But I think the Glenn Close decision was a horrible one and
the show is suffering in part from it. Everytime she is on the
screen, I wonder what her purpose is besides her first and
last name on the credits. Just not very convincing to me in
terms of the authority and clash of power her character is
supposed to provide for the show. And I know this is a minor
detail and I guess reading theses boards for the two or so
years its been in existance made me more perceptive of this
kind of stuff, but it bothered me that she chose to wear
shades during the scene when she had to sign off on taking the
house. Weak job on hiding her eyes in what was an important
scene. And to further nitpick, it seems her face is only able
to do that inappropiate half smile I noticed in past episodes
and the stone wall non-emotive crap she did when the evicted
mother came in her face. Overall, the show feels very
disjointed and rushed together. I'm wondering how the writers
will incorporate the private lives of the various police onto
the show at the rate things are going so far. I guess I will
still watch this show since I hardly watch TV in general and
need something to entertain me aside from video games and
DVDs.

 The one positive aspect to last night's show of course was
the rap/skin DVD. Very funny stuff.
