The third last episode of the final season, unless they
find some way to get renewed on another network. Hondo
and Deke help Hondo's cousin who has allegedly murdered
someone during Marine boot camp. Alfaro's mother's old
boyfriend - the one who used to beat on her - hits her
again and Alfaro sets out to do what he couldn't do
when he was just a kid; he gets an assist from Tan.
Hicks' daughter is apparently dating Rocker and Hicks
is *not* pleased and communicates this displeasure to
everyone involved and 20 Squad. I noticed that this
episode was directed by Alex Russell, who played Jim
Street in the first 6 seasons.

I hadn't seen this in a while and was in the mood for a
Western so I put it on. The Man With No Name arrives in
a small town controlled by two rival gangs and works to
liberate the town from them.

This movie is mentioned in the book "Driving Marilyn" I
posted about today.
 
Nyssa, who is surprised at the mention of the movie here

Say, I found that our library has Berlin Noir and several
other titles by Kerr. I began reading it, and like it
pretty well. Always like a snarky detective.

 
Graham Kerr?
 
 
Was surprised to find out he is still around at 91 years
old.

Yes, surprising, isn't it? After all those huge "slurps"
of wine he took on the show. Smoker too, IIRC.

But he changed his ways after his wife, Trina, had a heart
attack and went for more healthful recipes and eating styles.

Nyssa, who was at the filming of several of Graham Kerr's
cooking shows in Ottawa in the CBC studio on Marivale Road
'way back in the 1970s....one of the recipes he did then
was <gulp> frogs' legs <ick>
