Yes! That would have been fantastic. Especially because the odds of all three having the same favorite seems slim. I totally agree. I understand it's hard to all of the characters in the same scene together, but at least have them in the same storyline. This felt like everyone was on the same TV show, as opposed to other episodes where it feels like it's two totally different shows. To some extent, I think that's why the relationship works. She knows he's going to go out and do nerdy things, and that's fine with her. She would rather he do them with his friends than drag her to them. I loved that of all the three wives, Amy has the most clear-eyed view of the situation. When Leonard, Howard, and Sheldon were trying to figure out who might be part of the game, and Penny or Bernadette asked "Is this going to be the rest of our night?" I think Amy's line was something like "This is the rest of our lives," which is pretty accurate. She understands the men in her life and knows exactly who she married.

I was going to write something similar. I had never heard the term "cheapquels" before. The only ones I watched were the ones for Aladdin and I enjoyed those. I skipped the rest. I did enjoy the animated series for Timon and Pumba, Aladdin, and Hercules.

That is a great game. There are are so many wonderful games that they should bring back or do more often for the current version of the show. You would think with the popularity of the Marvel Cinematic Universe they would do the game "Superheroes" every once in a while.

That's what I thought. My guess is that Henry may regret not having dated seriously and being alone at his age. Henry also knows that Frank is modeling the same behavior. I think Henry may be worried and does not want Danny to make the same mistakes. I also agree with everyone who said it's too soon and that it is wrong to put pressure on someone who is still grieving to date. My point is that I understand why Henry did it, but I think it was the wrong thing to do. I liked the scene at the end where Anthony tells Eddie she doesn't have to be like him. She should develop her own style and figure out what works best for her. I thought that was great advice. I loved Jamie getting so excited about broken windows policing working. He is Frank's mini-me in so many ways.

I know this probably won't happen, but I would love to see a Bull and Blue Bloods crossover episode. Erin needs TAC's help with a super important and difficult case, or TAC is using Danny or Jamie (recently promtoed sergeant) as an expert witness and we get to see Chunk or Benny do witness prep.

That's a good point. I hadn't even thought of that but you are totally correct on that point, especially in a small town in Texas.

To me "This is Reagan World" is another way of saying "it's TV, just roll with it" and in this case I am more than willing to do so. There are other times when I am not.

Althought this does beg the question, in that time and place, how did George know? Where/when did he develop gaydar? No, that it didn't occur to me but now that you mention it, that reaction line would have been fantastic.

I geeked out so much over that one for the guest stars. I recogized two of the kids almost instantly. It's also a good solid episode. I am going to try to explain the layout of the office. Miles has an office on a different floor and we see it a few times. I don't think we ever see Jim's office during the series. Frank's office is off on a corner off the main room, sort of next to Murphy, but with junior staffer's desks in between. We see Corky's office once or twice but I am not sure where it is. I can't help with the layout of Murphy's house.

I imagine very few people in a small town in Texas during the 1990s had gaydar.

I read "I could see them as a couple if Frank retired and he and Kelly traveled the world" and mentally added solve mysteries/fight crime. This is a spin-off show I could totally see CBS doing. I don't know if it would be good, but it's something I could see CBS trying. If this season is the end, I can see the finale being Jamie and Eddie's wedding. If it goes another season, maybe Nicki's wedding. Danny's boys are still too young to get married. Almost no one gets married while still in college, and Jack is still high school. In terms of a finale, I think a funeral (Henry's or Frank's) is far more likely than a wedding.

My guess is that Frank, and later Erin and Danny (after they had kids) made it clear you can spend Friday night and Saturday with your friends but Sunday is family time. Also, I can hear one of parents saying "you can talk to your friends after dinner" or "you'll see them at school on Monday."

My guess is that it doesn't go to the superior officers because each superior office is likely to support the officer under their command. Instead it goes to some tribunal like body that is supposed to be impartial. Also, enjoyed your reference almost as much I enoyed @ Miss Lucas's reference. I agree with you. Honestly, I want more short scenes of Baker, Sid, and Garrett in a room together. They have a great dynamic. Overall I really enjoyed this episode. None of the storylines felt rushed for time, which hasn't happened in awhile. I have been waiting for a Jamie/Danny story like this since the promotion and I was not dissapointed. I loved the way they handled it. It's kind of sweet that as much as they fight and disagree with each other, they both respect and admire each other.

