It's about time something good's on TV...
Last week was kind of skimpy as far as good TV, well, except for that Battlestar Galactica show that I watched again just so I could be traumatized by the ending. I've been taping stuff since I can't get home to watch at a decent time and then fall asleep every time I sit down.
The Closer is back on! I LOVE Kyra Sedgwick's Brenda. I even like the red lipstick.
to deal with, arson of course, burned bodies left and right, and a nervous wreck as usual. Then somebody spouted out the name Croelick (I've no clue if that's the correct spelling but it's how it sounds) and Brenda goes about 5 shades whiter, which is scary considering her normal color is already pretty pale, since this is the guy that was too too interested in Brenda from a couple of years ago and he should have CREEPY and SCARY tatooed on his forehead in warning. And of course he's a suspect in this new fire disaster since some idiot let him out of prison.
One body of a woman turns out to have started the fire since she was beat on the head, covered in alcohol, and lit. They're trying to give me nightmares, I don't like this burning shit. And "rehydrate the hand," WTF?
Brenda and Fritz are squabbling over everything, not being married, not finding the right house, not fixing the toilet, the cat, you name it. Spit was flying. And he peed in the shower??? Oh, yeah, he's a guy alright. How old is Brenda? I know she's definitely several years older than me but I'd swap bodies in a second. Must me all that nervousness that keeps her looking good.
Brenda goes to the hospital to question suspicious acting firefighter Tom. He keeps talking about the homeless people being in one area of the fire and that's who he was looking for when he found mystery woman's bbody. Brenda looks doubtful.
They all gather at the station to moan and groan about suspect Croelick. He eventually pops up to pick on "just plain Brenda" which if I'm not mistaken was started during the original show he was in. He makes my skin crawl.
For some insane reason, a trap that doesn't really make sense cause I don't think real cops would do it this way, they take Croelick to the site of the fire where he's in orgasmic delight at seeing it and telling them all how it happened, which he knows because of his superior intellect of course. But...the girl was already dead when set on fire and apparently that's not how good old Croelick would do it....SOMEBODY PLEASE SHOOT HIM NOW, it'll save a lot of problems down the road.
Anyway, the cops are all hot because Ricardo was leaking info to Croelick or his attorney or somebody...wtf, he's an idiot too. Ricardo and Brenda get into a screaming argument...they're all so mature...
Okay, what horrible thing has Brenda done in a past life that would make her deserve to wear a murdered woman's burned, blackened, hand skin like a glove???? Somebody? Anybody? So they successfully get fingerprints...I don't believe this part, no matter how good science is these days, melted skin is melted and burned away skin, no prints left...but since I'm not writing the show, miracle upon miracles, they get fingerprints and ID her. She's Linda the stalker of ex-boyfriends.
Pope makes Brenda and Ricardo make up. Pope's so hilarious, I love him.
Sanchez gives a blow by blow description of Linda's murder, fucking with Ricardo while doing it (go, Sanchez!) They try to figure out how the killer got away from the fire scene without somebody seeing him.
Fritz pops in, toilet's not fixed, the poor cat's in Brenda's office, she's still pissed at Fritz.
Brenda figures out the killer used Linda's car to transport her and then the car got towed. And who shows up to get it at the impound place but firefighter Tom. He claims Linda's death was an accident but then there are those four other pesky little deaths caused by his fire. Bye bye Tom.
Brenda goes home, plumber's leaving, toilet's fixed, Croelick's inside the house...oh shit. He gives her candles and a lighter and leaves as a clueless Fritz comes in.
Ok...show's over and Brenda's fire-lover stalker is on the loose. Oh, yes, she'll sleep real good.
I missed Saving Grace last week, the premiere show I think and never did catch the rerun. I still don't understand how I can enjoy the show so much and still think Grace is the trashiest tramp I've ever seen. And I'm sick on her co-workers either bedding her or petting on her. She's a grown woman, get a grip on life.
And of course we start off with naked bodies and progress to food-covered nasty naked bodies...
