Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Seriously, I could maybe (MAYBE) tell you a few to skip....

Nah. I trust you. If I need to watch all of them, I will sit down and watch all of them. I'm sure it will be a terribly dreadful experience, what with the lack of teh pretty on-screen. Couple that with all of the shiny, happy people... oh wait. That's Bizarro-world CM, where they carry PEZ dispensers instead of guns.

“Not dead yet!”

edit: Barb, I watched it. The writers don't believe in anyone being happy, do they? Good stuff, but it doesn't look like anyone gets a break, ever.

I know, but it's SOOOO gut-wrenching in a good way. (I love Emily, she's my girl.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well, like you maybe don't care quite as much about Season 1, since two of the characters are gone now, so what do you care about what's his name's Big Story, unless you especially like Mandy Patinkin...

“Not dead yet!”

Yeah, but tangled up in Jason's story is Frank (Keith Carradine) another classic crazy-cakes serial killer.

Yeah, that's good stuff. I was just trying to help!

Not a huge fan of Gideon (or Patinkin in anything other than TPB), but the Frank two-fer was great! Saw that this week.

I've actually seen a good portion of S1 and 2, since that's where A&E has been since I've started paying attention. Prentiss is miles above Elle.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I think CM got significantly better in season 3. Not only was it free of Gideon, who was an unpleasant character who took up way too much screen time, but the writing seems tighter and the production more sophisticated.

Flashpoint was excellent tonight.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I'm seeing CM the way I first saw SG-1, all out of order. Except for Patinkin and the other guy I have no idea what season I'm watching.

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

Rossi and Prentiss are a huge bonus from Gideon and Elle. (Though the first Elle episode I saw was when she was going off the rails, so I might not have given her a chance. Emily still kicks her ass.)

The Luke Perry one is amazing, and yeah, when they bring in a guest star they really work it.odd how unusual that is.

One of the capital C creepiest eps is set in my mom's home town. Ew.

Quester, it took me a long time to get that figured out too.
