After the complete snore of the mothership, this episode comes along and give us entertainment, depth, laughter and tears. I was wondering what Linda Rondstat would think about "Blue Bayou" as the soundtrack for a bar fight. That was not my my bingo card for this year. Great episode.

Last season was a fun season. This season? There's something seriously lacking. The writing is just not good. Why would Vance let himself be overrun by the Deputy like that? He's in charge not that needle nose? I kept wishing Gibbs would have been there to put that guy in his place. Parker has respect for his team and they for him but they have written him as a bystander. I may just give up after this season....

I can't link to it but I've seen several references on FB that Peter Yarrow is in hospice care and Paul Stookey of Peter, Paul and Mary has been by his side reading to him and saying his goodbyes....

The Bears and the Vikings are on MNF tonight. I would love to watch but my toleration of the insufferalble team of Buck/Aikman PLUS new episodes of NCIS and Origins makew it a highlight reel kind of game. Let me reiterate how awesome it has been to NOT have to endure Joe Buck on a weekly basis. Tony Romo is annoying but he hasn't reached the point of making my ears bleed yet...

I loved this episode and it featured a mini-Person of Interest reunion. Micheal and Carrie played star cross lovers on that show so it was cool to see them as opposites. Yes, the legalities were an issue but the show really is so campy, I can't take it seriously...and I need campy shows in my life.

I finally got around to watching this episode. Some friends were begging me to watch it as they wanted to know what I thought of the "John Denver reference". I am a HUGE John Denver fan. My handle is a reference to a song of his from the 90's. I figured the reference would be a Country Roads and Rocky Mountain High reference. They've used those on the mothership but to see the lyrics of Hold On Tightly on my TV screen and then HEAR it as the fade out song, I about fell out of my chair. I liked the episode enough and have some quibbles with it but the amazing use of Hold On Tightly just obliterates every thought I do have. For those who want to hear the actual song, I suggest you find it on his 1983 album "It's About Time". It's the leadoff track and it has some of the best lyrics John wrote of the decade. 27 years after his death, his music still matters.

So, will Max(?) face charges for the theft and home invasion? I was wondering about that. I know he can probably say it was under durress but that Mom and kid are traumatized.

Teri Garr will always be John Denver's wife in Oh God! Loved that movie and I can't fathom anyone else in that role. She always spoke highly of John Denver when asked. Mad respect and love.

I liked this one and having a Vance heavy episode more than makes up for the Torres episodes.

I found myself openly mocking the shooting scenes. The whole series seems to have lost that magic. I think the writing is on the wall when Tracker is the lead in to this. I think I'm out. I love the Queen but a love triangle and Vi being reduced to kitchen scenes is sad.

The biggest laugh for me was the conversation about how dull the summer break seemed with a random line about drunk driving in Sag Harbor. Great episode, great fun

I watched the highlights of the Packers, Vikings and Lions games and was wonderfully surprised at how fun they were all to watch. I can never root for the Falcons due to them beating the Vikings in an NFC championship all those years ago. I must say, I've wonderfully avoided hearing Tom Brady call a game yet. Also, it's been a huge pleasure to NOT hear the hideous noise of Buck/Aikman on any game I have watched. I also must admit that watching the highlight reels of whatever game I want to watch really works for me now. Investing three hours into a game just seems draining now. Yeah, the Vikings look hot now but we all know what has a great chance of happening but I'll enjoy the watchable football for now.

The larynx conversation reminds me that I saw a video on FB from last year of ME ranting against Jeopardy for calling those of us that are particular about "anxious/eager"usage as "language fussbudgets". I rarely rant in my FB videos so for me to do that, the show must have pissed me off...LOL... I did okay on yesterday's show but I was yelling "Desolation!!!" several times. Dylan's relevance faded a bit I guess.

Good, I can enjoy my show again...till someone else annoys...LOL!

I find myself zoning out for much of Jeopardy lately. I really don't like the current champ. I'm sure he's smart but the vibe of him being some amazing trivia warrior doing battle just irks me. A smile and a simple head shake are all you need to acknowledge you won. His theatrics and self applause turn me off.
