WendyCR72 September 5, 2014 Author Share September 5, 2014 Just finished "Monster" -- somehow, I'd only ever seen the last maybe two minutes of it a long time ago, so it was one of those rare episodes where I had no memory at all. Yeah, I picked up right away that this case was based on the Central Park jogger case. I was only a tween/teen then. Can't believe it was so long ago now. I think it was that case mixed with the Preppie Killer from around the same time frame. I did like the foray into Central Park. It's one of the things I liked about the franchise. New York - the REAL one, and not another place or sound stage - was a character in itself. And as for that nightgown, Eolivet, I THINK it was manipulated in its position to trap the dirty cop, but it was...a bit confusing. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/142616-season-two-gorens-sherlock-and-eames-watson-meet-their-moriarty-regrettably/page/2/#findComment-351663
Eolivet September 6, 2014 Share September 6, 2014 . I think it was that case mixed with the Preppie Killer from around the same time frame. Ah, I definitely don't remember that case. Central Park jogger, yes -- but not Preppie Killer. That last scene in Central Park really was cool. You could see all their breath! I liked the authenticity. Sometimes it felt like the Law & Orders all took place in mid-autumn (trenchcoat weather). Nice to be reminded New York has four seasons. I definitely got that they staged the photo to trap the dirty cop...I just didn't follow how. If the cop had looked at the photo and said "No way, her nightgown was pulled down!" then I could see it, but from what I saw, it seemed like the dirty cop mentioned her nightgown was pulled down and then Goren showed him the fake photo and was like "Yeah, we know you're lying." Bobby Goren will always be several steps ahead of everyone -- including me, heh heh. Slightly off-topic, but I'm very excited that Ion is showing season 1 episodes tomorrow! It's been a while since I've seen season 1 -- I feel like they don't come up as often in the rotation (or not in the rotation around my viewing anyway). 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/142616-season-two-gorens-sherlock-and-eames-watson-meet-their-moriarty-regrettably/page/2/#findComment-352553

Even Cloo is now showing CI repeats, but I don't get the channel. From the episode descriptions, Cloo is into the later years, so it's cool that Ion is back to S1 later today.

Full of twists and turns, but somehow not convoluted, just a constant guessing game. Doesn't hurt that Joel Grey is a great actor. One of the strongest episodes of season 2, in my opinion.

To take a life for some twisted chance of preserving a sample that probably had no prayer of saving his son is some completely disgusting morality. And purposely keeping his son in the dark, allowing him to pass on the disease without his knowledge, so the father's legacy could live on? Horrific. It's not as if the daughter even had the brain he was looking for -- she was collateral damage. That he had no problem disposing of her to get a sample of her father's DNA is just beyond the pale.

The guy who plays Andre Braugher's husband, Kevin, on Brooklyn 99 and the lawyer in the baseball lawyer firm on Parks & Rec played the...seminar-giving guy whose name escapes me. That was a nice discovery. I like when he "made" Goren and Eames just based on his belt buckle. That was Goren-esque! I thought "Monster" was a really strong ep, though I've only seen it once. Season 2 had a mix of twisty cases and convoluted cases, and I thought "Monster" leant towards the former.

"Cold Comfort" was in S2 which involved the daughter of a politician being stabbed to death in a bathroom because she wanted her father cryogenically frozen. The father of the grown son with Alzheimer's wanted the guy's brain to study it since the dead politician somehow miraculously recovered from his own Alzheimer's and went on with his career (welcome to TV!), so the philanthropist dad with the grown son had the dead man's daughter offed to get it. (G/E bought the son in at the end as a "witness to a crime". The son was told he had a brain aneurysm/condition by his father and encouraged his son's engagement in hopes of grandkids to continue his legacy for when the son deteriorated, not caring the disease is hereditary and keeping it from the son and his fiancé. The son was told his medication was a series of vitamins for his "aneurysm". (He got the meds from doctors in his father's company.)

