The Wilshire Community station is located in Mid-City, but the boundaries include the neighborhood known as Mid-Wilshire. In theory (based on DOT signage) the Olympic Community station is also located in Mid-City, as a Mid-City resident though, I think of that area as more Pico Union/Midtown. I think the area you are thinking of as Mid-Wilshire is actually Wilshire Center, which I'm pretty sure is in the Olympic station borders. I live in Mid-City, just south of Mid-Wilshire, and probably spend at least 10 hours a month at the Wilshire station, so I am familiar with the area and where the police station is located. I am not as familiar with the crime stats for the Olympic division, but I know enough to know they are not constantly getting into shoot outs and transporting serial killers either. There are really not a lot of police involved shoot outs in LA as a whole. I believe you are correct that the community served by Wilshire is one of the most diverse in LA, but the census is coming up so those stats may change.

I realize it is called The Rookie and the premise is that he's the focus, but it's still absurd. The Resident, is an example of a show with a similar title but has managed to keep the focus as more of an ensemble -- not that that show doesn't have its own problems. It's possible that my problem is I'm watching a bunch of shitty TV shows and expecting too much of them and I need to rethink my viewing habits. Hell, I'll even upgrade it to probable.

I assume he's been stalking various cops that are in the proximity of the Detective from Lost, trying to pick the easiest victim. So he wasn't just at the bar, he was there because they were. One thing I know from TV is that a lot of serial killers are super good at stalking. As to why the cops didn't notice him stalking, they never seem super bright on this show, and the writing needed them to not notice.

As soon as they said the name of the accomplice and went to his house I said "That's not his real name. It's someone they killed and took the identity of and the real accomplice is the guy from the bar." This happens every week and on the occasion that I'm at my mom's house watching with her she accuses me of having already seen the episode. And it's not that I'm brilliant, it's that I've seen all the same shows the writers have, with a side of this show being predictable as hell thrown in. I'm also starting to get outraged every week that Nolan is in the center of it all every time something goes down. LAPD has 10,103 sworn officers, but they rely on their 45 year old rookie for everything. And said rookie is always at the elbow of the Watch Commander. I'm assuming the "Mid-Wilshire" station is supposed to be the Wilshire Community station based on name, but IDK since they've been shown in Hollywood and Downtown and who knows where else, but Hollywood and Downtown aren't even the same bureaus so a single Basic Car wouldn't cover both (LAPD has a neighborhood based approach called the Basic Car Plan so the same officers are always in the same neighborhood and get to know the residents and the community and the problems that face that community). Anyway, most of the crime at Wilshire is burglary/theft from motor vehicles and home break-ins. There have been ~10 shootings with victims in the division this year -- none resulting in shoot-outs. So I get kind of annoyed with all the gun fights Nolan gets into too. I realize they need action to make the show interesting, but man does it make me miss Southland. I also think they could draw entertainment from the real types of calls that go on -- there's constantly crazy nonsense involving machetes, axes, and scooters. I watch this show to turn off my brain and have fun, but it's getting to where it's too dumb for me to do that since it is making me mad. I'm not a cop, but I do occasionally go to the community advisement board meetings for Mid-Wilshire and keep on top of the types of crimes going on in the area as a concerned citizen and took the 5 minutes needed to better understand LAPD's method of policing, unlike the writers. I don't hate the show, but I think I like it less than it agitates me, so the balance is not in its favor. I was happy to see Annie Wersching. This show does seem to pull decent guests stars. A large portion have also been on Castle though, so that might explain that. Anyway, I'm not sure I'm going to remember to tune back in in Feb.

I heard an ad for a Liftique sales seminar and guess who the "celebrity" is that's supposed to be getting the asses in the seats? None other than Vicki. Like she should be the poster child for any cosmetic procedure. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/newest-non-surgical-advances-for-tighter-brighter-smoother-glowing-skin-tickets-82301651455?aff=LiftiqueWebSite

The first two episodes I was annoyed with how much time was spent on the asshole son, but I'm all in on watching him be lonely and not fit in with anyone at college. And honestly, I'd rather spend time on that than on watching her rub another one out on the kitchen floor.

Hahaha! You do know what show this is, right? There's a less than zero chance of anything being portrayed well.

Not only that, but according to my extensive research (a single google search and then looking at a chart in, but not reading, the only article I clicked on) it is permissible to disclose information that would otherwise be protected by HIPAA in cases where public safety is in danger are you are reporting to the appropriate authorities. Devon's argument wasn't even really that it was wrong, it was that people wouldn't feel safe seeking medical treatment if they feared repercussions from reporting -- because lord knows educated middle aged white guys in the middle class are constantly living in fear of the authorities. I was already starting to dislike Devon when they made his fiancee who was previously cool a spoiled flake to justify his straying, but it seems like the writers have gone out of their way to make him insufferable. I guess Conrad has to have an enemy and it isn't Bell anymore since they've completely altered his character too, so this is where we're at.

