I dug the opening with Shore and Tara dressed up as Batman and Robin for Halloween.

The 3 cases were not too interesting, but all the characer bits in between were fun. Shore's already move on from Sally and hitting on Tara once again.

The glass eye gag happening twice was also unexpected, but Lori's reaction to each instance garnered a chuckle from me.

Denny seems to think he does have Alzheimer's, so he is going to get tested.

The scenes in court are definitely the least interesting parts of the show.

"Mr. Crane I'm not following your arguement"

"That's because you're a moron"

I agree about the court scenes, unless it's Denny in there, they're pretty boring.

That's what I meant - Denny certainly make them a bit more interesting.

I about choked on my drink when the mom's glass eye popped out of her head. The second time in court was even better!
Shore and Tara was hilarious at the start of the show...that's not how I remember Robin looking! LOL
I hope they don't make Denny have Alzheimer's, he's funny the way he is. I don't wanna see dramatic acting from Shatner, I want him to bring the funny!!

Did Denny call his friend the judge "a greedy wop"? And then he said he was going to get back at him by sleeping w/ his wife. I liked when they were hauling him off to jail after being "in contempt" and he asked if the wife was going to be there.

I like seeing Tara in the Robin costume. Hopefully, Tara appealing to the naughty side of Alan will bring a lot more of this type of debauchery.

When Denny got hauled off to jail, didn't he ask about Martha Stewart?

Too bad Rhona didn't show up in her old Tomb Raider costume (She was one of the early live-action models for Lara Croft, if not the first one, I can't remember).

Yeah, he requested to share a cell with Ms. Stewart.

Probably so they can pay him less money. I'll always think of him as Clayton Endicott from Benson. Heck, they could have just taken that same character and plugged him in here.

I haven't seen Benson since I was a little lad, but I still remember him from it for some reason. It doesn't seem like he has aged much to me.

He hasn't. He looked old on Benson (he was in his early 40s). He now looks pretty good for 64.

God I love coming here. It's so nice to know that I'm not the only one with these random associations in my head, and that there are others whose minds are filled with random effluvium caused by years of tv watching.

"Sally's a little raw right now, so you might not want to -- "

"EAT HER!?"

I love the wackiness that goes on in that building.
