Epic, I know, right?? It totally bugged! I kept saying "they should know better, they film in LA!"

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
All the CSI shows make me want to strangle the characters
On the whole, they don't write them particularly likably, but they don't fit the tortured past stereotype you complain about either. That's why I cited SVU and CI--it's Olivia Benson and Goren to a tee. Most of the other procedurals I watch vary from not-character-intensive (the CSIs, which are also pretty crap) to ones with characters who might have tortured pasts, but hardly carry it around as much as say, Gibbs does. Though I'd love to see him crossed over with Hotch from CM. At least one of them is totally in the clear for avenging his wife's death. But he was a bitter SOB before that even happened.

So I'm rewatching Freaks and Geeks, and OMG... Sam Weir is Sweets! The cast of F&G just astounds me!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I KNOW, right? F&G was so amazingly cast.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Just saw the "social networking will kill you" episode of Criminal Minds. Am now freaked out.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Zen, didn't you get the memo that we're all ax murderers?
