- 00:42:44: I am slightly disappointed in the drop in comic prices. It means no more "Nomad" to follow "Captain America." It was SO GOOD.
- 02:58:40: Trying out L&O: LA on hulu. Seeing as it's the reason my beloved L&O got shitcanned, it's got big shoes to fill.
- 03:02:10: 15 seconds in: Dear L&O: LA. You are L&O. You do NOT have untz-untz music as your theme. EVER.
- 03:05:57: Credit where it's due: L&O: LA maintains the brand's reputation for putting exposition in natural places.
- 03:06:08: Also, the untz-untz wasn't the theme, it turns out. But STILL.
- 03:15:32: 10 minutes in and I don't hate it. The lighting is all funky, though. Do I blame the pilot or the fact that it's not shot like original L&O?
- 03:22:36: At the 13 minute mark. Do these boys have a lietuenant? A captain? Or do they work from their garage like Encyclopedia Brown?
- 03:28:56: Hey, Bald Detective whose name I don't yet know: "It's LA. Everyone." Is only a line you can get away with if you're Lennie.
- 03:29:12: (cont.) I knew Lennie. I watched Lennie. You, sir, are no Lennie.
- 03:40:32: Dear L&O LA: Please don't say "Hummers." You are not that hip.
- 03:55:05: The actual L&O: LA credits' music (played at the end of the pilot) is pretty good. A nice remix.
- 03:59:06: So, apparently L&O: LA's thing is to lead in with music I don't like rather than, say, have a freaking theme.
- 04:08:53: Um, L&O: LA, if you're gonna do a Manson Family rip-off, don't mention the Manson family, okay?
- 04:24:28: Okay, L&O: LA, I will admit minor bias because of hulu. The synopsis it gave was lame. The actual twist is solid.
- 04:27:54: HI TERRENCE HOWARD. First Alfred Molina, then you. Is the D.A.'s office just gonna rotate actors I like? That'd be kind of cool.
- 04:29:53: I swear L&O: LA just named a character Abner Featherstone. Oh, L&O: LA, you just won 5 points.
- 04:30:51: OH MY GOD YOU GUYS. Abner is SPOT ON. Seriously.
- 04:34:43: Peter Coyote, you're staring to look like James Spader. This is a compliment (and you were good looking before, as well.)
- 04:36:54: "That doesn't sound like good law to me." / "It's not. It's good politics." -- All right, L&O: LA, you've won me over.
- 04:40:39: Now THERE'S the twist I was waiting for. Good job, L&O LA
- 04:45:16: Oh, Terrence Howard, you channeled Jack. That is AWESOME.
- 04:55:05: I think I like Skeet and Teri as a couple. There's a good vibe.
- 04:55:53: For the latecomers: I watched the first two episodes of L&O: LA. Final verdict: I'll keep watching, if only to figure out the DA trick.
- 05:00:33: WAIT A FUCKING SECOND. L&O got canned for bad rating, and NBC put L&O: LA in the WENSDAY 9 TIMESLOT? Not on, you fuckers. NOT ON.
- 05:17:05: Further thoughts on NBC being pricks, re: L&O Original: http://bit.ly/cW6O96
- 23:38:02: I actually wrote on a long story last night! Yay!
