Yes, I just saw it too. I had to laugh about a couple of the comments.

Thoughts: I do wish that Sean would play Gibbs. The stories would fit together better. Then the young Ducky and others would have to play also. It is nice that Mark will narrate. Will they have JAG members in the storyline also? Will they have Gibbs dad played also?

But you always see where the local Officer or Security guard stumbles in on something going on, and is shot or taken hostage. I do like at times where the local Officer helps stop the bad guy, and not be a part of it, or the reason they were bad.

Ice Beer and mixed drinks.

I can't right now watch the OC crossover episodes because of my familys cut back in our tv package. SVU episodes are still viewable, but OC are not. So ofcourse I get confused when you talk about both shows episodes at once. So I will have to wait on some of my takes from the story lines. But I do think McGrath was being an idiot. All the hustle to get the perps put away kinda took away from the rest of the case. Jet didn't screw up. Benson and Stabler do sometimes talk to much about their history. I did think Finn and Bruno talking to Manny Lopez about his rape, infront of the bystanders, was not cool. But I was surprised that with today's thinking on Gay or not, and Martha his mom thinking he won't be a "man" now because he was forced to service a man? It shouldn't change him really, I don't think, unless he had that in him to begin with. Does that make him the male version of Kate Wallace, where people can "see" that you are vulnerable to being used? I think it is both hogwash. It was nice that Bruno tried to tell her how to treat her son. Having someone like Randy Gordon's case, mixed in, is something that must happen at times and the only reason he was intertwined was that he picked Kate Wallace as a victim. I thought when he was on the bench, that he was a cop watching Kate and she was scared for no reason, boy was I wrong. I liked seeing Rollins, surprised she is so knowledgeable so quickly. And without seeing OC yet, I can't give more of a summary. I didn't catch that Muncy was actually leaving. I figured she would make up her mind at the end to stay. I wasn't happy Rollins was leaving, and sure all the replacements start off awkwardly, but were falling into place. But I don't like that the budget makes it so some team members have to play musical chairs per episode. Do the sponsor sightings game if you have to to cover it, so be it. Finn with a Mountain Dew, or Benson asking for a Cutty Sark on the rocks. It is usually more real then a generic drink. Also them and the FBI watching Larry, Sandy etc., working, seemed like they were at the office 24/7. I guess Jason Bettencourt going to work on the hard drive thoughts will have to wait until I see the OC.

I haven't seen the OC crossover yet, but I didn't know that there was different DNA at each crime scene? The victims were different age and nationalities, was the only differences I remember. I did write to one of the shows a couple years back and asked why a show discription was different then the actual outcome. They said that when they work on ideas, they sometimes change the final story after they write up the discriptions. I did like that Grace Muncy tied up the Elias Olsen case. I know that Benson and Stabler are uneasy with eachother after thr last meeting, that is why this meeting was kind of like each feeling the other out. Probably why Olivia wanted to meet alone. Or not call infront of the precinct. After I see OC, then I can comment more.

First off for me, I thought the Youngs were Naomi's parents. Giving her a ride to the Debates, instead of riding the bus. Then she tells that the boys on the bus harass her, I said, "oh oh, raped by the bullies"! But when the bus shot came on, first I thought it was a flashback. Then after Todd harassed Booker, I thought he would have something to do with it. As the debate ended, and they were back to the motel, I thought it probably wouldn't be Todd. My list after Naomi said yes to a drink, was 1, Booker, so he would get payback to the bullies. 2. A group of boys, Sean, for calling her ice Queen, Booker for what I said before, and fill in other boys. 3. Finding out that Parker Young and Helene Young, are the chaperones, that maybe he did something behind Helene's back, especially after she asked Naomi in the hall if she was alright. We found out at the precinct that Naomi was the only girl and her room had a door to the boys? My thought was, being the only girl student, why didn't her room have a door with the Youngs? Later after the threesome came out, I took back my offer of shared doors. Also I was amazed that the 17 and 16 year olds drinking beer, was no big deal to the chaperones? I to was surprised and confused on how Booker could record the making out? Was he in a closet? Or outside? Neither seem plausible. Finn was nice to see back. I hate the musical desk chairs with the 5 Detectives and Carisi. It seemed like he was walking slow. He have any problems? When Colin Sharpe was telling the press how good the Youngs were, I thought, what a goof, I could have bullies him in school, and I was bullied alot. Later when his true feelings came out, I felt bad for him. It seemed to easy for both Fin and Carisi, breaking him down. It was nice at the end when Finn offered him help. You see why the Youngs played on him and Naomi, both having problems at home. I do agree that Naomi's mom, Amber Hayes, does need help, and the 2 need to work stuff out. Nice that she appreciated Carisi's work, and might be a Lawyer someday.

