Mercy

It really was an excellent scene. It skirted the maudlin and the superficial so nicely. The writing on the show and the acting is just stellar.

I love the way they introduced her. Very well done.

Tonight it starts a 4 straight weeks of new episodes (which will probably be the last 4 episodes of the series)

TheCentralScrutinizer · 22 Apr 10 :: 01:06

That sucks, Rick. I am really sorry to hear that. I really got attached to those characters. I think I missed an ep though. I tried to tape it, but Dave changed the channel so I got an hour of stupid G4. When was the most recent ep aired?

Editsound · 22 Apr 10 :: 01:21

3 or 4 weeks ago. It was the second episode with MSM.

We haven't been cancelled, but it seems likely (the ratings are weak and the demographics are worse). Our hope lies in the fact that the network apparently likes the show, and after the departure of Jay Leno from primetime, they have a lot of space to fill. But I am trying to get some pilots so I will be covered for the fall.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 22 Apr 10 :: 01:28

Oh, OK. I saw that one. I really hope they find a way to keep it! Are they keeping Trauma, do you know? Or are they just burning off the eps they had in the can?

Editsound · 22 Apr 10 :: 01:32

Don't know for certain, but it has a much smaller chance than we do. It is very expensive show, and it's ratings have been as weak or weaker than ours. I think the plan was to just show what they had already done, but if the ratings have shown any life, maybe. (I haven't been paying attention to its ratings on these last few they showed.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 22 Apr 10 :: 01:48

Yeah, the expense is obviously such a stumbling block. Typical of the shows I fall in love with, they never get a fair shake. Mercy, Trauma and Life Unexpected were my favorite new shows this year.

"Where did you learn to drink like that?"

"You, OK? I learned it from watching you!"

Only Americans of a certain age will get that, most likely.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 22 Apr 10 :: 04:58

Oh, and BTW... excellent ep. The big scene with Ronnie and Dr. Mary Stuart Masterson was phenomenally well-written and exceptionally well-played.

Editsound · 22 Apr 10 :: 05:30

thanx, and I'm sure I get the joke you are refering to.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 22 Apr 10 :: 06:00

Sure or not sure?

Editsound · 22 Apr 10 :: 07:12

obviously i'm tired...not sure

TheCentralScrutinizer · 22 Apr 10 :: 15:34

Remember those old anti-drug TV ads where the parent would yell at the kid: "Where did you learn to ___________?" (smoke weed, pop pills, etc) And the kid would yell back, "You Dad! I learned it from watching you!"?

Editsound · 23 Apr 10 :: 00:58

okay, I think it was a smoking ad

TheCentralScrutinizer · 23 Apr 10 :: 03:32

Here's the one I was thinking of...

Editsound · 28 Apr 10 :: 23:38

just to let you know it starts at 9 tonight

TheCentralScrutinizer · 29 Apr 10 :: 01:15

Thanks for the heads-up! Been looking forward to it all day.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 29 Apr 10 :: 04:43

Kinda got immediately sucked into SVU, but I enjoyed the show tonight. So many great little things. But I loves no one recognizing Harris with his new haircut and without his beard. And he finally looks like James LeGros! As a long time fan of the guy, I'm so glad he didn't stay an insufferable prick all year.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 06 May 10 :: 03:22

Hey! Don't jack my taco, bitch!

TheCentralScrutinizer · 06 May 10 :: 04:02

Hell of an ending. Man...

Editsound · 06 May 10 :: 04:25

loved the taco line. lots happening next week...

TheCentralScrutinizer · 06 May 10 :: 04:28

Can't wait.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 13 May 10 :: 03:41

God, this is BRUTAL.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 13 May 10 :: 03:59

Oh man! What an ending. Please tell me the show's coming back, Rick. Do you know yet?

TheCentralScrutinizer · 13 May 10 :: 04:03

Heh, you're back to back tonight, Rick. Gervais is on now.
