A detail that I'd forgotten in the years since I last saw this episode is that, after they find the boy and Spaulding asks for his promised 15 minutes, Jack throws up in the bushes.

I always felt bad for Jack in that scene - it was a good example of what the job demands/takes out of you. Also, alhtough Jack had the worst job, how creepy would it have been to have been Martin sitting in the front hearing your boss go all pedophile.

I remember that episode. Creepy is the word. I couldn't believe they'd actually gotten to film and show that scene where Jack is negotiating with the pedophile.

I like John Turturro, and I like Oliver Platt, yet something about The Bronx is Burning seems off to me. Bad direction or something. Everyone looks stiff.

Rescue Me: I really liked the montage at the beginning of the funeral and the guy -- whoever that was - discovering the Chief's body.

Is it likely that Tommy will be promoted to Chief? Or is he too far below that rank?

And I wonder where they're going with this thing where the baby "hates" Janet.

I think it could happen eventually.(Although he does have an authority problem and at least one member of the brass hates his guts, so...) Of course I know more about the Baltimore police hierarchy than FDNY. But really the part that would help me explain to newbies why I love that show is the part where the Probie is grieving for his mother and he says something about not making gay jokes, and Lou hugs him and they agree "No gay jokes...today." Tomorrow, they'll have tons of them. I loved that.

I've been watching Burn Notice. I like it, but the voice overs a little annoying.

I like it, too. I don't like Fiona though. They're taking the violent, needy streak too far.

I like the violent streak but not the needy one.

I like the voiceovers, but I'm not sure why. I like the MacGyver-y bits. The stories are still pretty thin, and they are filling a lot of air time with scenic shots of Miami.

I like the violent streak but not the needy one.

It's too over the top sometimes, like when she rigged the car to blow up as opposed to not work.

Another thing is that they often show Micheal's social awkwardness, like when he was buying the cheap cell phone and the woman said "oh, are you buying it for your daughter" and he said "no", and she looked at him strangely. that's the kind of stuff that makes people remember you, and you don't want people to remember you if you're a spy. He was also awkward when talking to Sophie. You'd think that a good spy would know how to say what people need/want to hear.
