I think that they ramped up the sexual tension between her and Charlie too quickly, and now they're trying to backtrack.

I think that they ramped up the sexual tension between her and Charlie too quickly

Yeah, I was surprised they went there so fast (even though the actual scene was hot like burning). I almost figured the actress wasn't coming back -- maybe the whole thing's been uncertain between the strike and the actress' other committments?

De-lurking (in the midst of being psycho busy) because I needed to vent...

I watched CRiminal Minds my brother and FSIL are in town and we ended up watching it together. As soon as Smokin' hot guy was interested in Garcia I said I hoped that it didn't turn out bad because the only time a hot guy is interested in someone who looks like Garcia he wants to use/hurt her. Because shows always go there, the only exception I can think of is China Beach when whathisname fell for Ricki Lake's character.

Thank you! I had a very similar rant last night - or wait, is yours merely an observation rather than a rant? - anyway. I figured there'd be something up when Smokin' Hot Graham paid that much attention to a girl built that much like me. Then when she brought it up with Morgan and he was such an ass, I thought maybe they would be doing something other than the obvious Hottie-Up-to-Something, Fat-Girl-Desperate-for-Hottie's-Attentions-Gets-Hurt Crap. But no. (And even on China Beach, Holly had a crush on Boonie for a loooong time before he returned the affection. Because OBVIOUSLY, no regular guy would just, y'know, be attracted to a heavy girl. Ugh).

I ended up getting in an argument with my brother because he didn't believe that I could have guessed that Hottie would have turned out bad just from him being interested in Garcia, I had to have gotten it all from the foreshadowing. It kinda ruined the evening because once again my brother can't like I actually do know what I'm talking about and has to contradict me. I wanted to argue that I know television so I do know what I'm talking about, but it felt lame and so I dropped.

Ohmigosh, someone's cloned my brother and stuck you with him!? I'm so sorry. (Suddenly very glad I don't watch much TV with my brother. **shudder** ).

Waves at Epic's drive-by post

Waves back at Frank.

While looking in the rearview, rushing to get back to doing not only my job, but also covering for the guy who's out with a hurt back.

See, I liked her back when they were doing the ust-y "we lurve each other but can't admit it even as we try to suss out how the other feels, although it doesn't matter because it can never BEEEEEEeee".

When they pulled the Cudahy storyline of "I can't/won't have you, Charlie, and since you won't have an affair with me, I'm gonna find some other criminal to save and possibly mack on" they lost me.

After Charlie realizes Ted cleaned out the closet, just as the scene ends, Charlie looks over at the chair. What was that about? It lead into Charlie going back to the empty house and making a Farthingale Conspiracy Wall. I was thinking maybe that chair faced the closet, but it didn't seem like it was in the right spot (and Charlie stands in front of his wall). It's not a big deal, but the segue didn't make sense to me.

I didn't get confused by that because I was so distracted to discover that Charlie had a chair.

bwa!

if LT was a follower of the minor league baseball teams

I just assumed someone in the group said "what frelling teams belong to these?" and they then did a quick search on the net to find out. I mean, I pay attention to minor league baseball, but the only minor league caps I can recognize at a glance are the PawSox and the Durham Bulls.

Apparently Life actually managed to pick up 11% more viewers than Bionic Woman last night. I think that's good news. I hope it's good news. NO TAKING AWAY MY SHOW.
