I'm surprised nobody has started a board about this yet.  I love the show, but I think the recent two part episode was a let down.  They just streatched out a bunch of scenes.

If you don't know the show, it's about an ex-cop who had a mental breakdown after his wife's murder.  Despite that, it's actually a comedy mystery show.  He is obsessive compulsive and afraid of everything, so being a detective he's always in those kinds of situations.

Yes, salad.

Great little show.  This, along with Psych make for a great duo on a Friday night.

A bald man named Savalas visited me last night in a dream.  I think it was a Telly vision.

USA's got some pretty good shows.  Psych and Monk are great.  Only one I can't say I like or have interest in is Burn Notice, which is odd, cause I like Bruce Campbell.

Yeah, I like Monk and Burn Notice.  I didn't watch Psych very much last year.  I was kinda peeved that USA canceled The 4400. They also canceled The Dead Zone, but that has really gone down hill and last year they ditched several characters and move the production the Montreal (I'm assuming this was to lower the budget).


I like that USA and SciFi schedule new programming during the summer when the broadcast networks are in reruns.





And you thought Trek isn't cool.

I love Monk. Psych is ok.  I am glad they cancelled The 4400.  It felt like they were stretching it a bit, and reaching for nothing.  The Dead Zone was still good, but when they killed off Sara's husband and had her going after the Vice President, I lost all intrest.  Who else here thinks that Natalie is HOT?

Who else thinks Sharona was a prostitute.  Her voice, outfit choices, and relatioship status say it all.

I didn't think that Sharona was a prostitue, but she sure dressed a litte risky sometimes.  I thought she was good looking too, but Natalie has that girl next store look and attitude about her.

I like the actress who plays Natalie.  Thought she was cute for years.

I think Natalie is hotter but Sharona and Monk had a better chemistry. I like the first 2 seasons best, especially the 2nd.

Killer Bees

I like the ep where he ended up in Mexico on a case and wouldn't drink the water because it wasn't his favourite bottled brand.

He nearly died of dehydration and then ended up buying roomsful of the stuff when he got home.  His assistant took one bottle for herself which horrified him and he ended up buying even more because he was worried he'd run out.  *lol*

Seriously though, how awful would it be to have a condition like that?  Every day would be like living in hell.

I think he was more afraid of Moctezuma's Revenge.  :bouncegiggle:

It really sucks how the actor that played his therapist just died.

I agree, I liked Dr. Kroger.  He was a good anchor for Adrian.
