  • Fair criticism! I don’t really care about the super logic bit (I’ve seen enough of that on Sherlock, Elementary, Psych, Monk, to a lesser extent White Collar, Bones, etc) that I just move over that as a cost of the genre. Sure, genius finds genius clue, plot progresses. It would be nice if they tightened it up as you suggest.

    The novel interest this show has is that for the most part, they not only trust each other but don’t keep secrets when it would be cliche that they would and that Morgan is genuinely trying to improve her relationship with her kids and ex.

    This all reminds me of a conversation in Star Trek Deep Space 9. Season 5 episode 20

    For context Quark is talking with his mother Ishka about the qualities that the leader, the Nagus, of their hyper capitalist society should have.

    Quark: Of course not. He was willing to throw our entire economy into chaos just so he could grab power.

    Ishka: Sounds like a true Ferengi to me.

    Quark: A Ferengi, maybe, but not a Nagus. A Nagus has to be better than that. His personal greed has to reflect the public’s greed.
