Snazzy Daisy April 19 Share April 19 Synopsis: Quote When a female robbery crew “honeytraps” and kills several rich VIPs, Hondo and 20-Squad are called in to assist FBI Agent Jackie Vasquez in capturing the dangerous fugitives before the death toll rises. Commander Hicks is shocked when his new love, Maggie, abruptly ends their relationship without rhyme or reason. With help from Deacon and Dr. Wendy, Hicks makes an important decision about his romantic future. Link to comment
Danielg342 April 20 Share April 20 (edited) Blah. Great to see Jessica Camacho (Agent Vasquez) again as well as Hondo's joke that kept Deacon honest, but that's about it for the positives. It was a rote case with a stereotypical criminal- women love shiny things, I mean, who knew?- with the rote obstructive bureaucrat who is only there to create artificial drama and arbitrary roadblocks for the heroes, only for said bureaucrat to see the heroes' value in the end. Blah. As for Hicks' storyline with Maggie...for real, show? This has to be one of those storylines the show wrote thinking it was the final season, because why do they have to break Hicks' heart again? Maybe they can pull the same thing Empire did and reveal Maggie doesn't actually have ALS and she has something else...implausible, maybe, but it'd be a happier story. I mean, great for Hicks to be there for Maggie through what will be some painful days ahead, but...for real, show...you can give someone like Hicks a happy story every now and then. Blah. Oh, and no Tan or Powell despite their apparent status as series regulars. At this stage, I don't know why the show bothers to list anyone other than Shemar Moore as a main cast member. Blah.

Snazzy Daisy April 20 Share April 20 Where’s Victor Tan? They bring back Lou Ferrigno Jr. because someone needs to drive Black Betty. He’s more appreciated at 9-1-1. Could care less about Agent Vasquez. But it’s nice seeing Dr. Wendy again. For Hicks/Maggie storyline, they copied it from Criminal Minds, isn’t it? It’s what happened with David Rossi. Geez Shemar, please stop saying “baby girl”. It’s overused and overrated. It painfully reminds me of that annoying, socially immature character from CM. 😣 I love Deacon but I’m truly not looking forward to next week’s episode (SNAFU). 😣 Link to comment

Somewhat...I believe Carolyn had cancer, not ALS. Same idea, though. 3 hours ago, Snazzy Daisy said: I love Deacon but I’m truly not looking forward to next week’s episode (SNAFU). 😣 I'm not looking forward to it either, but something tells me that one of the three that appear to be written out- Deacon, Luca or Street- will be back for S8, likely filling the old role that Cortez used to fill (my guess is Deacon because Jay Harrington made a lot of posts celebrating SWAT getting a S8, whereas Kenny Johnson only tangentially acknowledged it and Alex Russell didn't mention it at all). I'm also predicting a new cast member for S8 in a bid to "freshen" the series. Link to comment

He’s my favorite. No Deac, no SWAT for me. 1 hour ago, Danielg342 said: I'm also predicting a new cast member for S8 in a bid to "freshen" the series. Please don’t hire very mediocre actors like the 3 newbies just because they don’t cost much. It doesn’t help when 2 of them look quite the same. 1 hour ago, Danielg342 said: Somewhat...I believe Carolyn had cancer, not ALS. Same idea, though. Carolyn had ALS. It’s mentioned in 7x05.

I do think there's a high probability of that. 37 minutes ago, Snazzy Daisy said: Please don’t hire very mediocre actors like the 3 newbies just because they don’t cost much.

I might get behind a storyline where Hondo sees himself- the good and bad- in a new recruit. 39 minutes ago, Snazzy Daisy said: Carolyn had ALS. It’s mentioned in 7x05. Oh. My bad. It was Kristin who had cancer- must have confused the two. 1 Link to comment
