After viewing tonight’s episode of Monk, it will only leave us with two episodes left in the series. But at least it appears that we can now start calling Adrian “Detective” Monk. That’s because tonight’s teaser starts with Stottlemeyer and Disher presenting Monk with his new (old) badge.

No need to keep your eyes peeled for The Observer in this episode: Mr. No-Eyebrows is everywhere… and he’s not the only Observer in the lovely city of Boston. Oh, whatever will Fringe Division do?

First off, I do not endorse or support the infliction of childhood trauma. Unless it’s funny.
A cartoon character with big googly eyes is funny.
A doll of that cartoon character with big googly eyes, dancing incessantly and annoying the hell out of everyone over the age of seven is funnier.
But a life-size representation of that cartoon character with big googly eyes, brandishing a meat cleaver in an attempt to get a child to stop playing with a doll of that cartoon character with big googly eyes, dancing incessantly and annoying the hell out of everyone over the age of seven? Comic gold.

Warning: Do not try this at home.
Best episode of the season so far. Whenever a character uses the word “Foolproof”, you can start laughing as soon as you’re done with the “uh-oh”. You know where things are headed.

Rigsby and Grace both get calls from Lisbon to meet them at a crime scene, with no knowledge that the two are actually in the same place. Together. Oh sweet irony, you are sweet. Jane is already on the scene, when he also gets a call from Bosco. He wants to see him as soon as he gets in from the crime scene, which is a little cryptic. The body at the scene is a little grotesquely posed — leaning against the base of a statue, naked, with some yellow roses artfully arranged around the body areas that would make the FCC cry. They return to the office and enter with Rebecca who’s gone to fetch coffee, and they find Bosco and his team dead. Now THAT is what I call an opening!

Although it wasn’t as astronomically great as last weeks episode, this one was still a doozy. With another Hidden Immunity Idol back in play… it’s anybody’s game. Or is it?

Straight from Walton’s Mountain, we bring you Booth’s grandfather, Hank. Ralph Waite was our guest this week, as he played what Booth calls “Pops”. Pops is out of the retirement home after a bit of surgery and slugging a male nurse, and is going to stay with Booth (or as Pops calls him, Shrimp). Pops is the one that raised Booth and his brother when his father walked out on them.

Bear with me, “Vampire Diaries” fans. Tonight’s episode was a bit of a blur. Also, slightly more ridiculous than usual. If you recall last week’s episode, Logan Fell, Cool Aunt Jenna’s ex-boyfriend who Damon killed, shows up on her doorstep asking to be let in. This episode picks up exactly where we left off, with Aunt Jenna refusing to invite Logan in, and Logan burning some of his frustration by killing an unsuspecting woman who makes the bad mistake of trying to flirt with a hungry vampire.

Let’s continue our tradition of airing episodes out of order, shall we? This week, our fifth episode is actually Episode 104. And Achmed tells us Jeff let him borrow his Hummer to move a futon into his cave.
We open with Sweet Daddy D, who claims he doesn’t understand white people and their love of camping. Personally, I don’t understand camping either. But he decides to take this one step further by going to a Civil War re-enactment. This has the possibility to offend everyone.

We’re getting down to the wire, and Carol Hannah is still not well. Poor girl, but it’s time to pull through. Everyone’s losing it a bit under the stress, but at least they have helpers to get them through this.