Yes, Frances Fuller didn't think Grace Muncy was old enough to be a cop, but the 3 "hostesses" were old enough? Fin not at work again. Just throw away a line about him catching a cold, in court or something. I do think Maxwell letting Roger Briggs choking to death wasn't good. Even with him telling her about how her ex was right. Atleast call 911 a little quicker, even if you physically couldn't help him. He still would be dead, but you can be a little less guilty feeling. We don't really know how much Roger knew or did, even though we know he was lieing about somethings. I'm not sure he really loved her.

I didn't know at first if the couple in therapy was husband and wife, or what. It wasn't then stated, and maybe they wanted you guessing? It seemed like hubby(son), was kinda skitso and wife(mom),more prudish and strait laced. I figured also with her going upstairs in the new apartment building to do the wild thing with Eugene, that Martin was the cuckold hubby who wasn't performing well. Then as stated before he went off with Mona Stewart as pay backs. Then he came home to a house that was wrapped up for the off season it seemed, to Sonny and Cher playing, Connie making dinner in her apron. So that seemed like 1960s, Dad coming home after a hard days work, to dinner ready and wifey maybe not happy, but ready to take care of his needs. I guess she tried to keep some family tradition going. Then ofcourse we see them in bed the next day, cuddling. Weirder still. Couldn't they look into the financials to see the payoffs of Mona and Stanton Garber? Also interview the Psychologist Esther Pazargoti(IMDB). If they did have to dig deeper for evidence, they would have to. How did Mona die? I thought with her drinking Champagne, as Muncy and Churlish left, that maybe she comnited suicide? Or was thrown(jumped) off her balcony after the girls gave her the hard truth. After last episodes"lime Chaser" kinda pointed to the rape weapon, I thought maybe someone would be found suffocated in bubble wrap. Or if Martin did it, he took her out with his inhaler. Mom was poisoning Martin with his inhaller I guess and the coke mix. To keep Jr. Anemic. Dad Peter, kinda told what he did was wrong, but he was scared at the time, and probably after leaving with the Nanny, Bianca, was penniless. So he might have figured he was powerless to help Martin. I didn't really think about how young the Nanny(step-mom) was, but I did think Martin might flirt like he did at first with Mona. Yes, both Connie and Martin have to pay for what they did. Henry Caputo also for the coke. I did like Carisi's cocaine and able quip. Also the mob question and Finns reply. But I to was confused on Finns question or statement about grumpy Carisi. I to thought, " but you were there!?"

