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]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

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

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

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.

But it is NAFDA -- doesn't that mean fair game? Anyway, it needs to go elsewhere, and I can't imagine anyone not watching the show right now would care about what's already been posted.

Anyway, I love Jeff Goldblum! I forgot he was going to be on my TV!! In a procedural!

Being NAFDA should be for the shows on topic, otherwise every NAFDA TV thread is a general thread, which we know not to be true. That might need clarification.

Not a procedural. C'mon, folks, let's pick this up somewhere else.

Interesting House. Chase was even more of an idiot than usual with the implant, though. Also, no way can you just add an implant into a brain surgery that you weren't planning it for. Way more prep is needed.

And, I really don't think it's possible to pull out a cochlear implant like that. The part on the outside is attached by a magnet to a part under the skin. If you pull that off, not much happens -- people take them off all the time for swimming and showering and stuff. I'm not sure what you could do that would cause that much blood, other than tearing out the stitches, but that wouldn't actually damage the implant. And you generally can't turn it on until a few weeks after the surgery, anyway, so he wouldn't have woken up hearing like he did.

Oh! And he probably wouldn't have to change schools, and he probably would have known that. After getting an implant, people need a whole lot of speech and auditory therapy -- which they frequently get at a school for the deaf. And I'd bet that most deaf schools now have at least a few kids who have implants -- depending on a whole bunch of factors, even for kids who get the implants as babies, a deaf school is sometimes a better environment than mainstreaming.
