It’s a perfectly adequate procedural, and it takes place after Silence of the Lambs but before Hannibal.
The lack of social distancing in this week’s 911 is really annoying me. Double dating during the pandemic?

Wait, let me guess—the idiot protagonist character who started the series off as a probie bringing a fwb to the firehouse roof to bang during his first week on the job was involved?
It takes a lot to put me off a series with Angela Bassett as one of the main characters, but he managed it. (I do like the spinoff, though.)

Ghost Whisperer* actually made me cry a few weeks back. The situations are ridic but they can be pretty effective on characterization.
- The actress - I'm terrible with actor names so we generally just shorthand as whatever show we just watched them in.

No, Bucky has done a lot of growing up in the past few years, but he was on a double date with a friend in an apartment, AB's character went to her daughter's work (at the call center) just to say hi and interacted with several people without masks, and another character went on a date with a woman he's been seeing and then went home to his disabled son.

There's actually been very little mention of Lecter. He gets brought up at one point by her DoJ-appointed therapist, but his name is never mentioned.
the ongoing plot thread seems to be about some kind of corporate conspiracy, with a thematic thread of "things are not as they seem".

Head's up, Justified fans. They're making another Elmore Leonard book into a tv series. According to the article:
The new series will feature Graham Yost, who created "Justified," as an executive producer, plus many other writers and producers from the previous show. Peter Leonard, the novelist's son, also will be an executive producer.

I love Elmore Leonard, but for me, the magic of Justified was Timothy Olyphant (and the chemistry with Walter Goggins). But, I will definitely give it a shot. Which book?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Timothy Olyphant and his sloungy ways, wicked wit, sexay eyes and long loooooooong legs. Not that I’m partial or anything.

What is even happening?
I believe it's City Primeval: High Noon in Detroit.
Yes.
The Deadline article on this says, "City Primeval does not feature [Raylan] but the idea is for the TV adaptation to incorporate him, with Olyphant potentially reprising his role."