I am so sick of Devon's sanctimonious ass. I am tired of Morris Chestnut being an ass (I can't think of the character's name). Mina's friend was a selfish asshole trying to guilt Mina into taking responsibility that she didn't want to take on. Did this friend get pregnant knowing she was possibly dying because the cancer treatment might destroy her fertility so this was her only chance, or was that some other shitty show I watch? I think I watch too many shitty medical dramas because they are getting confused in my head. Next week's episode is up on Hulu. Not sure if that's a mistake or not.

So it looks like Martin might have taken the wrong kid camping.

To be fair, chronic pain can make you an asshole. I didn't realize how cranky my pain was making me until it was gone. So having been in that boat, I just wrote Bloom's behavior off as the pain talking. But then again, it's Bloom, so 🤷‍♀️ Especially since his husband seems to be at home with the kids more than Iggy. I really cannot stand Iggy. I realize he's supposed to be this nice caring guy, but he just annoys the fuck out of me. So needless to say, I was not moved at the end when he was online shopping for a little refugee baby of his own.

Good point

Besides the tradition part, they are in LA. I own like 3 long sleeved shirts total. It's going to be in the 80s this week. Wearing that long sleeved uniform shirt would be hot. Even though the older cop was encouraging West to lie, could he really and get away with it? Wouldn't his body cam footage show he wasn't even close enough to the guy to see him toss his gun when the guy was in the vicinity of where the kid picked the gun up?

I didn't think Emily was more than cute on the show, but she has dark hair now and I think it really suits her.

Stephanie has such a kind heart and delicate soul. She breaks my heart.

I irrationally dislike her so much, that I was thinking "the baby wasn't even home all day and she can't even get up when it cries? It's his turn even though he's been at work? What has she been doing all day?" and then I realized she was dead. Kind of like on Ray Donovan when Abby finally died and she was on the screen 10x as much for flash backs and hallucinations as Ray and the family dealt with it. It was a great lesson in be careful what you wish for.

She doesn't have a driver license and can't afford an Uber. Kelly was right that Gina isn't accomplished, she was just wrong about herself being accomplished. What has Gina done besides temporarily hitching her wagon to a guy that had a high paying job and popping out a few screaming crotch goblins and being a potato faced whiner and catty back stabber?

I'm sorry you went through this. I doesn't sound like you use it as a constant excuse for bad behavior or weaponize it though. LeeAnn does. It isn't just one incident with her, it is nonstop. If Brandi doesn't want people calling her kid names, maybe she shouldn't have broken the seal by calling her a little bitch and was it an asshole(?) on TV. I do not feel bad at all saying that Brandi's kids are the absolute fucking worst and that Brandi needs to work on her parenting. I'm just saying it here though. I am not seeking Brandi out and sending her messages about it. I was wondering if it could be a cultural thing with Kary. She's not from the US and we are much more sensitive and PC about things than most of the world. Also her wording might not have been the best because she's not a native speaker.

I think there's always an instance of it happening on BD and BDM. I can only think of BD instances off the top of my head though, so maybe they don't do it on Med? There's been Ashton as mentioned, Josiah had to wear that gold shit, didn't Bruno have to be the almost nude sushi serving platter once? The most demeaning thing I can think of for Med right now are when there was that country themed party with the hay and the girls wore daisy dukes and tied up shirts. I'm so confused because my belief that it happens every season on BD and BDM is strong.

This got me thinking, has anyone had to dress up in a demeaning, inappropriate, or otherwise embarrassing costume this season? I'm pretty sure you can easily get flowers in the Med, even in October. It might be hard to get specific flowers, but does anyone think that Hannah really cares if they are Sweet Akito Roses vs Titanic Light Pink Roses?

There's at least one person with a medical license involved as she mentioned medication and a life coach cannot prescribe antidepressants. Leeanne was aggressive all day and capped it off by wielding her history and threat of suicide as a weapon. If I recall correctly, this is not new behavior for her and there are police reports from her using suicide threats this way in the past. That dinner looked fabulous. It was all things I love. Mole pablano and it looked like they had calabacitas as a side and a salad with beets. It's like she took a list of my favorites. Of course Leeanne was a pill during it and said she wouldn't be eating the salad because she didn't want to puke.

Brandi's kids are still the absolute fucking worst. You'd think she'd have learned to at least keep them off TV by now, because I'm assuming doing some parenting and improving their behavior is off the table.

Season 2 relied too much on everyone being giant dicks for me.

There was way too much jumping around in the timeline this episode.

She's since gone brunette and I think it suits her.
