CBS Better Not Kill This Series

This is a good episode though I feel sorry for any Pharmaceutical company who would package their drugs this way. They deserve to get sued.

The episode does some good character interaction and sub-plots to go with the main plot in the title. Especially good is the one associate who is considering leaving Nick & company to work for the DA's office at the urging of her boyfriend.

Another good sub-plot is the Nick's secretary spying illegally on that associate. Think this plot might have some interesting development in shows ahead.

Jim Belushi seems to show strength interacting with everyone on the series and this is a plus that makes things interesting.

The question is, will CBS back this up after placing it on Friday nights where ratings for all shows are dismal? I think they should keep it going. This show proves they don't need big name guest stars in order to produce a good episode.

Watch Your Bottles ****

This was positively the best episode of this series. Keep this quality of episodes up, and the rumors of the show being canceled at the end of the season shall dissipate.

The episode deals with the tragedy that pursued when a pharmaceutical company gave the incorrect amount of medication for a dosage in its bottle.

Two people were affected by this error and one suffered brain damage, altering a very promising life.

The company, naturally, tries to get out of this by trying to blame the person for not properly reading the dosage bottle, but Nick comes up with an ingenious ploy to thwart their goals.
