'Get It Done'
This thread is for procedural TV, shows where the primary idea is to figure out the case. [NAFDA]
Might have some sensitivity toward at least some of the drug addicted, as long as they weren't committing other crimes to support their addictions.
Of course, if you leave your toddler to drown in the bathtub while you smoke a joint, don't expect much sympathy from Sgt. Friday.
Dragnet in the 50's was much less obviously conservative than the sixties version, but then the sixties were a very different time.
Awww, those LOL cat twins remind me of my fluffy cat.
Is Women's Murder Club a procedural?
I think so.
. Definitely rightie in the law-n-order, police are always right, damn those dirty hippies because they're all crooks anyway sense. Might have some sensitivity toward at least some of the drug addicted, as long as they weren't committing other crimes to support their addictions.
This is so interesting! I wonder when the shift occurred. The shows I know best are the early 50's radio...where the moralizing was strong, but there was always an attempt to understand where the criminal was coming from.
Loved the Mythbusters cameo on CSI tonight!! It was such a goofy ep that seeing those two made perfect sense.
yes, that was fun to see them in the background. I wish they'd gotten some lines, though.
I thought CSI was a little too weird last night. Something about the humor hit me wrong sometimes and it was FAR too jokey jokey in comparison to previous eps of CSI (and I've seen them all).
Anyone have a similar reaction?
I was wincing at Nick and the Mythbusters' going all "Cooooool!!" at the pepper-sprayed dummy being set on fire, since it is a horrific way to die and I flashed back to the guy burning in the beginning of the ep.
Nick struck the right note when he saw Tinfoil Lady on the street--he was genuinely saddened by her death.
No one's watching BONES? Tempy's dad on trial?
I think I've grown to love this show, which I didn't think was possible when it first aired (it seemed to lightweight).
