Still got the fruit :awesome_for_real:

Edit: Don't like the slimey new boss, though. Bring back Robin Weigert damnit!

This show is the police procedural equivalent of House.  I don't really care about who committed what crime, I just like watching this dude be quirky.  And while I can't fault the new guy's taste, seriously, he could stand to  tone down the creepy.

Yea, Robin Weigert made a cameo appearance. Hope they bring her back for more episodes -- maybe even have her working a case with the two main characters now that's she's been demoted back down to Detective.

I'm in complete agreement about the new guy. Don't like him at all, really. He seems very uncomfortable in a creepy part.

Other than that, though, still really like the show.

He seems to be less quirky this season.. less of the whole Zen stuff.  I actually like the show and I like Donal Logue playing the creepy Captain.  I think he's kind of a stand out because he's a NY cop and he works a bit different then the LA ones.

The episode from Friday 8-10 was the best of the season.

Am I the only person on here who still watches? And I the only one who rewound the panty shot of Sarah Shahi?

Besides that (which was awesome) the ep was great.

They've all been good this year (well I missed one episode so I don't know about that one).

I'm not a big fan of the new captain. I don't think he fits in with the show at all and takes focus away from Crews. Other than that, though, still watching and enjoying.

Not to creepy guy if you have an insanely hot woman who is trained in weapons naked in front of you DON'T call her dude.

Love the show.  Damien Lewis is an underappreciated actor. 

His work in "Keane" was spectacular.

What amuses me about that is my wife calls everyone dude. Including other women.

I'm still watching.. I think this is the only "cop" show I watch anymore.  I've given up on CSI and Law and Order.

Duuuuude.  :grin:

She's not naked, but maybe your work environment frowns on pictures of girls in bikinis on your desktop, so be forewarned.

The show is brilliant.  Best on right now in my opinion.  Crews picking up the phone and the reaction was just brilliant.

Post by: Gutboy Barrelhouse on February 09, 2009, 03:05:04 PM
Crews getting the bullet that shot him, melting it so it then work in his gun and shooting the FBI agent that shot him, brilliant.
One of the two best shows on TV (LOST is the other for me).

I'm still loving this show. I'm worried that it might not be back next season however.

For some reason, I dislike the relationship between Danni and the Captain. I guess it's because I keep hoping Crews will get with her. Which is odd because they don't really have chemistry.

Man, that girl with the pink hair from last episode was...odd. I loved how she was totally different when she dressed up as the rocker than she was in her day to day life.

That's Angela Goethals and it was orange hair (she's a redhead in real life) and yes she was "in character" when she was dressed up as the rocker.

The ratings have been bad, so yea it may not be back which would be very sad. One small glimmer of hope is even though it's sucking in absolute numbers is actually doing okay if you just look at the NBC shows but that's cause NBC is doing so badly.

Lol. You seem to know more about her than I do. I know she was in character, but it was...interesting they way they did it. It was such a huge contrast from her "normal" self and she did it even when she didn't need to like when Crews was giving her a ride.

Last two shows have been great.  I really don't know of any show on TV that is currently near the quality.  I love the dialogue, acting, and overall ploting of the story (both the episode and over all arch).

God I love this show. It's going to suck when they cancel it at the end of the season.

Post by: Riggswolfe on March 12, 2009, 06:00:13 AM
Sooo...what do you guys think of the revelation on Wed? My guess is she was just asking him about her dad. I think we'll find that she didn't believe Crews when he told her her dad had nothing to do with him going to jail and she is now investigating things on her own time. Maybe Danni will finally get pulled fully into what Crews is doing?

And have you guys noticed that they seemed to have dropped the addiction tension from her character? Also, why is she at the FBI and barely in the show lately? Is she in a movie or something and so has less time?

She's pregnant in real life.

The movie sucks but she is in Rush Hour 3 and the booty shot in the first few minutes makes it worth the cost of the DvD alone. In my opinion.

Is it being canceled at the end of the season for sure?  I've seen it a few times now and I like the quirky lead character.  The plots aren't brilliant or anything (it IS a tv cop show after all) but he makes it really enjoyable.

NBC hasn't said anything yet but the ratings are low enough that it's very likely this is its last season.

I love this show, but I keep missing it since they moved it to Wednesday. I need to watch it on Hulu or NBC's website.

Season 1 DVD just came out a week or so ago. Buy it if you love the show.

Aside from just how much I like the show for it's acting, characterizations, and plots, the music is pretty sweet too.

Well, to be honest, the episode I watched last night was kind of stupid.   :uhrr:


Title: Re: Life
Post by: Tarami on April 02, 2009, 09:46:15 AM
It's an alright show, I'm on episode 11 of season 2. Mostly it's quirky and kinda funny but since 90% of it is really just a rather silly crime show I can see it getting the axe. In my opinion, the remaining 10% that advances the overarcing plot doesn't really bring enough to the table to motivate that the majority of the show is very, very formulaic. It also gets very stupid sometimes, like the berating of the chief for calling her a dude while she's stark naked in front of him. The cases they work on are usually too tidy too, and wrap up far too nicely every, single, episode.

Hm, I guess there are quite a few things about it that bother me. But I really like Crews and Ted, the only two that seem to have any real chemistry somehow.

However! Bonus points for having four different actors from Deadwood! :awesome_for_real:

Indeed.. I really hope Life and Chuck don't get cancelled.  They are two of the better shows that NBC has.


Title: Re: Life
Post by: Brogarn on April 10, 2009, 06:16:02 AM
If this show does get canceled, they left me satisfied with this last episode. It was fucking awesome and tied up all the threads just like the first season's last episode did. In fact, if they do get picked up for another season, they should always do that. Tie up everything at the end of every season. Prepare to be canceled. Come back and do it again the next season.


Title: Re: Life
Post by: Fargull on April 10, 2009, 08:08:35 PM
The last episode was brilliant.  The only point of confusion is from having Garret Dillahunt as both the villian here and in Sarah Connor Chronicles...  though he is great in bth rolls.  Damien Lewis is going to be around for a while, whether or not thi show keeps going or not.

I have this wild hope that USA will pick it up but seriously doubt it will happen.
