It has a hard time slot. It's on Monday nights, against Castle and Hawaii Five-0. They've started rerunning episodes on Saturday nights, which is when I've been catching it. I like it, I don't love it.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Yeah, me too. I like Kathy Bates, but the show hasn't grabbed me. It's entertaining but I won't miss it if it goes away.

Very true. I've been watching it On Demand but now that Castle and H50 are on repeats - I can tivo it.

I'm surprised that they think that L&O:LA can do better in that timeslot.

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

I have to say that L&O:LA makes me roll my eyes less than Harry's Law. Kathy Bates can't save the preachiness for me.

NBC had a perfectly WONDERFUL Law and Order which they chose to cancel when it came back to life. They deserve what they're getting.

This, exactly. The eyerolling gets worse with each episode.

And it's awfully sanitized and pretty for something that's apparently supposed to be gritty.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

We were taken aback that on this week's CSI:Original Flavor, they had a long sequence at Nick's house, in the front yard with investigators and police cars and all sorts of hooha. About five seconds in, I said "Isn't that--?" and the DH stopped the TiVo for a better look at the street sign on the background. Apparently, Nick Stokes lives down the block from us in North Hollywood. Kind of a long commute to Las Vegas.

I realize that the DH and I may be the only people left who still watch CSI:Las Vegas, but we enjoyed it.

I still watch it, mostly for Laurence Fishburne and the medical examiner.
