOW we're talking realism...
But with more murder.
I actually fell asleep in part of this. Possibly because they attempted to show Patty's more human side and had her being death-threatened by her son .
Rescue Me: that ending. . . abrupt, no?
Also, Sheila is still nuts -- I wish that he'd given the baby to somebody else.
