I thought the first ep was Blucas' last. I'm sure he doesn't last past 2. John Stamos also settles in and becomes more likable - unless that's just my perception once his blond partner (memfault - guy who people were excited about when he came on Heroes) starts coming around twirling his metaphorical moustache every time he's on the screen. TK does at least change a bit - though it's more that he's making different types of questionable choices, not that he finally starts looking before he leaps.
I'd say the first couple/few episodes are less than awesome, they're still trying to find their tone, plus things have to fall into shape for them to get to the new season structure, but it's gotten at least interesting. I'm not in love with the Nico/FBI stuff, but like I said, finally a little bit of Nico/Dani.
I think the TK arc this season is pretty interesting, if problematic here and there.
I'd say it gets interesting (like last ep!), but he definitely still makes questionable choices and early in the season he definitely still seems spoiled and immature.

I was only halfway through the first episode when I typed my question. You're right, he says his good-byes at the end.
There were WAY too many dogs being threatened on tonight's Rizzoli & Isles. (Yeah, I'm one of those people -- I don't particularly care how many actors get make-believe threatened; just don't be implying violence towards the animals. Particularly towards the canine variety.)
And you all have heard the sad news that Lee Thompson Young (aka Detective Frost) committed suicide on Monday, right? It was kind of creepy watching the episode knowing that.
LTY was discussed in Natter. It's why I haven't made a move to watch R&I yet.
I think that TK is much better this year than before--he was remarkably immature before. Now he's sometimes immature, but I don't DO NOT NOT NOT understand much about relationship forgiveness.
I thought it was sad that they seemed to be replacing Blucas with Stamos, and then switching out the whole team for the V3 supporting staff, but I don't see how Stamos is going to be here next season, so maybe that's their model now.
I also didn't think of it as a procedural.
No, it's clearly Cable Drama.
Sorry, my fault. I don't know what I was thinking.
Most recent Perception:
Either they just pissed all over Kate's character as portrayed up to now OR Daniel was sitting alone in his home hallucinating this whole episode. I'm not sure which I like less. I hope next episode has a third explanation to surprise me with.
Er to be clear, I'm thinking specifically of the scene in the bar. Unredeemable Creep has just handed her, and her ex their heads in a legal battle. She follows him to a bar, ruins his date, warns him she is going to "bring him down" and does not expect to hear from his lawyers? The detective who is carefully polite or rude to suspects and witnesses to elicit the reactions she wants suddenly loses all control? Once she is suspended, using her time off to get something on the guy I can believe. And the murder may well have circumstances. But the bar confrontation. Asolutely nothing in previous episodes prepares us for her to act like that.
