I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Life, enjoyed it and I find that I'm more interested in the conspiracy and Crews' psychology and his interactions with the people in his life, but I'm noticing that the MotW are ending with "very special" moments where the character (the husband this week, the little sister last week) suddenly change character, do an about-face, and pretty much thank Crews for giving them the strength to tell the truth. Ugh.

Things I liked lots and lots in no particular order: -Charlie kissing his wife. And she kissed back. The fact that he still loves her kinda surprised me. I had just pegged him as [not so] secretly bitter towards her. (I also loved his response to her "What do you want?")

-The scene with the attornery where they are say everything but.

-The look on his face when Ted was putting up the fence, and Ted finally getting it, and even after the fence-idea is nixed, Crews still looks like he's going to cry.

-How f***ing scary Crews became when he pulled out his own knife.

-New car!

Another weird thing I noticed is that this show (at least this episode in particular) doesn't have buttons to close out a scene. TV's gotten me so trained, so the absence of a witty remark or gesture (I'm looking at you, David Caruso, and I have a feeling Damian Lewis was as well.)

A witty remark or gesture to end the scene, you mean?

I'm just enjoying it and it's not the motw, it is the interactions between Crews and the people in his life. I was thinking in that scene where his attorney shows up at the station that he just spent 15 years surrounded by men and now, 2 out of 3 of the most important people in his life are women.

Bones:

I loved Angela's wasp. And the hypnotherapist. I know I've seen her before, but I can't remember where. And Vicky Nelson, all gussied up for pony play! I'll bet Henry would love to see her dressed like that. The older I get, the more incestuous weekly television gets.

House: I'm sorry to say "I told you so."

Do you think House was telling the truth? His little hem-haw with Wilson made me wonder. Although, you would think after two previous near death experiences he wouldn't need to do it a third time to make up his mind. Third time the charm? But then, why would he lie to a dead man if he did have some sort of epiphany? Gah! Evertime I think there going to give House a chewie center to go with the crunchy shell, they pull a bait and switch on me and give me hoarhound candy, hard and bitter.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Bones - the hypnotherapist is (or was) married to Tim Reid and on a couple of shows with him, I think.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I am concerned about next week's House.

I liked the choice that Laurie/the director/the editor made on the "I Love You" line.

So, now we're down to the 5 men, Evil Bitch (or whatever her name is), and Woman Who Killed the Guy AND HIS DOG, I think.

Were you able to get a good look at the Survivors? I thought he fired all the men, so I was confused to see who was there and didn't think to get a better look.

Yes, Wilson deserves a sincere "I love you", especially for the gift of painkillers.

I'm very curious about the ghosts.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I thought he had a line to LWKTPAHD that said that he fired all her teammates.
