NO#1- Under the Gun--Marty's "I told you so attitude" Rub a Tub++for Karen backing Jim's cologne theory even though she wasn't thrilled Doggone++Sonny's "smell me!"
Doggone - 47 Pilot - 41 Up on the Roof - 35 Marlon's Brando - 27 Dance With Me - 25 Seoul Man - 23 In Your Face-19 Under the Gun - 15 Four Feet Under-11 Fancy Footwork - 11 Past Imperfect - 9 Rub a Tub Tub - 3
Cancelled episodes:
1. Leap of Faith--this is very fortuitous, as I just watched this one last night! I would change Jim beating up scumbag Doyle. That is just wrong, and I'm sure now his confession won't stand up in court anyway. I would have it where the threat of the neighbor child testifying, and Jim being threatening without actually doing anything, is enough to make him confess to the one crime. Then, when it goes to trial, the publicity causes many other children to be willing to testify against him and the guy goes to jail for life. Also, I'd have Hank smell something interesting in the garbage, leading Karen to discover the claim check in the apartment, a bit of a star role for Hank. Finally, I would have drawn out the ethical debate of the cops around the claim ticket a bit more, that was the best part of this episode for me and one of the most interesting scenes in the entire series.[/quote]

From Shmeep's Character Survival Game:
1--Time for rule change!!!!
From now on, you may only issue 1 + vote at a time, but you are still able to issue 2 -- votes. Don't worry. The game will still go on plenty long, but it will start to be easier to kill people off. You knew it had to come eventually.
I like this new rule, let's do it here too.

Up on the Roof++for Jim visiting Terry in the hospital instead of sending someone else to get the answers he needed Dance with Me--because Vic failed to see that Meg was a wit's end with Sylvia Past Imperfect--Letitia's equally witless and clueless co-worker

OK I said I wouldn't kill anybody else, but I didn't say I wouldn't cancel an episode.
Rub a Tub Tub-- Marybeth, trying to get away with murder. How could she have gotten 3 men? The Pilot ++ Beautiful from start to finish Fancy Footwork-- Too much dancing and too much sunglass wearing.
Doggone - 47 Pilot - 43 Up on the Roof - 37 Marlon's Brando - 27 Dance With Me - 27 Seoul Man - 21 In Your Face-19 Under the Gun - 11 Four Feet Under-11 Fancy Footwork - 9 Past Imperfect - 9
Cancelled episodes: 1)Leap of Faith 2)Rub a Tub Tub Marybeth and Eric made this one of my least favorite episodes "I get it, it just cops looking out for cops." yuck Marybeth. And I always feel a little uncomfortable watching Marty and Jim in the locker room with the bell conversation. Much too mean, even for Marty. And talk about close talkers. Back up. I do however really like the end of this episode with Jim trying to regain Christies trust. I love the Mulligan analogy, and love when she says "It was worth it, You're worth it. " and Jim saying "I'm not that person anymore." Nice. And the session with Galloway, chocolate chip cookies, also nice. So why did I cancel it? I'm confused. But too late, I already did.

Past Imperfect--for Ty Largent's lawyer, just the sort of behaviour we expect from lawyers (apologies to any lawyers on this board!) Fancy Footwork--for Bo Matheson focusing on Jim as a just a blind guy In Your Face++Jim playing chess

#2 for today: Fancy Footwork--to get it down for someone who wants to rewrite it Past Imperfect--ditto. I know there are lots of writers out there! Under the Gun--I thought the whole crime part of this episode was very confusing, I found it hard to keep everyone and the plot straight (maybe I'm just dumb who knows) Doggone - 47 Pilot - 43 Up on the Roof - 37 Marlon's Brando - 27 Dance With Me - 27 Seoul Man - 21 In Your Face-21 Four Feet Under-11 Under the Gun - 9 Fancy Footwork - 5 Past Imperfect - 5

I'm not playing by myself here am I? That's no fun. I was the last person to play this! There are way better writers out there than me, who I'm sure have excellent changes to the episodes (have I buttered everyone up now? ) Past Imperfect -- Greg wasting Jim's work time when he wasn't even mugged Fancy Footwork -- last episode, that can never be forgiven! Marlon's Brando -- Nazi symbols and ideology Doggone - 47 Pilot - 43 Up on the Roof - 37 Dance With Me - 27 Marlon's Brando - 25 Seoul Man - 21 In Your Face-21 Four Feet Under-11 Under the Gun - 9 Fancy Footwork - 3 Past Imperfect - 3
