Yeah, it was dark. Had me thinking - between this and NCIS and the weirdness of NUmb3rs - that something is up with many of the ABC shows.
But, I would hope that there will be consequences on this show.
ETA: and when I say "ABC" I mean - CBS.
Just keep walking, preacher-man.

Numb3rs was dark and Medium was pitch black. It was a pretty depressing combo. I'd think there'd at least be some repercussions in Allyson's relationship with Lee. Also, what was Lee doing with his gun at the end? I couldn't tell if he was putting the safety on or off.

Well, he was going to arrest the woman who murdered his brother - I imagine he was taking the safety off. (Maybe he was going to finish the job if she didn't. . . )

But that was after he called Allyson to say that they were too late to save his brother, but they had his killer.

That's true - so he was going to arrest her and expecting some trouble.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Didn't Allyson call him?

Sure, they're brothers, but are they BROTHERS?
You know, I think they are. They haven't been tested to the point where they would know for sure, but somehow I do think so. Even though they are the opposite of the Winchesters, with their separate childhoods and the easy relationship with their father and still living in (or at least hanging out at a lot) the family home. Still, saving people, hunting...bad guys.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I dunno, -t. I think the Eppes brothers are sane. Great brothers, great dynamics, but healthy.
I was just finishing up Firefly. That's Winchester-like. Those kids ain't right.
Power to the Eppeses for *not* being like the Winchesters, and power to Papa Eppes in particular for making that possible.

Ah, I see what you're saying, now. And that sounds about right.

Don might take a bullet for Charlie, but I don't think he'd die with Charlie rather than let Charlie die alone, which is one of my differentiators.
