The cases on this weeks episode of Detroit 1-8-7 focus on a woman beaten to death, this casting suspicion on everyone associated with her boxer boyfriend; and a cold case of a man whose death has been unexplained for five years.

Also, you may remember Jess Harkins, the FBI agent assigned to investigate Fitch. Remember how she said she had no reason to stick around? Not so much. Apparently the FBI wants to know what will happen in Detroit with Malloy dead.

Ahh, love is in the air with the Glee club… And of course, when I say love I mostly mean infatuation, because who can keep up with who these crazy kids are dating these days?

The most recent new flame is Puck’s feelings for Lauren, the newest female member of the Glee club. Though it seemed to come a little out of left field at first, the more I saw of it the more it grew on me.

Parenthood
Just Go Home

What makes a home? Is it home just because you live there?  Is it home because you were raised there? Or does it require more than that?  Respect? Compromise? And where does forgiveness rate in a home?

Tonight’s episode centered on a singular theme of home, but told three stories in the process.  What happens when Sarah’s ex comes to town, Haddie might go back to her parent’s house, and Crosby is at a loss in his own home.  How did it all play out?

The Cape – Recap & Review – Goggles & Hicks

The Cape
Goggles & Hicks

Original Air Date: Jan 31, 2011

Rachel M – Staff Writer
rachelm@thetwocentscorp.com

A pair of super assassins, Goggles and Hicks are on the hunt. The current target is some guy in Afghanistan, where Hicks (guest star Chad Lindberg) has just snipered this guy. Goggles is the Orwell behind Hicks. A month later in Palm City, Fleming has a clandestine meeting in the desert with Goggles (guest star Pruitt Taylor Vince, who is in an electric chair). Their calling card is a tarot card of The Chariot. Fleming doesn’t get to meet Hicks who stays in the car because he kills the people he meets. Fleming gives them the job of killing The Cape, and Goggles is very skeptical of Fleming’s sanity.

Goggles works in a different way than Fleming likes to have things done, and since Vince has already beaten one of the Tarot people (what was the name of their organization again?) before.

Harry’s Law continues to not disappoint! It was so chock full of action and drama. I was on the edge of my seat all night waiting to see what would happen next and how things would turn out in the end!

We started tonight’s episode pretty much where we left off last week; with the budding romance between Chunhua and Adam. All is well between them, especially after the kiss they shared last week. They’re making plans for a romantic getaway, that is, until Chunhua is attacked and almost raped (if it hadn’t been for her father hearing her screams, she would have been)!

After a few weeks off, How I Met Your Mother came back with a fantastic episode, with a fantastic guest star. For the longest time, I haven’t been a fan of Katy Perry, but within recent weeks, I’ve grown to like her more and more and when I found out that she was going to be on How I Met Your Mother, I got so excited.

She did a wonderful job, and so did the writers of this episode.
