It's amazing how much New Orleans looks like BC!

Well, some kind of imagination. I'm not sure I'd call it far-reaching (though it certainly is a stretch!) 🙃

I was kind of hoping they'd call Russell to deal with the the SuperSecret agency stuff. (No, I knew Ackles wasn't going to guest star, but one can dream...) So...to recap just the beginning: a customer walks out of the dressing room of a very expensive boutique in NYC through an "emergency exit" *that has no alarm!!!* And despite the fact that she left her purse and phone behind, the police aren't interested. And the man who winces at a thousand-dollar sweater is ready to hand out about $25,000 in cash to a stranger to find his wife (we know how Colter gets his cases, but how do they find him? It's too soon for him to put an ad in the paper...) Then, he "hides" in a supersecret high-end hotel suite, with multiple rooms and expensive furnishings, which should cost more than that sweater per night; and the bad guys find him within hours. Or maybe minutes. Oh, and not-Bobby manages to hack into this supersecret agency's files while Colter's waiting. With not just one but several passwords apparently broken in minutes by some sort of software. I have to admit, when Bobby's cousin said that they were on to him, I thought (and maybe hoped?) that the badguys were going to show up and kill him, and we'd get Bobby back. But no such luck.

Nope. It's part of the "nothing happens after the credits roll" TV mindset. No retribution from bad guys, no repercussions from police, no teary farewell scenes from would-be love interests. Never mentioned again (unless they show up later as guests/recurring roles).

Well, it does say Bobby will be back this season.

He started out in westerns (after Laramie he became the scout on Wagon Train and was in quite a few western movies in the 50s and 60s). He only got his MD when westerns went out of style. But he always kept his sideburns!😊

Hey, my favorite show when I was a kid was "Laramie" so I always have a soft spot for Wyoming. (It's available on some free streaming platforms now, and has held up surprisingly well!)

I want to know how he managed to decapitate an adult male with just a little switchblade knife. With no hacked or sawed edges, either.

These weren't plot holes...this was a thin line of plot barely strung together, like a fishing net that a whale swam through. My handwaving was more like an airplane propeller at full speed.

Well, that was...disgusting. And so illogical/stupid, in oh, so many ways. I should have waited for the reviews here.

Probably the problem with non-crime stories is the reward angle. How many people have $50,000 or so to find a loved one lost in the woods? Not to mention the time lag between them disappearing and the family advertising and finding Colter (apparently after search & rescue and other, more standard ways have given up).

Sounds like I'm glad I missed this ep. This forum can serve as a guide to "worth watching or not." Thanks, everyone! 😊

I have to admit, I was doing something else and forgot to watch until the last 20 minutes or so. So....finally remembering (and finding my remote for the local channel) I turned it on...and non stop commercials. Literally. I finally went into the other room and listened for the commercials to stop, but every time there was a pause and I went back into see if the show was resuming--another commercial. Was there actually any show? There's only about 6 minutes left of the episode and still no show, so I just gave up and turned it off. Honestly, between the disappointing stories the last few eps and the disappearing amount of time the show is actually on, I'm thinking maybe I should just give it up.

Big stories would show up in places like Variety or Hollywood Reporter. Other than those, take things with a grain of salt.

That's what I thought. Which makes it worse that they didn't even mention the old man.
