Spike ,'Conversations with Dead People'
This thread is for procedural TV, shows where the primary idea is to figure out the case. [NAFDA]
I'm torn. I was a big Rigsby/Van Pelt shipper, but I'm okay with the mandate that they can't date on the job. And I don't want them pining over their forbidden love. But I totally don't buy this new relationship, and am startled it's gotten to the point of wedding dresses.
But I don't want Van Pelt's judgment to be shown to be faulty, and Rigsby to be long-suffering and noble and right, even if they don't get back together.
Rigsby and Van Pelt have awesome chemistry. I want to seem them back together and working on the same team, but perhaps not as partners.
I liked the end of this week's Mentalist. I wish the show was always kind of weird and strange, rather than a straightforward procedural.
I seem to spend a lot of time wishing my procedurals weren't procedurals.
I think they're going to get close, but I somehow suspect that O'Laughlin is going to get cold feet.
As usual, I loved the exchange between Cho and Rigsby-- Wayne asking for Kimball's advice on whether or not he should tell Grace.
Can they be on the same team and in a relationship?
I really liked the end of The Mentalist. In fact, Jane was more human this week than recently. Using his perception not to wind people up, but to distract the dying guy from his pain. And as scared as he is of guns and death, he did him a solid there.
if they let crazyass Jayne work with them day in and day out, I think they can let the relationship fly.
I thought they were told explicitly to stop, though.

Yeah. Wasn't Lisbon pretending to have no knowledge of it, then Hightower laid down the law?
I like The Mentalist, without Jane.
So here's my point globally: it is against department policy for two members of the same division to have a romantic relationship. Fine. It is true Hightower laid down the boogie, and Lisbon didn't want to know about it before Hightower.
But there are so many other ways in which the division/department violates policy. I am not sure that the romantic relationship even approaches the chaos of Jane (I keep misspelling). Truth be told, they would have turned the whole place inside out after Red John killed half the division. The mere fact Jane works with them causes the division unnecessary risk - they are only on RJ's radar because of Jane.
