Why did the network choose to air two hours of reruns versus airing a new episode.
ReplyDeleteThis one sounds very emotional
The bad news we get more potential wooden acting from Harry Connick Jr.
ReplyDeleteThe good news, it sounds like the kids in the preview aren't his.
Also good news, Munch is back, and Michael Cutter returns. And it doesn't sound like he's going to be watching over Cabot or Novak in this episode. Which gives me hope that we might get some court room scenes.
@Nygma519- You have no idea how his acting will be like, based on the first episode that he appeared in.
ReplyDeleteIt was just his first episode, c'mon you think that Mariska was good in the very first episode. Don't get me wrong, she's a terrific actress but she was trying to see what would work and not work for her character . Actors/actress have to adjust to their roles.
You can't put down HCJ's acting until you see more episodes then decide
I've seen HCJ in other projects besides this, there's only been ONE acting performance of his (outside of broadway) that I've enjoyed. That was "The Iron Giant". Why? Because it only required his voice. It didn't require things like facial expressions or body language, things he failed horribly @.
