I rewatched season 3 and I have enjoyed it tremendously. I was so sad about Carter but I was happy about Root. Two of the best episodes this season "Aletheia" and "Root Path" besides "The Crossing" were Root-centric. I loved how Root has evolved. And Amy Acker is such a great actress. And I really enjoy Root/Shaw teaming up.

He must be aware a lot of fans are not fond of him and Kimberly Harrison.

I would love for Jonathan Nolan and Greg Plageman of "Person of Interest" to run it. They are gutsy and they are phenomenal writers. I was listening to the podcast and I think it was Jonathan who said they don't care much what CBS says they do what they feel that needs to be done to move the show forward. They killed of a Lead character and a popular one too in the middle of the season. Who does that except Game of Thrones? And they have strong female characters. And they are written very, very well. I love both Shaw and Root's backgrounds. And they are both brunettes which I love. I adore Amy Acker. As evil as Root was in the beginning I could not help but love her because of Amy. And Sarah Shahi is just bad ass. Tarsji is just phenomenal. And Paige Turco is another strong female character. They really hold their own.

It doesnt seem like any member of Maura's family will be making an appearance.

It says episode 9.

I don't think Maura overstepped at all. I think Maura was nervous about teaching and she was using taking Jane to her doctor as an excuse to get out of it. I wish there was less and less of Angela. And it bugs me that Cavanaugh is not there without any explanation. I get it that maybe the actor is not available, but why not just recast him? Someone had mentioned animals are expensive but why not have Angela appear less and squeeze in Bass and Joe Friday? I don't need to see Angela every episode. They had the budget before and they should have the budget still unless both Sasha and Angie asked for big raises which we have not heard of.

I liked last night's episode. But the show can do without Angela once in awhile. Loved Maura's new guy. And Maura was so hilarious in this episode.

I am so looking forward to this just so that Maura has something to do that has nothing to do with Jane's pregnancy and Jane's family.

Because even though she loves Frankie and Angela, she trust Maura the most. She knows that out of the three, Maura can provide the most. As for Casey, who knows what is going on with him. And by the way, the show is called Rizzoli & Isles. It is about Jane and Maura. They are best friends. If you remember, Jane said to Maura she would her kidney to Maura, no questions asked. But she would have second thoughts about doing it for Frankie.

Person of Interest Season 4 cast Cara Buono http://tvline.com/2014/07/14/person-of-interest-season-4-cast-cara-buono-femme-fatale/

Well, from the intetview that Nolan and Greg gave after season finale they mentioned Root and how we will find out what it is that Root put on those servers to make them no longer targets. I love Root. She and Shaw are so fun to watch.

I wonder if we will see more of Root this 4th season

Yeah. True. I like both Sarah and Amy. Their characters are different and Root is just crazy. I would also love to see Kara back. We never really saw her body so there is still a possibility that she is alive. I love Anna Parisse.

Watching the interviews with both Sarah and Amy, they are aware of Root/Shaw fans or shippers. And as Sarah said "It's foreplay for both Shaw and Root." I love Reese and Shaw as fighting siblings. It will be interesting what season 4 brings. Amy and Sarah tweeted that they are in NYC now.

Ratings from last Tuesday's episode. http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2014/07/09/tuesday-cable-ratings-world-cup-wins-night-rizzoli-isles-pretty-little-liars-finding-carter-perception-tyrant-more/280791/?utm_campaign=WP%20%3E%20Twitter&utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=twitter

I agree. But the show has a tendency to forget that other people exists unless they bring them back in. Look at Hope and Cailin when Maura went to prison. It was all over the news and yet, we didn't see Hope or Cailin visit? It is ridiculous. Even more ridiculous is that Jane gives guardianship to her unborn baby to Maura. Also as much as I don't like Casey I just don't see Casey as the type to not want to get involved in the baby's life. Yes, he and Jane broke up but baby is another story. They are writing it as if he doesn't care at all.

BooksRuld I was cracking up so hard when Maura kept saying it wrong. Bastet - Because she knows that Daphne is Maura and she was just probably playing with Maura. Sasha totally owned this episode. And Susie and Frankie, very cute. And I love to see more of her. Rambler, I so agree with you. I hope they get another African American actor or Hispanic or Middle Eastern to replace Frost.

Yes more Susie and less annoying Angela is best. Susie should be utilize more than Angela. She was almost unbearable last night. If Maura wasn't so funny I would have been so annoyed with Angela. Sasha was truly brilliant last night. Her comedic timing is just spot on. I was laughing so hard.

I may just stick around. After reading tweets from Paget and Joe and their excitement about JLH, I will watch to see how they develop her character.

This episode has been the best so far this season. It was balanced and there was very little of Angela, which is best. The less we see her in an episode and the more we see of the others solving the murder the better. And how cute was Maura with the bike? She is so thoughtful and sweet. Sasha is so funny. It is why Maura is one of my favorite characters on TV. "French women don't shave their underarms. She's a lesbian. Hay. She's also on her first trimester.. Pregnant." I love this episode. Maura was hilarious!!!

'Rizzoli & Isles' Lifts to 8.7 Million Viewers & 'The Last Ship' to 7.7 Million in Live +7 Ratings Categories: Network TV Press Releases http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2014/07/08/rizzoli-isles-lifts-to-8-7-million-viewers-the-last-ship-to-7-7-million-in-live-7-ratings/280779/?utm_campaign=WP%20%3E%20Twitter&utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=twitter

It is not about whether JLH can act or not but can writers do a good job in writing her. JT is a good actress. The writers just didn't know how to utilize her. But then again, it also has to do with the actress and how she approaches the scenes. Sarah Shahi talked about Amy Acker recently and why she loves her and enjoys watching her. She said she loves how Amy goes against or does the opposite of what the script says.

A friend of mine who is still a CM fanatic said to me "CM used to have great songs but now, not anymore." When I mentioned about Lily Kershaw songs being played during those big episodes, and that she is Glenn Kershaws daughter, she said "Oh, no wonder." She is an alright singer. She is not that good. Her voice is very common as well as her songs. She isn't someone that grabs your attenrion, only when her songs are played on CM. I don't think I have heard her songs played anywhere else but on Criminal Minds.

Haha. According to my calculation, yes. But for the sake of show, she shoukd get the boot as a writer.

2010 that would be the time she started dating RD, right?
