other characters aren't acknowledging missing people except for the cousin that didn't show up and the girl who was hanged.

Uncle Ripped-in-Half "sent" a text message to the groom saying he was shacked up with some woman and not to worry. Which puts a damper on my rogue alligator theory.

I can kind of see everyone just thinking that whoever is missing is just somewhere else and surely they will run into them again soon. The nonchalance about the traps is pretty strange, but I'm enjoying everyone acting suspicious all over the place and people getting killed when only we can see, so I'm okay with it.

Harper's Island still isn't a procedural, is it? Have we extended the "figure out the case" past an episode? While i understand it's a mystery, I didn't think it met the definition of the term as we were using it.

Well, the sheriff is now trying to figure out what is going on. It actually may become a procedural in spite of itself. It would help if they start acknowledging the murders.

No, I guess it isn't a procedural. Should all that be whitefonted, or should we just not continue the off-topic in here?

On topic: Lie to Me: I think my favorite part of this show is the blog by the guy that Lightman is based on [link] .

We should move the discussion to Natter, ideally.

too bad! I'll miss the discussion here. Carry on!

No, right, sorry, I meant do we move the discussion or move the discussion and also wf previous discussion. That's usual for off-topic but aired on TV stuff, right, whitefont?

I don't think it needs to be whitefonted, but HI is definitely not a procedural. FTR.

I think whitefonting is a good idea if only to reinforce that we need to stop picking up the conversation here.

Either the conversation needs to stop, or it needs to be made less visible. Because here is not the right place, and here is not a general TV thread.