Fin had the day off. Carisi "talked" on the phone to ok the UC action at the bar. Rich guys in town for meetings or whatever want to let off some steam. They ask the bartender how to meet easy girls. They don't want hookers. So there was a bunch of bartenders in different bars looking to hook them up, for cash. So for Abby( the redhead), was just at the wrong bar at the wrong time. If she wasn't there, or wasn't having problems and wanted a tequila, then the other bartenders would be looking to match Chester and George with a red head. But the reason Alec, the ex and his date Leslie didn't look for Abby, was they thought she hooked up with a guy, or just went home mad. But not sure if a redhead didnt show up that night, would the guys be out of luck? The bartenders were backed by the Patesh family, as the evidence showed when they raided Sunil who made the drugged limes, ( I to thought it was the salt), and his brother Rav and sister Asha who trucked the drugged "main event" of the party to the rich guys at the fancy motels. So this had happened many times. But also there had to be times, friends did take home a drunk candidate. Or the bartenders selected only the girls that were alone. Teddy, Grace Munseys brother, was friends with Arlo the bad bartender. The guys didn't trust him because he gave Bruno and Velasco a couple of "I don't care" answers about sex with a drunk girl. Also when he was at the meeting place at the motel, he didn't answer his phone when things went wrong and the entire NYPD was watching Muncy boast about drinks and Churish gave them the slip, with help. I am surprised that Sunil Patesh knew who Teddy was when he was arrested. And as stated earlier, the 2 guys were snagged in Canada, by Interpol. It would have been nice to see local PD picking them up. Unlike with the FBIs going from NY to say Colorado in "minutes" to make an arrest. Also not all bad guys are stupid enough to stay in town thinking they got away with it, because someone else set it up. The new cast is a learning curve, but you shouldn't have a plug and Play "Rollins" or "Amaro", everytime one leaves the show.

So it might not have been Jenna Scotts finger that deposited the sperm, but the syringe? Zoe Greene said the penis was um kinda small. But it would have been stiff, and not bendy or knuckley like a finger, also she probably had longer nails then like a mans.

I was glad, Vlad didn't break into the safe house, like baddies do in almost all the different series. I felt bad for Lena when Scott Forrester found Gregor Lebegor dead in the park. But I figured when he said he went straight, that he would die. I liked that Maya fought back against Vladislov Padlovic, when he grabbed her and again with her gagged at the old rail yard. I am glad she didn't break it off with Andre Raines. It happens to often in these shows. Cops can only date cops, no please. Sorry Cameron Vo. I liked how Scott took Vlad down. The spike and the shot. I worried he would be only wounded, and taken away again.

Yes, Patty Hearst did cross my mind.

"Sins of the Past" 5.19, yes I am behind on watching. Actually the restaurant owner Ahmed Khan wasn't the friend of Mustafa Samir, Omar Hassan was Zahn's friend. He told O.A. that Omar brought Samir in to get a green card, he had citizenship problems(something like that), I keep notes, but not great ones. He also said that he bought the Ford Expedition. He didn't findout it was to be used for bad things until he saw the empty explosive boxes at the warehouse. Probably the reason he still had a picture of the Suv, so Omar could see if Samir wanted it. Also probably why he wasn't killed like Omar did to Vince Duggan. I thought at first that Ian Lim had dropped the ball by not finding the Ford photo on Khan's phone. But who would think that he has a picture of it? So Hassan and Samir were the buddies who saw his father dangled and dropped. I figured when Jack Lombardo came aboard ,and his actions, that he did something wrong. I am glad that Jubal did the right thing even though at first he was conflicted. But ofcourse Lombardo with his attitude sealed it. He did though go quickly from not admitting to it, then to admitting. All without alcohol. I to thought of Frank Reagan as 1PP. But he would have Danny and Baez take down Samir. It is to bad these series in the same towns can't collaborate on cases some times. Even if it is a line like, "we contacted 1PP and Commisioner Reagan has his officers on high alert," or something!

I didn't know either. I like the side project to save Hetty. I had always thought that Sam or Kensi was going to break off and work a series with Lance "Bill Goldberg" Hamilton. I don't think Sam and Nina Barnes would last as a series.

04-11-23, Miseducation of Metcalf 2" 4.17, I'm sorry I'm behind on it, but DVR still holding, also gives me something to watch over the summer. I don't want to pay extra to see Criminal Minds just to see Rossi swear. My big question is how did press hear one girl might be pregnant? Only Kristian and Ray were in the motel room. I liked Hana taking Graham down, but theoretically, soon to be alone, he could do it again. I also thought maybe the tobacco less smoke that Patrick blew in Mayas face, was making her and Bethany cult followers.