Grace and Ham are in their 40's right? At least she is, I'm not as sure about him. And I'm not saying they shouldn't enjoy sex but...attention show creators, producers, whoever...IT'S NOT SEXY FOR THESE TWO TO BE SMEARING FOOD ON EACH OTHER, turned my stomach. All this stemmed from Ham telling her he'd left his wife (who wouldn't want him never, ever again anyway if she could see one of their naked wrestling matches, especially if food were a factor) and Grace realizing that...uh oh, he's free so she might be stuck with a real boyfriend which is so not her style.
Clay wanders over later, finding Ham's shorts. Grace acts halfway embarassed but I doubt that'll curb anything. Clay leaves and then Earl pops in with...chickens? Too bad it wasn't earlier, Ham and Grace could've used the feathers to cover up their sticky, nasty bodies.
Grace gets called to a crime scene with blood everywhere but no body lying conveniently around to tag it to. The apartment belongs to Paul somebody, a young guy, who Grace actually knows since his father died in the bombing that killed her sister. So once again Grace is investigating a case where she is personally involved with possible victim/suspect. Grace goes to see Paul's mother who says he has a bad coke habit and I'm not talking about the yummy kind you drink. He also has a missing girlfriend.
Grace insists Paul's a good kid and maybe all the blood's from a nosebleed. Ooookay. Then she mention's she was at bomber McVeigh's execution. She seemed to get off on mentioning that which I find disturbing. Then she learns Paul's missing girlfriend called 911, screamed she needed help and got cut off. That doesn't sound like a nosebleed unless he somehow busted something major in his nose.
Then here comes Clay running to Rhetta and saying he's lost the damned dog, you know, the one that's bigger than Grace. Rhetta doesn't want poor upset Grace to know about the dog (WHY are they so protective over her, that's why she can't mature) so she goes off with Clay to look for him. Clay's afraid Grace will be mad and he's mad at her because he found out she was semi at fault for his mother's death. One day this kid's going to be a teenager and he's going to tell off Aunt Grace, you wait and see.
Clay and Rhetta run into Earl with his own dog (ghost dog or did he borrow him or what?) and talk about Grace's missing dog.
The investiggation stalls and then Grace drops everything when Rhetta and Clay drag in and admit they can't find the dog. In no time flat she's putting up Gus posters all ovver town...maybe she should've had some made of missing Paul and missing Paul's girlfriend too.
Earl shows up telling Grace she should ask for God's help but you know she's not finished wallowing in pity and of course Rhetta comes along to baby her. The rest of the cops are still WORKING though of course they can't keep their minds off poor Grace.
Rhetta tells Grace why Clay's pissed at her and informs her bestest friend maybe she should talk to him about it. Ya think? Then they figure out in some stupid way that the man with the dog was Earl and Rhetta TOUCHED him. She squealed in happiness. Too bad Grace doesn't feel the same way, it would make Earl's work a lot easier.
Mom brings druggie Paul in who won't admit to anything. Finally super duper cop Grace talks him into telling the truth and he says they fought, girl's nose bled and she took off. Whine, whine, and he's ashamed of using dead daddy's money for his nasty little habits.
Grace and wifeless-Ham trace girl's route to her other boyfriend's house and sees where she hit a deer and ran off the road, and she's alive and poor little Paulie didn't do anything. Except shove coke up his nose and lie to the cops.
Back home, Earl shows up to comfort but gets slapped for his trouble as Grace throws a humungous temper tantrum and crawls onto the dog's bed, kicking and screaming. I thought nothing could be grosser than the food thing but I was WRONG. A grown woman throwing a hissy fit and lying in a doggy bed topped it. Grace...you have nowhere to go but up, that was beyond the bottom.
Later, and hopefully after a shower, Grace and Clay find each other and say sorry. But all's well since friend patrol officer and crazy lady have found Gussie.
Why do I watch this show? I don't like her. Am I hoping I'm wrong and she'll one day have the backbone to be a mature woman and stop making a mess of everything around her? Am I hoping she'll get punished for her antics?
