Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I wish I could stand the show. Because I'd love to watch Hugh Laurie act every week.

I wonder if it comes from comedy training, because a good joke relies on double takes, and explaining it yanks most of the fun out of it.

Always Anti-fascist!

Maybe...the comedy is why we love him when he says horrible things.

Are we supposed to not notice that Sarah Shahi is pregnant?

She was suddenly HUGE. I wonder what the break in filming was between last week and this. I guess they'll have her sit for the rest of the pregnancy.

Or have Tidwell's baby.

Heh.

Art Crawl!!!

I think that the FBI thingy is how they're dealing with the pregnancy.

Both Life and Criminal Minds had poisoning hookers last night. Except Life's wasn't really a hooker, and damn were those guys cheap in comparison to the Texan femme fatale.

Toxic sex for hire in the nine o'clock hour. Wonder what Lie To Me was about.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I missed a lot of Criminal Minds but what I saw ... I was disappointed. Struck me as going for the sleazy and exploitative without much in the way of content. Is it sweeps time again?

Lie to Me wasn't on, there was two hours of Idol.

Take that as you will.

I think Criminal Minds ended well. They don't often show the unsub as anything approaching sympathetically broken. I got a woman who started with a mission to kill men she thought were assholes and then broke.

I know her being a nubile blonde had something to do with why Hotch held her hand as she died, but it worked for me, despite her still being villainous.
