It was somebody like Ray Romano. Very turn-offable.

It was somebody like Ray Romano.
Close, Brad Garret, Robert on ...Raymond
Brad Garrett? Okay, that's precisely why I turned it off. Can't stand.
No Disher this week. There haven't been many eps without him, have there?
He does usually show up, but maybe not when they are out of town. I can't remember. It seems odd to not have him in it at all.
The references to Julie made her sound a lot older than I thought she was, but maybe we haven't actually seen her for longer than I thought.
ita, did you say something about the seven-pointed sheriff's star? I got to wondering about it after counting points on badges on several shows recently and looked it up - apparently it's a kabbalistic sign used for protection from evil - the seven points correspond to the seven days of creation and probably other stuff - that somehow got more or less monopolized by sheriffs.
Sheriff Carter on Eureka wears one, but most of the other sheriffs I've noticed have six-pointed stars. I only started looking once I counted Colin's, though. Where else did you see it with seven points?
eta: The actress who plays Julie is eighteen, so I guess she could be that old. Older than I thought, too.
Tonight on Monk, and I think last week's Psych, though I'm not sure if that's what I was watching when I started counting. I'm pretty sure there's a seven-pointed star painted on the door of my local police station, also, I'll check next time I'm over there - it's got the closest no-fee ATM to me, so I'm there fairly often.
(eta: that is to say, last night's Monk that I watched tonight)
I could have sworn the one on Monk had 6 points. But I didn't count Psych.
When I image google sheriff's star it comes up with a bunch of five-pointed ones too, which I'm really sure I never see on TV.
I counted several times on Monk because it looked so much like it ought to be six-points. Which is what made me wonder about the seven-ness, it seems like it would be less natural to draw or design a mold for a seven-pointer when 5 and 6 pointed stars are so easy. But that might just be what I'm used to, I don't know.
I think the badge on Deadwood was also 7-pointed, because I know I have pondered this before but not quite enough to actually find anything out, and that seems like the context for my prior pondering.
From this pic it looks like Deadwood was a six pointer.
I guess I didn't count on Monk after all. I am of course blanking on the other shows I thought I counted on too.
Yup, looks like I am remembering that wrong. Might have been a previous season of Eureka that caught my eye.
Oh, hey, a 5-pointer on Lost: [link]