Sorry I am late to the story, i think I haven't been here since like 2017. But let's just say, life got in the way. With time running out in my DVR record, I had to binge to finish up. I think Josh Folsom figured CSI was on the way and since he got the evidence he needed from Kahn Shefter, he'd let them find him and arrest him. He did cut his straps, and that is how he saw the scratch that his mom, Jeanette made. So I am not sure how he left him. But Josh did tell him that his boss Rafael Tarquenio, ( yes I take notes and use IMDB to get correct names), will be mad that Kahn ratted him out. I do not think that Trey killed him. Yes he was mad at Josh for turning him in as he said at the strip club. But later I think he was scared when Josh got so upset. I am not sure where Trey went to when Josh left. My thinking is that Rafael and/ or his nephew saw on cam what was going on and took out Kahn for snitching. He might have taken Trey for leverage also. But I am not sure who cleaned up the blood so quickly? I would think it had to be Josh. Rafael would leave it to further implicate Josh. Especially since the box cutter was left behind. Was Kahn killed with it? And unless Rafael was going to make Kahn disappear and the Police sirens scared him, why leave Kahn's body in the dumpster so close? If to implicate Josh, then leave his body by the tipped over chair? Not outside in the alley dumpster where theoretically they could miss it, or the garbage man came early. Another clue has to tie in with Catherine Willows showing the cut scar on her arm from her last meeting with Rafael. Maybe they figure out that way who killed Kahn. Not totally sure about what happened, but Josh will have to go away for awhile. Penny Gill has to be engaged to Chris Park or Jack Nikolayevich, the MEs brother. Allie Rajan shouldn't have been picked over Josh, even if he is going to be disciplined. He has more experience. Even if she gets the job because he screwed up. I think Josh and Allie will be back together. Serena Chevez was a bit put out because he didn't tell her everything. I tell friends things that I don't tell my wife, lol.

There are a lot of loose ends and story lines that don't quite add up. Not sure how they will, if they will fix it. All should at times be proven wrong on things, and find that success isn't easy, like in real life. Yes Boyd started out front and center and they tried to kind of do the "Cosby and child" play with Mike and Boyd. Then people complained Boyd was to much, and he was pushed to the back ground. So it is hard to know how to do things so most people like it. They also went through the "Kyle was an idiot" stage. Then hes "good hearted but simple", which is kind of the same only not so blatantly stupid. But Mandy isn't the smartest at times, but is making her business work.

Well I know what you mean. Had binge watched Home Improvement earlier this year, but with the other series I try to write on I didn't want to make time to dig in to that one on here, lol. Do feel bad they have to recast Mandy, and "age" Boyd. I know for awhile fans on here wanted Boyd pushed to the back ground when at first it was mostly him and Mike. But he almost disappeared. They did recast both Ryan and Kristin's actors when the series was young. So I guess we will get used to it, especially if it lasts more then one more season. I do think they could stick with the Mike and Ryan disagreements of opinion. They still had it with Mike and Vanessa, and Mike and the girls. I do wish they wouldn't just drop things because of lost of interest, or not sure how to move on. many series have the same problems. i hadn't watched the new Rosanne but was going to. To bad she had to be dropped.

