We most certainly would have known if he HAD repented. The homo-Gestapo would have told us loud and clear.
I like POI as a window into the dystopian digital future (and the humor to help escape from the present).
Contrast with what Donnie Wahlberg's more successful brother Mark is producing at HBO.
Gee...I remember a time when everybody wanted to beat up Donnie Whalberg!
Yup. I DVR POI too, though, as you say, it’s way out there. And I like hot gun totin’ women.
Really like the show, but he’ll always be Thomas Magnum to me. When I watch re-runs of Magnum PI, I marvel at Selleck, Hillerman, and especially Bellasario. Just great television.
CSI New York was surprisingly conservative, lead by conservative Gary Sinise playing conservative Detective Mac Taylor.
Those weekly dinners with family are some of the best scenes of the series. The characters debate their feelings (both liberal and conservative) yet at the same time the adults shelter the kids through non-explicit discussion.
A current, minor, plot thread is how the youngest cop will get a “normal” promotion without any appearance of nepotism. An episode from a previous season included a scene that illustrated the whole family is aware they have targets painted on them - one of the characters “hit the deck” when a code phrase was uttered.
I also like the Jessie Stone movies. They are, in my opinion, a rare case where the movies are better than the books.
Agreed. It's nice to see a "family" having a meal together.
Looks like it’s gonna’ become your fave, only one Justified left. And it’s going to have to be a doozy! I can’t think they would possibly leave Eva in prison. And if Wendy needs some comforting over Kendall, I’m on my way to Harlan County!!

I did a brief stint in Armed Forces Police in NYC in 1967. We were covering an antiwar protest at White Hall Street with the NYPD.
An old NYPD Sargent looked at some FBI suit running around and looking impressive before the cameras and said, “Kid, the three biggest lies in the world are Home Cooking, Home F##king, and the FBI.” Never forgot that.
One or two of my extended family don't like the weekly dinner scene. I think it adds spice...no pun intended.
Even their one or two anti-Catholic TV caricature type shows treated the Catholic Church with respect, not only in attitudes of the actors, but in script conclusions.
The show does, indeed, employ some fantasy, but what cop show doesn't? It took a good part of the first season for the actors to get comfortable in their roles. An interesting test will be what they do when any of the actors move on to bigger and better things. For today it provides a escape that I like to anticipate.

Blue Bloods is my aging mother’s favorite show. We always ask if TJ is in this episode, that always gets a rise out of her.
