I'm okay with the sidekick, but he is distractingly Eric Dane. His looks and vocal inflections are so similar, I had to check imdb to see if they were siblings. No, but wow. They sure could play them on tv.

I liked the detective calling Dana the Smocked Crusader.

I am worried about the inevitable "sexual tension"

Oh boy, I sure hope it does not go that way. I like sexual tension as much as the next guy, but I don't get any chemistry off the two of them at all.

Let the lead character have some dignity!

I do like Dana Delany's acerbic delivery. She plays jaded well.

eta: Aw. I hadn't seen the cake scene yet. That was nice.

"Oh no! Has falling sky liquid once again caused you the sadness?" -Starfire

I liked it and will probably continue watching it. Every time I see Dana Delany, it just makes me sad that China Beach isn't out on DVD though.

Seriously.

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

What's keeping it off DVD?

Dear Criminal Minds: Still too much unsub. We don't care about them.

p.s. - Frankie Muniz' hallucinations were better.

I agree.

I'm sure that some idiot producer said "we need to switch it up, concentrate on the unsubs, they're bored with just seeing the team all of the time. They liked the Alex O'Laughlin ep and the Frankie Muniz ep, so let's do more of that!"

Jackhole, we liked it because it was different.