Donny Ketchum August 19, 2015 Share August 19, 2015 A few days ago, I DVR'd "Tomorrow." My God. I'm once again reminded of something I really wish I'd kept forgetting. Has anyone been that desperate (or shrill) at staying with a loved one that crazy Hannah? Even to the point of rolling on Sarah, whom she supposedly should've loved enough to at least make sure she got off? The actress was good, but my God, the screaming! 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/142616-season-two-gorens-sherlock-and-eames-watson-meet-their-moriarty-regrettably/page/2/#findComment-1426751
cooksdelight August 19, 2015 Share August 19, 2015 Merritt Wever (Hannah) won an Emmy for her work on Nurse Jackie and probably gave the shortest acceptance speech in history. "Thank you!" :) I've often thought that Noelle Beck (the wife) has been on the most episodes of any L&O franchise. Other than people who play defense attorneys, of course. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/142616-season-two-gorens-sherlock-and-eames-watson-meet-their-moriarty-regrettably/page/2/#findComment-1426805

To be fair, the birth father skipped and the birth mother died of AIDS while in prison when the girls were small, so they probably only had each other in foster care until Sarah was adopted. Hannah was just too damaged. If she wasn't, Sarah's adoptive parents would've adopted her, too, but Hannah was forever stuck with the fantasy that her father was going to come back for her. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/142616-season-two-gorens-sherlock-and-eames-watson-meet-their-moriarty-regrettably/page/2/#findComment-1427403

Damaged or not, it didn't excuse either of their crimes. Or Hannah rolling on Sarah when Sarah never rolled on Hannah, even when Goren and Eames gave her the perfect opportunity to in exchange for a life sentence rather than the death penalty. Not to say they shouldn't have gone down. They should've. I'm just not pleased with how it did. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/142616-season-two-gorens-sherlock-and-eames-watson-meet-their-moriarty-regrettably/page/2/#findComment-1427427

Other than people who play defense attorneys, of course. I think Jenna Stern has her beat. I know she was on four CI episodes alone ("Crazy", S1; "My Good Name", S4; "Endgame", S6; "Cadaver", S10). She also did a bunch more for the Mothership and SVU. If I recall, there was some page that listed most of her appearances on the franchise and they were numerous.

cooksdelight August 19, 2015 Share August 19, 2015 Yeah, but she played a recurring role as a judge. I am talking about guest roles. :) Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/142616-season-two-gorens-sherlock-and-eames-watson-meet-their-moriarty-regrettably/page/2/#findComment-1427629

She also played two or three different ADAs among others. So I am still giving her the slightest of edges over Noelle Beck. :-) Even so, I think those two had a good 5% to 10% of the roles throughout the franchise.

cooksdelight August 19, 2015 Share August 19, 2015 One day when I have time, if I ever do, LOL...

I'm going to research which actor and actress had the most roles across all the various franchises that were not recurring roles. Gee, cooks, I hope you have years of free time to embark on that little endeavor. LOL! On an unrelated note, I see "Blind Spot" (the CI episode, not the new NBC show with the same name!) is on the WE weekend marathon in the next three weeks. Good one as far as the acting and drama goes. Even if I still have an issue with Eames getting victimized.) Which has zip to do with Season 2. Just saying. :-) Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/142616-season-two-gorens-sherlock-and-eames-watson-meet-their-moriarty-regrettably/page/2/#findComment-1430683
WendyCR72 August 21, 2015 Author Share August 21, 2015 "Person of Interest" is on now and while it isn't a favorite, I do like how it sort of ties into the last episode, "Zoonotic" with the anthrax angle, not leaving the ending of "Zoonotic" to just hang. So, a sequel that isn't, in a way. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/142616-season-two-gorens-sherlock-and-eames-watson-meet-their-moriarty-regrettably/page/2/#findComment-1435827

And what did I do to the TV Gods? I turned on the ION marathon to see what is airing and it's freaking "Palimpsest". UGH! (I truly believe it is the worst episode of the entire series and doesn't feel L&O-ish at all in tone.)
