Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

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

And that's it for the season of The Closer, until the summer. That was barely anything. Four episodes? Feels barely worth coming back for.

The tension about the assault was pretty much not there, since Brenda has to be investigating a murder, so it had to be hinky.

Was it four? I think I may have missed one.

ETA: I also thought the scheduling was weird. I'm guessing they just brought it back to help launch that aging man show.

It was just three. And it was weird.

The really stressful one with the rape, then the one that made light of MTF transexuality, and this off-format one. I figured I must have been forgetting a normal one. How disappointing. Is it really a good lead in for the show?

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

Launching that show when it's up against Monday Night Football seemed like kind of an odd choice itself.

yeah, let's see if she makes it to the end of this season. My magic 8 ball is not throwing up good messages.

Yeah--I figure he's a sure thing for #21, her, a bit less so.

Man, if she doesn't make it, wouldn't it be interesting if they promoted one of the detectives to her rank? But I guess neither of the current featured detectives have been on the show long enough. (But have they been cops long enough?)
