Wallace/Hodges: Full Experience #3

Why hello new episode screencaps! :lol: What a pleasant little treat to stumble upon this evening. It certainly has been a while like you said Raynn. Between a couple of episodes where Wally wasn't there and repeats...it's great to finally see him again.

Poor Hodges had a fast one pulled on him last episode. Oh if you were only paying attention :lol: Ah but you were still great.

Thanks once again Raynn, for nabbing and posting those caps. Love'em!

 

^ Better than no appearance at all

Gotta try and stay hopeful for next season, though I'm having a hard time with that at the moment

 

Yeah, I was disappointed for the limited screentime Hodges had in the finale, but I agree with you sharp, it was better then no appearance at all. Seeing there wasn't much that was done in the lab in that particular episode, I am at least pleased that the writers managed to find a spot to put him in.

Thanks once again for the screen caps Raynn. You know I appreciate you doing it

 

Honestly, I really like the direction they've been taking lately and hope they continue. I like seeing him get more involved in cases and getting out into the field (even if sometimes it doesn't seem logical). I really, really love his character and think he adds something to the scenes when otherwise it threatens to turn into something too predictable.

 

Look at Smokey posting comments in the wally/hodges thread :lol:

Okay, while I don't mind the new direction tptb have taken this character up to this point, from time to time I kinda miss the obnoxious arrogance that the character was first introduced as. Mind you, I am extremely glad that the writers and the producers seen the potential and decided to develop his character....and didn't leave him as a one–dimensional fill in wherever they saw fit to put him.

I love how in season 11, the team took it upon themselves to include Hodges a little more into the various cases...if only for the fact to help him get over Wendy. And I rather enjoy seeing the guy out in the field. As freaked out as he may be, he seems to be somewhat of a natural...BUT, like Smokey already mentioned...only if it's logical. Don't put him out there just for the sake of putting him out there when there are trained CSI's available...though as a Hodges fan...I won't complain too much! If it's justified, then fine...but keep him in the lab if not.

What I would like to see, other then Wendy come back....and I've been asking this a number of times over the past several seasons...I would still like to know if Hodges has a juicy little secret in regards to LA....seeing he transferred from the LAPD. He said back in season 3, in his first episode appearance, "They said I had an attitude problem. Said that I thought I was entitled." I wonder if there was suppose to be anything more to that, that tptb wanted to include, but just at a later date...or if it was just what was said and nothing more.

I would say no...that is not asking for much. and if Wendy isn't coming back, I would love to at least have a mention of her....like perhaps an email, phone call or text...unless he is indeed over her. And if that is what tptb were trying to portray in 'Man Up', I am not still not buying it.

But overall....I just want what everyone else wants for their fave......decent screentime. I will be content with that. (though I know Wally is usually filming other projects while filming his scenes for CSI....so his lack of screentime, or his no show, from time to time, is at least explained)
