I have fast forwarded through every episode this season except the DB Cooper one. The show has lost a lot of its appeal to me... EXCEPT... I absolutely LOVED the first episode, the terrorist threat, with Adam Baldwin. Dare I say, this show is better WITHOUT Nate and Morticia, uh, Sophie.

I only watched the first of the two episodes but I kinda agree. If they changed the show to where the three of them worked for Baldwin's character and had a new case each week, I think it may be better than it is now.

Loved the first episode. It was probably the best of the season. I'll get to the finale later.
Question: has this been renewed for another season?

as much as I loved the first episode, I loathed the summer finale. ugh. it's like two totally different shows. The earlier episode like a cool version of the Mod Squad, with the later episode playing out like a tired unused script for Hart to Hart.

I too am trying to figure out why I haven't enjoyed this season as much. Perhaps because there are less cons and more straight forward stories. I haven't seen all the episodes this summer though.

WOW, Monte Markman. I thought he retired years ago.
I haven't seen him in anything for 20-25 years. Last time was in ST:TNG.
Nice to see Monte back in action. One of my favorite 70's guest appearance actors.
I thought both episodes were nicely produce.
Looks like Christian Kane got a hair cut. He Looks way better with shorter hair.
It occur to me that Tim and Gina would make a good "Nick & Nora Charles".

I really enjoy this series one thing though that is kinda bugging me this year is there is no real sense of dread that they will get hurt or fail. Almost a little too fluffy this year. Can't really put my finger on it but something feels off.

Finally saw the finale and it was pretty good. I hope the writers get back to some of the issues from last season: why did they move to Portland (Nate said there was a reason), what is Nate planning, where's our big bad?

That 1st episode was fucking weird. The entire tone of the show was completely different. The characters were acting different. Even the dialogue was different. Having said that, it was a good episode.