I have no idea about the medical stuff I'm going to trust your expert opinion on that. Here's what I meant with one of my other points: Let's say there's a family member who drinks, and one who does not. The family member who drinks may be at a greater risk for liver cancer, but the family member who doesn't will not have a greater risk for liver cancer just because they have a family member who drinks. However, if there is a family member who smokes, the family member who does not smoke will have a greater risk for lung cancer. Second-smoke is real and poses an actual physical health risk to those around the smoker. I am not aware of any sort of direct equivilant for drinking.

First of all, I was responding to @Katy M. I'm guessing the context of the warning was the tpyical (if somewhat stereotypical and outdated) lecture that fathers, grandfathers, and older brothers often give. "If you hurt her, if you make her really unhappy in any way, you're going to have to deal with us." Here's an example pretty much spoofing the speech. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=176QIaC18Kk Why is it a big deal if someone who is over 21 has a drink with dinner? Since the Sunday dinners tend to be pretty long, she's probably well under the legal limit before she drives home. Drinking is legal, smoking pot is still illegal in New York so there's that. Second hand smoke from cigarettes is deadly and has a negative impact on those around you, while there is not a direct equivalent for drinking. As long as someone doesn't drink and drive, drinking alcohol will not have the same kind of long term health effect on others as second hand smoke. I don't get it. Characters can't drink on TV? Is the issue they are driving home after they drink? Is there some joke/sarcasm I'm missing?

I loved Eddie's wedding dress. This is where having four storylines hurts the show, because I would have loved to see more of the case Eddie and Jamie were working on. It felt like too much happened off screen because the show didn't have the time to cover it. I thought he meant that all of the brothers (and possibly Henry and Frank) talked to him at once, so they were all in a room together. I'm guessing Joe and Danny, probably Danny did most of the talking for the brothers and Jamie stood there and said "Yeah"/agreed with what Danny said. During the dinner scene instead of talking about their bucket list, it would have been fun to hear them talk about the medium and find out who believes in that sort of thing and why and throw in some surprises. For example, I think the audience would be surprised to find that Jamie, if he doesn't believe is at least open to the possibility and that while Frank does not believe, Henry does. Henry and Jamie rarely take the some position on an issue. Nicky doesn't believe, but Sean isn't sure yet.

To clarify my earlier comment, he would be real and the audience would see him and know he is real, but the other characters would keep missing him. For example: Jill is having a party at her house. Wendy and her boyfriend plan to go to the party. Last minute, he has something work related come up so he can't attend. We see the two of them together talking about this someplace (the location doesn't matter. What matters is that none of the other characters see him).

Agreed. It's common to have complications with multiple births now, so I imagine there would have been a greater risk in the 1980s when Missy and Sheldon were born. What I love about the show is that they have 6 major characters, and keep finding different ways to pair or combine them. We had not seen Missy and Mee-Maw interacting one on one before and it worked.

Great idea! I know this is a cliche but it would be awesome and funny. Wendy has a new boyfriend, but no one believes he exists. She can show them pictures, but the group will say it's photoshop and what not. They keep missing him/each time they are about to meet him he cancels last minute.

I could see an episode that features short flashbacks to what we missed during the 20 year gap working well, sort of like the election day episode they did during the original series. I think it would work best if it was focused on a holiday like New Year's Eve, Valentine's Day, or how each character spent a birthday.

I agree. I think Missy would do horrible mean girl things to anyone who called Sheldon a freak or a weirdo. I could see Sheldon creating a crazy and elaborate revenge plot to get back at someone who said something mean about Missy. I would love to see Georgie and Sheldon work together to take down someone who was bothering Missy. I don't think we've seen the brothers work together for a common goal, and I think defending/protecting Missy is one of the few things that would bring them together. This works for me. The show is about the cute kids and once the kids have grown out of that stage, I'm not sure how good the series would be. Also, 5 seasons gets them to syndication, which would make everyone involved in the show and CBS happy.

I could see her being a good expert witness in other cases, or someone they call for help when they need assistance with something fornesic related (not requiring her to appear in court).

I can't come up with the exact dialogue but I am pretty sure there there comissioners between Henry and Frank. I think there was a line about how Danny was pretty established in his career when Frank took over as comissioner while Jamie's entire police career was during Frank's time as comissioner.

Sorry to go off topic, but I thought I'd share this. I've read that there are advantages to having younger doctors. They are more likely to be up to date on the latest procedures, methods, breakthroughs, and what not. They are less likely to be stuck in thier ways and think things like "I've been doing it this way for 20 years and I've never had a problem so I'm not going to change." That being said, there is also something to be said for experience, but this was just a little message for those a bit worried about younger doctors.

@TV Diva Queen and @GHScorpiosRule I thought the middle name of Robert worked on two levels. It honors the actor who played Eldin and RFK. In other words, you are both right.
