Numb3rs 4x13: Black Swan

You know, is it just me or was there something really off about this episode? Was it the story? Didn't the actors click right? I don't know but it just didn't feel like the usual ep. Even the action was... slower, lazier.

I liked Don bending the rules. I liked Charlie all excited about black boards. I think even Amita is starting to grow on me. I liked Larry and Megan...

But for me, this episode's stars were definitely Colby and David. I loved the scene with them sitting in the car and having nothing to talk about. It felt like a really awkward date XD And Colby climbing up the trelis... "Yeah. Colby, go down the elevator shaft. Colby, jump in the bay. Hey, Colby, climb the Sixth Street Bridge." That was really cute!

So all in all, it was good but not great. A decent episode but definitely not among their better ones.

BTW - ratings for this episode on Friday, April 4th: 10 mil. viewers in final numbers.

And new NCIS tonight - tomorrow for me, hopefully! *bounces*

I did love those Colby lines! But the ep was kind of off... I think there was just too much confused frustration - I got confused and frustrated too!

Exactly. And I didn't even know WHY they were all so frustrated. I mean, it wasn't like Don planted evidence or something. He had a well-founded suspicion that yes, the guy could be a terrorist. Sheesh!

But Colby, my Colby, how I love thee! *snuggles the boy* And when I remember that I disliked his character in the very beginning... *dead*

I think, what rubbed me wrong, was the lack of Charlie and Don. They didn't even have one scene together until about halfway through, and I love them together.

Yes! You know, sometimes it really feels like they aren't even brothers anymore! On the other hand, maybe SPN just spoiled me XP
