(Season 1, Episode 9 – “Flame Red”) ” “ – Jane, to victim’s daughter, who’s wearing headphones Patrick Jane can be a real wiseass. He’s not even cop — or whatever the people who work for the fake law enforcement agency CBI are — and he just makes incredibly goofy comments to victims’ family members, […]
(Season 13, Episode 10 – “You’re Gonna Get Me Killed”) I’ll give credit to those dumb frat boys because they didn’t have the week’s dumbest move. That would be reserved for Dallas. We’ve known pretty much all season that Dallas is a bit of a dim bulb at times. Sure, Starr thinks he’s cute and […]

(Season 2, Episode 9 – “The White Asparagus Triangulation”) In last week’s review I mentioned I wasn’t too keen on the new character introduced as Leonard’s latest love interest. I went on to say I hoped she wouldn’t be a recurring character. I shouldn’t say these things. I just jinx it all to heck, don’t […]
