Well, I like McGee geeking out over the high tech stuff!

Right, I liked the usual NCIS characters in it, but I can't see myself turning in each week for the new characters that were introduced.

I loved having Amber on House! I hope they figure out a way to keep her around over more than 1 or 2 episodes. First, the actor's terrific in the part, second, it takes some pressure off Hugh Laurie in that it spreads around the lines that have to be memorized. Good move, plugging a bluetooth device into his ear to cover up that he's talking to himself. Heh.

Not yet, we'll see if I feel more well-disposed to them next week. I just don't like my guys getting less screen time than I feel they deserve. I'm sitting here wondering why the heck Gibbs and McGee had to go to San Diego when they're not doing anything there.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

Is House more than a little insane or does he just have an over-developed guilt complex and a very active mental life?

I think crazy, maybe from too many drugs. The Girl thinks early-onset Alzheimers. (She googled the symptoms to prove her theory to me. Nice.)

'House' nearly lost me forever with their approach to the deaf kid's story. They weren't nearly condemning enough of House's actions (I would have sued him for everything he had, personally). They sort of won me back by the end. But not entirely.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Wait, did another show have a storyline where a doctor self-righteously decides a deaf kid should have one of those cochlear implants that don't actually tend to work very well over the objections of a parent?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Sounds like ER season 4 to me, but I could be wrong.

Oh, and apparently - only one pony in L.A. - I swear the pony in the Mentalist was the same one in Reaper.

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

How annoying would it be to actually get a pony for your birthday? Especially one that might have just crapped in your office?
