We're halfway through Bodyguard and enjoying it very much. It tends to keep you on the edge of your seat a lot, though, so be prepared for dramatic tension up the wazoo. Keely Hawes is always good and Richard Madden is surprisingly awesome.
Procedurals 1: Anything You Say Can and Will Be Used Against You.
This thread is for procedural TV, shows where the primary idea is to figure out the case. [NAFDA]
I have Procedural Problems: I'm watching last week's The Rookie, and am in the middle of reading an old Michael Connolly book, where they refer to Bosch (out of retirement) as "the oldest boot," and I swear to god, I just thought, "Oh yeah, Castle knows Connolly, right? Maybe that's where they got the idea."
EXCEPT SOME OF THOSE PEOPLE ARE FICTIONAL.
Ha!
Connally was a member of Castle's poker game.
We're all just figures in Tommy Westphall's snowglobe.
Connally was a member of Castle's poker game.
That's why I knew they know each other!
Is The Rookie any good? I haven't watched any episodes.
I like it! It's basically what you'd expect from a Nathan Fillion cop show on ABC, so better than NCIS but not as good as Homicide?
Whoa. I guess that is all one spectrum. Mind blown.
It took me a while to come up with the good end!
I somehow totally missed that Elementary had started up again, then noticed there was a new episode in my recorded tv! Yay for smart systems that record stuff for me.
Didn't know where they were going to go from the end of last season, and at the end of this episode still not sure!
First, Joan as a blonde! Well, it wouldn't be my choice, but it goes along with the notion of her unhappy life in London. Second, Kitty! Always a delight to see her and no matter the direction it takes I hope she stays involved. Third, Captain! Oh my, not cool.
The case of the week was well done and adequately twisty and turny. Near the end of the episode DH mentioned to me that I hadn't declared the culprit yet, and I realized I hadn't been trying to figure it out because there were so many other things to focus on. But not sure I would have figured it out even if I had been trying. Also, ouch. Acid not a fun thing at all.
Completely unspoiled speculation is that they are not going back to NY. I rather like the notion of the whole season staying on Baker Street so that may be skewing my speculation.
Also I like DCI Jones being a thorn in Joan's side.
So, now that I have projected that they stay in London we shall probably see them back in NY next time with some resolution to Sherlock's legal issues.
