But I still despised Goren sympathizing with such a freaking psycho. I was actually glad the way it ended. Tagman deserved everything he got. Yes I agree Goren could relate because of his loneliness and all, but still, Tagman was one of the sickest perps the show ever had, he was a cannibal for god’s sake, and I didn’t like seeing Goren be so sympathetic to him and strongly going to bat for him. This was 2 episodes after Goren seemed sympathetic to another psycho perp in Semi-Detached.

I think he was overly influenced by Declan to believe his own pathology was ambiguous. Yeah, but based on Bobby's long look at Declan after Jo was taken away, I think Bobby realized that his mentor was a lot less admirable than he first thought. Based on the fact that Bobby did not even know about Declan's failing health a season later, it seems like he did his level best to put some distance back between them. Of course, much of that probably had to do with Jo going after Alex. And realizing that Jo did it to get Declan's attention because he was shit as a father, thus causing the whole damned thing. (I still remember Bobby closing his eyes, struggling not to show his horror as Jo detailed wanting to kill Eames.) She is one of the few people Bobby also feels close to and the whole thing, as we saw, really affected him psychologically, too. So it was probably also about doing it for his own sake as much as Eames. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89802-law-order-criminal-intent-general-discussion/page/37/#findComment-6687188

WendyCR72 April 12, 2021 Author Share April 12, 2021 Proving time really does fly, I was looking up an actor on an old CI episode to see if it was the same actor in a Mothership episode. (It was.) While looking at the CI side on IMDB that the actor (David Lansbury) was in, "Crazy", the one with Michael Gross as the killer shrink in S1, the cast list showed the actors that were in it. (Apparently, Lansbury did play the jilted boyfriend of one of the victims in the Betty Broderick-themed Mothership episode, "Wages of Love", in Season 2. He played dirty cop Michael Stovic in "Crazy".) Remember little Sophie, the daughter of the victim that Bobby drew a red crayon from behind her ear? Check her out now. Wouldn't even know it was the same girl! I officially feel so old. LOL! ETA: Never even knew it was her, but apparently, per IMDB, she also played the granddaughter in the Stephen Colbert episode, "The Saint", in S3, Charlotte, who said her dolls would not pray to Brother Jerome anymore and was also in "To The Bone" in S5 as the youngest daughter (at the sleepover the night before) and family member to be killed by the foster sons of Whoopi Goldberg's character.

Xeliou66 April 13, 2021 Share April 13, 2021 CI on all day on Sundance today - I just watched Mad Hops, that’s one of my favorite season 3 episodes, really good plot and compelling villain, I liked the back and forth between Goren and Powell, Powell was smug and condescending and quite pathetic really. I liked the investigation a lot in that episode, an extremely intricate case but it made perfect sense and wasn’t hard to follow,, unlike certain other episodes where there was too much going on to follow or there was a loose end. I think Mad Hops is my favorite of the Bishop episodes, along with Sound Bodies, by the time of Mad Hops, Goren and Bishop were working together pretty well. I didn’t like Karen Watkins very much, she was just using Powell to help her son out, she was stringing him along, she had no interest in him but pretended to be so Powell would help her son, she didn’t realize how far Powell would go to help her and her son or how obsessed Powell was with her. I also liked how they mentioned a bit of Goren’s personal background without it being melodramatic, like it would get in seasons 6-7. The scene in the morgue where Goren tries to swab the victims nose and Rodgers swats him away was funny, I love Rodgers and her interactions with the detectives. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89802-law-order-criminal-intent-general-discussion/page/37/#findComment-6719461

I should feel sorry for these women, but I don't. Didn't feel sorry for Powell or Webb, either, though! Yes I’ve never made that connection before but yeah Sara was stringing along Webb, except I wasn’t sure why she was doing it, Karen Watkins strung along Powell to help her son, I wasn’t sure what Sara got out of her relationship with Webb. I didn’t feel sorry for either woman at all. And no I didn’t find Powell or Webb sympathetic, both were somewhat similar perps, Powell killed to cover up the fact that he was pumping up stats for Ben Watkins, which he did because he was in love with Karen, while Webb killed solely because he was obsessed with Sara and thought she would be grateful to him for killing the victim. Both were rather pathetic, although Webb was somewhat off his rocker (he wasn’t legally insane but he was a bit of a nut) while Powell wasn’t. One question - did Webb know his victim didn’t molest his daughter? I know he talked to the daughter, did he figure out she wasn’t molested. I don’t remember if that was made clear or not. I think he didn’t care, he just killed him because he thought Sara would appreciate it, but did he know of his victim’s innocence? The victim in that episode was using his influence to get the judge to side with him in his custody fight, so he wasn’t very sympathetic either IMO, whereas both of the victims in Mad Hops were completely innocent and killed just because they stumbled on to Powell’s scheme.