The talk between Sherlock and Kelsey to me was also kind of a "maybe I'm blocking her decision" talk about his problems and the odd living arrangements and if it takes him moving to help her decision to give the baby to Joan then he would do it. He does admire Joan. I also liked the talk she had with Kelsey. With not yet watching the following episodes, I wonder if either Joan will decide to not keep pursuing a baby since her circumstances are hard to raise a child, or Sherlock sees how much she wants a baby and will propose to her out of her need for a more stable "family" environment? it will not be because of love, it will be because of convenience? It would be nice if down the road, Kelsey Chapman lets Joan know the baby was born and all was good at home? Jane never told Kelsey that her family was dysfunctional. She glossed over it when asked about what they thought of her decisions. It was nice to hear of Clyde also. Maybe true he will soon make an appearance. Maybe his schedule is busy at mall openings etc., lol. I thought at first that Levi Salinger was the killer. But my upbringing on "Detective Shows 101" would tell you that the smarmy boss who you meet early isn't the killer(usually). Then the push off on to next suspect, "unarmed" Troy Rosetti also wasn't the killer. I would have thought that Salinger was price gouging for something that would help clean the environment and that Laura Wexler stole it to make it cheap and affordable to all, instead of the other way around. But Sherlock's cases seem to always have a little twist to them. I did though after meeting Mr. Lance Pickering, think he was just to strange to not be associated to the murder. Ofcourse the twist would have been for his assistant Marjorie to be the killer to make her boss not stress over Laura making waves about the sand and the seedy construction company permits. But she probably wouldn't have dumped her body in cement. I wonder if Vikrant Jindal will come back into Sherlock's radar in the future or if it was just a one time detour to the case? I thought the construction Bosses look on his face when "Professor Cone Dunce-cap" Fred, cut into the concrete and he saw the body, was priceless. But other then getting sick, what do you expect when you see a body? It is nice that Sherlock is rested and feeling better. Also nice that Both Marcus and Thomas commented and wondered how he was doing. But in the last couple episodes Capt. Gregson learned just how much Sherlock respects him. Even if he didn't tell him about his headaches and problems. I believe also he will press and the problems will return at a most inopportune time. Maybe when Micheal comes back to town and Sherlock confronts him.

I can see if your not used to having racial diversity in your neighborhood it might be intimidating and you could worry about saying the wrong things. But Vanessa seemed to push it a bit far and still said things she later kind of regretted. Then Mike played off that. But yes I agree continuity was off. Yes the Carol line about her leaving left much to be desired. I am thinking about binge watching to refresh my memories off all the episodes. And now look at them from a more informed angle.

Katy M. I agree with you there. Talking about the family dinners and Sundays. They could show the family playing games, like we saw Danny and the boys do. They can be board games or cards. My kids played these with their grandpa often. They could even show the family in the yard maybe, playing catch with a baseball, football, frisbee? My dad did that into his 70's, so Frank and Henry should at-least look like they are, lol. Or just have the older adults watching and chatting?? We also used top watch sporting events together and comment. Just ideas.

To add to my talk above, I thought that Dante Sorrento might have shown a case of the regrets, or remorse? he sat behind the Squad car watching ,then picking up his gun he kind of looked hesitant. But even being paid to shot these people, he has to have some conscience. He shot a teen girl, an older lady, a DA, and 2 Officers. This would make all but the most hardened criminals think twice, wouldn't it? Maybe that is how Jamie could lay down on the seat and not get hit. He also knew by then that there was chance he could be a target too. They have swapped partners before, this could happen again and just have the interaction at the precinct and away from work.

