An okay episode. Fatherly love at the extreme
My thoughts on this episode:
Was surprised Adam was taken out of the opening credits.
Glad Jon was listed third though (as he should). I know the opening credits are extremely expensive to produce but if Adam
has to come out, they should be revamped
Glad to see Natalia right away collecting evidence and then in the lab.
Okay, I am officially sick of the split screen
Laughed out loud when Frank raised his voice to aggravate the groomsman's hangover. Don't mess with our Francis:lol:
Got a chuckle out of the groomsman wearing the kiddie pool floation device.
Loved Calleigh calling Jesse "dimples"
Liked Jesse in this episode. It seems as if they are loosening him up, toning him down a bit and infusing a little humor in his character (maybe to mirror his growing comfort with his new surroundings and coworkers?!) Loved his referring to the groomsmen as "dumb and dumber" and "frick and frack". Yes, Jesse can also be implusive, grabbing the woman's purse and searching it while telling Calleigh he doesn't need a warrant. I thought it was funny that he took off the orginal handcuffs and used his own, but Jesse sweetpea how can the officer put the men in different cars when you have them handcuffed together? The writers needed to have reviewed that scene before adding it to the eppie.
I didn't see anything wrong with Ryan's exchange with the ME; both thought they were right and were just annoyed with each other and neither was going to back down (maybe a little male ego involved). Neither really seemed like a jerk to me. Ryan did find more of the same in the limo, so it worked out:thumbsup:
I, like some of us, have been concerned and upset with the tinkering of Ryan's character the writer seem to have been doing this season. Most of it has been mainly negative; making him look stupid or an insensitive jerk. It has been upsetting for me, because IMHO it is unnecessary and not a step in the right direction. IMO, it has been an insult to Jon Togo and the character he has wonderfully protrayed and his fans. Saying that....
It didn't seem that way this week to me. The writers didn't seem to deviate so much from his character at least for this episode (they were letting Ryan finally be Ryan) For possibly the first time this season, I enjoyed every minute Ryan was on the screen. He is looking better and better (glad they are growing out his hair again:thumbsup
. I always enjoy when he is paired with H and he continues to have good chemistry with Jesse and Walter (it is nice to see Ryan not being the outsider). In fact, his scenes with Walter were my favorite
"Don't use that word; my 84 year old bubbie uses that word" (Ryan has a bubbie?!)
--Ryan laughing; not WHY he was laughing but the fact he was laughing. I don't remember him ever laughing that hard
--That whole scene in the suite. Which brings me to.....
I must of missed something ( and it wouldn't be the first time): Did they explain (other than alcohol) why the painting was taken and did it have any connection to the solution of the crime or was it just a misdirection play?
I enjoyed this eppie for no other reason that the screen time was spread out fairly evenly.
