There were no scenes together for Jamie and Eddie outside of family dinner, but with each of them having such strong storylines, it's difficult to be disappointed. The Jamie and Joe story took us on an emotional journey; comparing Joe to his dad in that way hit hard. But a couple of short sharp action... Continue Reading →
12×11 On The Arm
Danny pursues Dickie Delaney (Jimmy Buffett), a con artist pretending to be the legendary singer Jimmy Buffett, after he’s tricked into paying for the scammer’s meal at an expensive restaurant. Also, Frank investigates NYPD Captain Terrell (Regina Taylor), who is using her badge to get free wares from local stores; Erin worries about her reputation... Continue Reading →
So it was a seemingly random decision by Jamie to implement the rule, but it definitely proved its purpose. A tough time for Jamie and especially Eddie, but the look of pride in the final scene was great to see. Maybe felt a little like Authority Figures as Jamie had to prove himself, but it worked. And...

Jamie's story was true to his character; he's never going to choose the easy path. Sid should've already realised he's like his dad. Eddie only appeared briefly, but we saw different aspects of Jamie and Eddie's relationship: providing work support and advice, then more personal later on. It got very personal during the conversation at... Continue Reading →

What I love about Jamie and Eddie is how much they always care, wanting to fix every problem at home and at work. Both of Jamie and Eddie's storylines challenged them, and together they found solutions. I hope there is a continuation of Baez's storyline; it echoed a lot of what she said in Triumph Over...

12×08 Reality Check
Danny partners with Anthony to solve a double homicide when Anthony’s shady cousin, Joey (Anthony DeSando), proves to have gang ties to the crime. Also, the boundary between Eddie and Jamie’s work and personal relationship is strained when Eddie and her new partner, Badillo (Ian Quinlan), ask Jamie to reassign them to different partners, and... Continue Reading →
Badillo's issue was what I was expecting. His need to keep making it personal showed his desperation. It was such wonderful use of Jamie and Eddie's history to address the problem and another example of why Jamie is a great boss. Anthony and Danny's story was lightweight fun with a dash of action. Was anyone... Continue Reading →