In S1, Eames tells Goren - in "The Faithful" - how Father Someone or Other would LOVE to baptize Goren. That's when Goren tells her he was a lapsed altar boy and Eames joked she should have known. From that, I inferred she was Catholic, if not religious. However, "The Consoler" from S10 aired last night and Eames joked about the Catholic dating site on Theresa's iPad, musing, "I wonder if I'm too old for Catechism class?"

WendyCR72 April 25, 2021 Author Share April 25, 2021 "Con-Text" is on WE, the one with the Gracenote mind bending. Never realized until now that one of its former members, the dentist that Goren/Eames talk to, was the late Mark Blum (best known as the romantic rival to Crocodile Dundee in the movie of the same name)! So he was in two episodes, the other being "Proud Flesh" in S5. Funny that I recognized him in the latter but not the former. He seemed to be everywhere. So sad that he succumbed to COVID last year. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89802-law-order-criminal-intent-general-discussion/page/37/#findComment-6741333

Like I say, twisted episode. I liked the crossover appearance of the defense attorney Peter Behrens, he appeared in several Mothership episodes. I also liked ME Rodgers line about Botox leaving a good looking corpse. I like this episode too, but the Botox plot always irks me. Julie goes to the Botox guy with a terrible migraine and asks for Botox injections. Botox is used to prevent migraine, not to treat. It won’t help you at all if you’re in pain. It is not an analgesic. Trussssst me. 😡 1 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89802-law-order-criminal-intent-general-discussion/page/37/#findComment-6741629

But I do like when Bobby/Alex go floor shopping and when Bobby pulls Donnie in for a dance in the interrogation room. Charles Rocket was a good actor.

Yes I wouldn't mind taking a twirl on the dance floor with Det. Goren either *meow purrrrrr* Oh poor Margie. Her life appeared to be sooo....dull, average, and I think as a woman she just wanted someone to shake it up a bit. God bless her husband, he seemed nice but wow the guy was beyond vanilla. There was no excitement, no spark, nothing to look forward to in her life. I can understand why she did the things she did. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89802-law-order-criminal-intent-general-discussion/page/37/#findComment-6758504

Still don’t feel sorry for her. Cool motive, still a spineless twat. ”Death Roe” is on with Chris Penn as the guy who molested his daughter and not only murdered her husband, but killed an innocent food critic just to frame son-in-law for her murder.

I’m watching Death Roe as well right now, and I think Tommy is one of the most repulsive, evil killers on the entire L&O franchises, he was just pure evil. He murdered 2 innocent people in brutal ways just so he could keep on molesting his daughter, he was just a repulsive sack of human waste. It is a great episode, very memorable, I loved Goren’s final confrontation with Tommy. I always thought it was weird how Duke and his wife either had no clue about how evil Tommy was or just ignored it, it seemed like the wife knew about Tommy abusing Beatrice especially given that Tommy assaulted her, why didn’t she go to the police about Tommy? And Duke had to be completely oblivious to not see who Tommy really was. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89802-law-order-criminal-intent-general-discussion/page/37/#findComment-6758741

But he played Tommy Onorato to evil perfection. Hard to believe he was shy, awkward Willard in the original Footloose all the way back in 1984 with Kevin Bacon. And as for Margie, if I were her husband, I'd've let her ass rot. She's lucky he hired her a lawyer. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89802-law-order-criminal-intent-general-discussion/page/37/#findComment-6759281

As I’ve said before this is arguably my favorite CI episode, it was just such an excellent 2 part episode. The Garrett family were excellent villains. I also love Goren’s confrontation with Judge Garrett, he did a great job of getting him to explode, and as I’ve said before I don’t think I would’ve been able to restrain myself if I were in Goren’s shoes, I would’ve completely understood if Goren had beaten Judge Perv to a bloody pulp, but Goren was able to keep control of himself and get Judge Perv to incriminate himself. So many good moments in that episode. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89802-law-order-criminal-intent-general-discussion/page/37/#findComment-6766526
