In the inevitable circumstance when Stokes sleeps with someone other than his wife, I hope he and his wife are divorced or formally split before this occurs.
I wouldn't think so. Part of what I like is that he has a supportive wife that gets him.
I'm not pleased with the introduction of a cranky boss. I liked the idea that Burke was in charge and we wouldn't have to go through this song and dance every week @@
From the previews, looks like they've replaced Burke's old junior agent with the new one from this week. I'm not pleased, I liked that we wouldn't have to deal with the stupid banter/tension between Caffrey and the junior agent, but it looks like that cliche is back. Plus, we lost a two minorities - a black character and a lesbian character.

I like the supportive wife, but there aren't too many shows where a husband-wife relationship is intact. Maybe this survives? By 2nd or 3rd season, I'm betting not.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You're very jaded, LeNub. I hope this show keeps DeKey's character (what's his name, again?) pretty much on the straight and narrow, and Neal a romantic piner for a while,

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
ha! yes I am. I get it honestly.

Just watched Friday's Numb3rs. I'm not sure that I like this "quirky guest professor of the week" thing. On the other hand, it's more realistic for them to call on people with various types of expertise instead of Charlie, Larry and Amita having all of the scientific knowledge in the world.

It's the quirky part that bothers me, more than their cost-cutting rotation. Are Charlie and Amita really that exceptional, that they can pass for normal?
But even worse was the invisible cellphone Pentagon guy. That was way too precious.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
A) I miss Larry. I always miss Larry when he's gone.
B) Seriously. And I think if invisible cellphone guy had been played with a touch more menace and a touch less whimsy it would have come off with the right panache. But as it was, definitely too precious.

The status is NOT quo.

Yes, this. And also what Liese said. I adore Larry and miss him terribly, and invisible cellphone guy had me tilting my head sideways and muttering, "When did the writers decide what this show really needed was Colonel Flagg?"
