Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

They even have sleepovers. The Denny/Alan relationship is great, one of the best parts of the show.

I remember Starsky and Hutch and a number of articles that came out that were enthralled at an emotional relationship between guys being a major point of the show, as opposed to the stoic friendship thing that had been between the partners on various crime shows before hten.

God, Brenda killed me this week on "The Closer." Fritz deserves better. I thought they were a great couple with her being extremely neurotic, but I am not so sure any more. He is looking like kind of a doormat that will put up with anything and she needs to learn how to be in a relationship.

I don't want them to break up and then she gets with JK Simmons. I just think that would.not.be.good. I fear for this result.

I hope JK Simmons gets with someone, because I find his voice incredibly sexy. But no, not with Brenda.

I think that the fans would revolt. We all like Fritz. I like Pope as her boss but not as her lover

Nods. Violently.

What y'all said. I think there will be definite repercussions from this week's abuse of trust - but they need to Pull Through and Be Better People on the Other Side of This Experience!
