Oh! Driving overnight. That makes it make a bit more sense.
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]
The Mentalist got a full season order.
And the press release says that it's the #1 new show, who knew?
Inara and Principal McHottie are on tonight's Numb3rs.
I would have really enjoyed tonights Life if it weren't for Tidwell's skeezy scenes with Dani. At least she called him on it this time.
Poor woobie Ted. At least the students didn't walk out on him because of his crimes. Is pass/fail really preferable?
Was totally not expecting the twist with Jack, but it makes a lot of what happened in the first season make more sense.
I so wanted to see Charlie tell Dani that her father was in trouble.
I keep thinking that I should like Numb3rs, but it just can't hold my attention when I try to watch it.
WTF is up with the Tidwell character. "Why doesn't anyone treat me like a commander?" Because you act like a greasy pervert! Jeez
No kidding!
Also: that p/f thing doesn't make sense. Don't most universities require actual grades?
Particularly for business degrees?
So thanks to tiggy, I'm 20 minutes into the first ep of the British Life on Mars.
... should I just delete the Season Pass for the American version on my Tivo now, then?

Probably.
so the p/f thing made no fucking sense. I think they just wanted a visual joke.
In reality it is this: p/f grades at my institution for grad classes don't count toward GPA in any meaningful way. So if students want to pad the gpa, they can take a p/f class or 2. His would be an elective anyway, so maybe the students felt the class wasn't worth it as an elective if it wasn't p/f.
Also (hating to bring reality into it): is he getting paid for this? We don't pay adjunct instructors unless they have minimum enrollment in the class. Based on that class enrollment, his course would be canceled.
