She's terse. I can be terse. Once in flight school, I was laconic.

Man, I am several episodes behind. At this point I'm just going to have to catch up over the summer.

Trudy, you seem to always get the episodes that are directed by Lucy Liu.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I do, don't I?

I'm lucky then, she's great. She's very quick, focused, calm, pleasant.

She also looks amazingly young without a stitch of makeup or any fashion to speak of.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

It's like a TV version of Where's Waldo - There's Trudy!

I loved the bit with the Jersey mobster:

J. m.: "Milo committed suicide."
Watson: "He was stabbed sixteen times."
J. m.: "Hardest he ever worked in his life."

The Trudyverse is kind of like the Tommy Westphall universe -- it's all connected.

Trudy is this neo-nazi who was protesting on Homeland, and then got arrested on Elementary, and then gets sent to jail on OITNB.

That's. Amazing.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Has anyone else seen The Doctor Blake Mysteries? it's been turning up on the local PBS station - set in Australia in the early '50s (I think). Lucien Blake is a doctor who's gone back to Ballarat to take over his father's practice and serve as the medical - consultant? - to the local police. He's kind of mournful - he and his wife and infant daughter were in Singapore when the Japanese invaded and were all taken prisoner and sent to different prison camps. He's been trying to find them (they do turn up later in the series, I think).

I see it on the schedule, but it's a bit too mournful for me.

It's good, but definitely mournful.
