CBI begins investigating the murder of a man found caught in the roots of a tree who worked as a shift manager at an arcade in a town north of where his body was found. The boss is helpful, giving the name Ed Deidrichsen and describing him as a quiet, married man. When Ed failed to show up for work and he called Ed’s house, the wife answered and sounded upset when she told him that he was away on a family emergency. Obviously there is nothing strange going on here.

Are the Doctors Still In?

Braff, Chalke, McGinley

ABC is in talks to renew the veteran comedy Scrubs for a ninth season. This year, the producers had been looking for a way to keep the show going with new cast members, integrating a new crop of interns, but have yet to confirm if Season Nine is set in stone.

With most original cast members moving on to other projects (Donald Faison, John C. McGinley and Neil Flynn, are co-starring on different pilots), it is had to say what characters will be returning full-time, or perhaps in recurring roles.

I never thought I would say this — after all, it’s been a long time since I de-boarded his bandwagon — but Danny Gokey may have pulled off the best performance last night.

Other than that, it was kind of a sleepy night of ballads for Rat Pack Week. The contestants all dressed up in suits and even Allison Iraheta had on a party dress. Anyone notice that Ryan and Kris Allen were almost twins with the same tone gray suit, white shirt and dark tie (only Ryan’s was black while Kris sported blue)? Guess no one else got the memo…

It was inevitable. Despite their shared Judaism and love for the Large Hadron Collider, Leslie Winkle has decided to dump Howard.

Of course, they weren’t actually going out, they were only “friends with benefits” – a situation Sheldon doesn’t quite understand. The boys operationally define it for him as maintaining a friendship with someone you have sex with while having the freedom to date, though he still can’t grasp the idea.
