The Great Writer's Purge after S4 did this show no favors. They lost some of their best and most consistent writers, and then CBS/ABC Studios threw a cruise ship full of money to Chris Mundy to helm the spinoff. We see how well that worked out. He's out of a job, and the mothership is floundering.
I miss how smart this show used to be.
Kinda makes me glad I can't see it anymore. It doesn't sound like the show I fell for anymore.
I don't know why the unsub focus doesn't bother me like it did last season. It is possible I'm just generally more detached. But last year I hated it pretty much every time. This season I don't notice there was an unsub focus until someone mentions it.
Ah Castle. I can't remember if it was Ryan or Esposito (I'm guessing Ryan, though): "Mom and dad are fighting!"
I think it was Esposito. Ryan wanted to know who was winning.
Last night's H5O had great Danny/Steve bitchin':
"You need help!! I will pay for it!!!
(Edit to change "therapy" to "help," which is even better!)
I love Scott Caan's delivery.
The delivery of "This could have been avoided" was
perfect.
Caan was on fire this episode.
