However, the rather heavy-handed team stuff seemed shoehorned into the ep, although I liked each of the elements on its own. They're still trying to find the right groove, which is sad from a show that's in its seventh season, and just shows how much of an upheaval firing AJ and Paget was last season, and then losing Ed Bernero due to all the screwing around by TPTB at the network.

I think it has been broken too much to be put back together for me. Which is sad. I loved the team, I loved their interactions. But they broke them too far and they don't seem to have the behind the scenes talent to put them back together convincingly enough for me.

This season's been disapponting so far, but I plan to stick with it until either they get their act(s) together, or I just burn out on them.

I'm burning out. I totally was okay with it being all fractured and dealing with anger and betrayal at the beginning. But then there was a magic dinner party and everything is fine?

And I was excited at the start of the season. I love having all of the team together and the actors seem to be so happy. But I am burning out.

I am too. I am coming to realize that TV is almost work for me. I need to cut down. I have 6 eps of True Blood on my Tivo, and no real desire to watch them. I might just forward through for scenes with Lafayette or shirtless Alcide or Eric.

Vortex,

I don't know what to tell you about TB. I watch the show out of inertia, but you might want to just hold on to those eps until next summer. Nothing pressing about watching them now. I didn't like the season finale.

Re: CM, I think maybe I will watch from where I started, which is this season, and that way I won't know the good and bad of what's been before. Then, when it ends, I'll have the first six(?) seasons ahead of me.

CSI is so enjoyable right now. I love the actress who played Vinnie's wife/the killer.

Do we talk about Psych in here?

That's a really good idea!

I think Psych goes in the cable thread.

I really am enjoying csi this season.

I am almost caught up on Prime Suspect - finally watched last week's episode: that was a good one.

And have this week's episode for tonight.

I really enjoyed this week's CSI, too. It's always good when Greg gets to geek out over Vegas mob history, and Russell saying, "I shot Greg" to the new ballistics person was hilarious.

That's a really good idea!

Thank you! I figured so, after the talk I've heard randomly over the past couple of years, and then specifically in here.

I think Psych goes in the cable thread.

Thanks, LeN.

Is anyone watching NCIS?
