    Nell bugs. I wish she had taken 10 seconds to put on some tactical pants instead of keeping extra ammo in her fanny pack. (Yes, i know she wasn't really carrying a fanny pack, but she might as well have been.

    Since Nell has always dressed appropriately in the field before, I'm chalking this up to just *how urgent* this was that she didn't change.

    Such a great yet heart rending episode.

    Good episode.  Hard to go wrong with a nice, tense, everyone-sneaking-around-and-outwitting-the-bad-guys-one-by-one plot.   I get that Sam didn't want to butcher Tahir in front of his son, but letting him live just so he could administer a nice long beatdown seems a pretty big mistake in retrospect.  Should have shot him, or let Callen shoot him, right when they found him.   

    Boy did you call it being a mistake to leave Tahir alive!

    S06.E05: Episode 5

    in Call The Midwife

    I think they were using "it's" in terms of the institution, not the residents. I'm not trying to be snarky and I'm genuinely confused: how is "it's" offensive in that context? I know not to call a person that but an institution?

    I think that was a good proposal. Felt very real for them. And about the only light spot in the whole episode. Loved Kensi oh-so-casually detonating that flash bang, just to get her hands on the ring!

    wow I thought that was the best episode in a long while,

    I couldn't catch what Sister MJ said when her and Phylis were winding the wool, something like she would rather "pound the treadmill in the workout and......"

    Baby Susan is sooo cute

    Did we know she was a vegetarian?  Didn't she start by making a comment about Tom eating meat.

    Yes, she said so in the episode in which she was introduced.

    So many more thoughts!

    I think a villain has finally out-done Janvier in the 'complete monster' category. I'm so glad that Sam killed Tahir in that explosion. And god, poor Sam! How does he come back from this? I was hoping till the last second that Michelle's death had somehow been faked but that scene in the morgue just about had me in tears. 

    I did appreciate Callen acknowledging his own lone-wolf tendencies as he was trying to prevent Sam from doing the same. And that Sabatino (whom the team seems to have accepted was not a mole) was well aware of the fact Sam was using him but didn't care. He cared for Michelle too and wants to help. 

    Loved Deeks dealing with Tahir over the phone. So coldly furious but determined to keep him talking to trace the call. You could almost *see* him repressing flashbacks of that faked photo of Kensi's death from Season Five (Spoils of War) or earlier this season when she was still it the coma. Sam is now living Deek's worst nightmare and Deeks knows it.

    Wish List for Future Seasons

    in The Big Bang Theory [V]

    I'd like to see Raj working on himself next season, starting with the realization that he *needs* to do the work in order to get anywhere. He had a good start this season with both financial independence and actually asking his former girlfriends where he went wrong but he needs to keep up the momentum. Starting with no more moaning about not having a girlfriend. I've always had the impression that Raj doesn't want to date women for who they are but rather so that he can say he has someone.

    S10.E24: The Long Distance Dissonance

    in The Big Bang Theory [V]

    I'd like to see Howard's dad too, if only to see Howard confront him about walking out. We've seen in the past how much pain Howard has from his dad leaving and how deeply that affected him. Now that he is a dad himself, I could see that anger really boiling over if the absent dad (since we don't have a name I'm going to call him Deadbeat) ever came back. Howard is a loving and devoted husband and father. I'm sure he couldn't conceive of walking out on Bernie and Halley. Confronting Deadbeat for not only walking out on himself and Debbie, but also going to have another family would be epic to see. I could also see Bernadette ripping into Deadbeat as well. She's very protective of Howard. I know it's a Chuck Lorre show but every so often he gets it just right in addressing the heavier stuff.

    As Sheldon was on his way to see Amy, I thought he might break up with her - only because they show has does that sort of unrealistic stuff in the past- but I figured he was jsut going to kiss her to sort of "erase" Ramona's lips from his.  The proposal was a very happy surprise.

    Maybe Amy has more patience.  There are extremely few people would would wait as long as Amy did for the smallest sign of affection.

    I think Amy felt it was worth it though, because she and Sheldon did get to know each other and spend time together as friends first. They were able to find in each other their intellectual equal and allowed things to build from there. I don't think Sheldon could have evolved like for anyone *but* Amy. He clearly feels she is worth it. And Amy has spend so many years lonely that I think slow burn was fine, in that she wasn't expecting *anything* so just getting *something* stood out.

    S14.E23: Something Blue

    in NCIS

    While I'm sure being pregnant and in a wheelchair doesn't automatically mean the mom-to-be is now a delicate glass flower for the next nine months, does it make her higher risk? Are their potential complications that wouldn't have been a factor otherwise?

    That seems kind of exploitive... What do they do? Go to parents whose kid is just out of NICU and say "we want to use your baby on our show?" I doubt many parents would not say no even if they were uncomfortable with it because the care of a premature baby is costly.

    Call the Midwife needs newborns all the time. They have notices up in OB/GYN offices for mom's that deliver (full term and healthy, they don't work with preemies) during the shoot dates and are interesting in letting their babies appear. Mom is on set the whole time, with very limited camera time for the baby and a fully trained nurse-midwife just out of camera range.

    No. Unless they used a doll, there is no way to realistically show a premature baby. They are just too tiny to be on set. I'm fine with handwaving the baby's size.
