And that was a problem with the series overall, keeping "partners" separate from each other, particularly the men. There is one season 12 interrogation with Andy and Medavoy and I think their differing styles could have worked well together for the occasional case. Big missed opportunity.Go Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15018617603451088055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7266470995513648978.post-4383357084974472112016-08-31T10:53:23.832-05:002016-08-31T10:53:23.832-05:00I really enjoyed Murder One — albeit more in conce...<br>I really enjoyed <i>Murder One</i> — albeit more in concept at times (or for certain pieces of the whole) than execution. Daniel Benzali’s defense attorney Ted Hoffman there was, I think, more noble and principled than James Sinclair on <i>Blue</i>. Anyway, I still wish to heck that he’d been cast as either Wilson Fisk or the Byrne incarnation of Lex Luthor.<br /><br>Blamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07342343767763035991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7266470995513648978.post-52273135642202756162016-08-18T09:37:44.763-05:002016-08-18T09:37:44.763-05:00These reviews are nice.

I stopped watching the show a few episodes after Smits' character died, so reading your posts is interesting. wwk5dnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7266470995513648978.post-50413892765437929792016-08-17T21:11:45.854-05:002016-08-17T21:11:45.854-05:00Jeff,

The rest of the medical jargon presented this season is certainly played as real, so I'm not surprised that there was a specific reason for the dentist scene.<br /><br />Eric,<br />I believe there were four 90 minute episodes of NYPD Blue, and Amazon only has 2 of them. Directv has none of them.<br /><br />Rick Schroeder was put in a bad position, and I don't think the producers helped him out by establishing him as so emotionally damaged, AND by having him chase Simone's widow. As for Delores, I've never come across any information on why Milch suddenly veered in such a dark direction. He did acknowledge that he makes his stories up as he goes along when writing DEADWOOD, so I'm assuming he was following a similar approach on BLUE.G.

I could see cutting stuff for syndication, but not having it for streaming?<br /><br />So are Sipowicz and Katie going to get back together? (Don't answer.) I honestly don't know how I feel about that.<br /><br />Is there any record of why they suddenly flipped things with Delores? I mean, I love these over-arching plots they do on the show, but it was kind of random for the snarky PAA to turn into... yeah.<br /><br />LOL at being one of Rick Schroeder's loved ones. I actually feel sorry for the guy in hindsight. Even if he could get the lines out, he still had to "replace" Simone, which was impossible.Eric Magnushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13561025479642283501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7266470995513648978.post-26858002948618416872016-08-17T11:24:46.282-05:002016-08-17T11:24:46.282-05:00"I’m not sure why, but the early episodes thi..."I’m not sure why, but the early episodes this year seem to be placing some importance on Bobby’s dentist accidentally nicking Bobby’s mouth during his check-up. How this plays into his heart condition, I’m not sure."<br /><br />I actually had heart surgery as an infant and still have to take antibiotics before I have any dental procedures, so this is accurate. Oral infections can travel to your heart pretty quickly and cause major damage if you have a preexisting condition, so the show was pretty medically sound with that one.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14447265712189987074noreply@blogger.com