I did tear up at the hug after Jamie was shot at and Eddy saw he was ok. I am glad she shot Dante Sorrento. It always seems that her and Baez never get to actually solve the Police problems. Sometimes they have good ideas, but it stops there. I thought at first when they stopped to get teas, that Jamie had spotted a tail. But that didn't happen. Now was the car mislabeled as a Nissan? Or did Sorrento change cars but kept the same color? I would think if cops are looking for a dark sedan, then change it up to red or green? But I know a dark car blends in better. But then also he could have changed plates too,(stolen) lol. I am glad to see Jamie and Eddy together. Was surprised they jumped into proposal so quickly. But they have dated off and on for several years. As stated above I couldn't tell if the family knew about the shooting. I would figure Frank would know, even if Sid called him at home to fill him in. "Hey Boss, your son Jamie was in a shootout today!" Yes it would have been nicer to see the family glad he and Eddy are ok. Eddy did a good thing getting the patrons down. It showed she was doing her job, even if it meant Jamie getting shot. I thought that Henry and Frank aren't for them working together when married, but they are happy for the couple. I to teared up when Danny was talking to Linda at the cemetery. I really didn't notice it later that the snow disappeared so quickly. But living in NY state your used to snow. I thought Danny on the arrest of Duann Wilson and talked about the snow, was just one more jab about having to go to NY and not being locked up in Miami. I also thought I'd see Horatio Caine or Frank Tripp on the Miami Dade Police arrest. A few years ago i thought the same as Criminal Minds had a episode in the same town. It was nice that Manuel Escobar helped Jamie and Eddy with info. Also could see kinda why mom was mad. But wondered if she was hiding something? Also was nice that they helped Luis.

To me it did seem that Jack Boyle thought also that he and Erin could catch a bigger fish in the gang if shooter Malcolm James would talk. Luckily they didn't solve it by the end of episode. But they should work together on it to finally bring someone in. Did they arrest Risa the girl friend in the argument also? I did like Jack telling Erin about everyone needing a fair shake. Then him telling her about the Reagan way. Forgot exactly how he worded it. But I did figure when Jack told about his wedding picture that he missed those days. Maybe they will get back together, or at-least be friends again? Sure most Reagan men don't care for Jack but... Jamie and Eddies case, which ofcourse is part of Erins/Jacks case. But Eddie being shot surprised me. But she was hit in the vest, Officer Andrew John Dunleevy was shot in the head. I was surprised that Jamie thought he was still alive. But being a Firefighter/EMS you always have that hope. I figured he would be moved by Eddie being hit. He trying to talk to her when her bf Barry Cooper kept showing up was very awkward. It was nice that he was the one who dumped her when she talked to much about Jamie. But it could happen again. I know they have feelings for each other, Eddie and Jamie,(and most of you here don't want it), but Erin pointing out to Jamie about loosing her with out her knowing his feelings is true. But ofcourse Jamie will hide his feelings and Eddies time with Barry will run it's course. Either they will break up, or all of a sudden he will want to marry, and she will be unsure. It was nice for Frank to visit her in the hospital. The wake was sobering. It was nice for the family men to all be in uniform at the dinner after, and the talk ofcourse paralleled all the story lines together. Danny's case, Janay Brown(her and Danny might make a good pair), and her son, Amir Christopher Browns unsolved murder. I do think that Danny solved it to easily, but the gun in the drain helped a lot. I do wish when he and Anthony, and Baez dug in the crud in the drain that one of the others found it. it just seems to often Danny does anything important, and the others are there for smart remarks. I do wish also that we would have seen an interview with Amir's buddy Jordon Robblis(sp). I figured using Detective work 101, that when Janay said Amir was at club with Jordon, he was more then likely the killer. Like at times Danny and Erin arguing about the cases, and then Anthony and Danny's jabs at each other at times are cute too. I did like the game night at end with Danny reflecting on all the members being happy playing a Linda tradition. It is nice when he smiles. I almost thought that Janay Brown would be at the door. But not all problems can be solved so soon. Franks story. Yes at the press conference for the announcement of Officer Dunleevys murder, Mayor(still want to say Poole), Maggie Dutton(Liked her in Rizzoli And Isles), did speak wrong, but it seemed like she wanted to put everyone at ease and not cause tensions. But as we know she did in the Police and in the public. I hope the news of the murder being for a gang initiation would calm the public. But Mayor Dutton definitely saw at the wake that she made the NYPD not like her. It does seem like she won't stick around, but you never know. Frank may just at election time, back her. It will probably be a decision he makes after we see who her opponents are. She did bow to him, basically. But I like that Sid, Garrett and Baker all have their opinions on things too. I myself liked Erin and her first investigator, the one before Anthony, but can't remember his name.
