sff: other tvs, the it is really saturday morning edition
Motive 1x9: SURPRISE ALESSANDRO JULIANI. Otherwise, a solid episode. (Angiiiieeee. sigh. she is hot and amazing)
Elementary 1x19: MS. HUDSON. I didn't even think that they'd ever bring her in, and THERE SHE IS. (and apparently, she's trans?) PAM was amazing, too. And I liked the silliness of the mystery. Mostly, though, I liked Jooooan and Sherlock's investigation. Though I sort of wish Joan had had more discoveries? BUT ON THAT NOTE. Unf, Detective Bell. With his smarts and his brains. So hot. AND THE SNOW. so silly, but fun
Person of Interest 2x19: Sometimes, I wish I liked m/m slash. Because then I could happily read all the fic in this fandom. But I don't. Instead, I like f/f and het, and there is NO WAY that this fandom will actually produce the reams of Root/Sam Shaw fi that it would write if they were dudes. SAM SHAW IS GOING HUNTING ROOT. That is like a gift from the gods in terms of setups.
Meanwhile, I want to feel more surprised about Beecher, but I can't. His whole arc feels sort of pointless. Although now Carter has 'lost' someone close to her. Now Fusco just needs to have a loss...
I really liked Monica, too. And I hope that they bring her back as a recurring tech helper.
Scott & Bailey 3x1: way to make me not want to go to bed yet, show. Ew. But aside from that one bit of shock-factor, I really liked how the show dealt with the aspects of Nicola Walker's character. It made me a little sick to my stomach, because it wasn't "Let's parade all the abuse in words and flashbacks" it was all in body language and tone, and the silences. and ugh.
And Janet's face at the end, that little SMIRK, holy shit, Janet. <3
Although I'm not sure how I feel about suddenly-married Rachel (although Janet's mum telling her she needs a wife, and Rachel being all "can I bunk with you?" at Janet made me ship it still). Hopefully, even though I've no real interest in Dom, the next episode will deal with that lurking cess pool of stupid, not to mention Rachel's random marriage.

Oh, Beecher. I think the writers flubbed more than a bit with him. I wanted to like him, and to feel something about his death, but...
Monica was great. She and Shaw should have a women-only PoI spinoff. (This is not my original idea, but I endorse it.)

Instead, I will think happy thoughts about the episode being a sneaky backdoor pilot where Monica will have her own spinoff with Shaw and possibly Root along for the ride.
