Episode 104
Crazy Little Thing Called Love (02-11-07)
Guess what? I'm going to be short and sweet today!
I know, I know! You didn't believe I could
actually write a short review :) Occasionally it
happens. Just don't expect it too often.
Okay I'll quit rambling and let you read.
Fun filler episode. There are always going to be a few
of those in a season. I don’t mind them. They’re not
going to make a huge impact on us, but they do
entertain, and that’s perfectly fine with me.
I
had no clue what this episode was going to be about. I
hadn’t even read the episode description—that’s just how
busy my life has been. Anyway, I went into the episode
blind and was pleasantly surprised.
I
actually liked the case. I wasn’t sure who the guilty
party was. I knew it had to be either, the other boxer,
the wife or Mickey. However the way the information was
presented I was never sure just who was guilty until
Mickey was found dead.
Jordan and Woody—this is what makes shipper fans happy.
Yes they want more but this type interaction will keep
the shippers content for the moment. This was more of
the old CJ that was fun, playful and gave you hope that
a happy ending is in sight for Jordan and Woody. Me I’m
no longer in either boat, get together or not, either
way is fine with me, but watching Jordan and Woody
tonight was fun. More fun than last season’s turmoil.
What is up with the Alpha Male Syndrome? Danny and
Woody (more so Woody) are quite childish at times (much
to our amusement). Danny tries to be a bit more adult
about it, but he still eggs Woody on.
Side
Note:
I’m so glad NBC posted the deleted scene because after
the episode aired I couldn’t figure out for the life of
me how the two episodes (CJ and Las Vegas) connected.
Bug and Lily confuse me. I’ve never really been a fan
of that match up, but I see how they fit together
well…that said I can’t figure out where the two of them
are heading. Lily doesn’t tell Jeffery she’s
pregnant. Bug thinks Jeffery knows. Bug gives
Lily space. Lily doesn’t want space.
Lily wants Bug but Lily’s having Jeffery’s baby.
Bug decides he doesn’t want Lily right now.
Is
your head spinning yet? I’ve come to the conclusion
there are too many ‘doesn’t wants’ in their
relationship. They need to figure out what they want—then
maybe things will work out for them. Right now, they’re
just on two different pages…
I
do like how the CJ cases relate back to personal issues
in the characters lives. I’ve noticed more and more,
that each case will relate to certain issues that each
character is dealing with.
Music—I love CJ and its music. Flashdance made me
laugh. It’s always a fun moment when a few strands of
music tie into the episode and at the same time bring
back memories of the 80s :)
My
one disappointment—we didn’t get to see the aftermath of
Lu’s death. I know we jumped a month in time (and I
believe in the next episode we jump again in time). I
know the writers NEEDED to jump in time; however I’m
still disappointed we didn’t see any sort of
emotion/mourning from our characters.
