Ripped From The Year-Old Headlines...Law & Order LA Does Tiger

From Lynn Elber of the AP.

The plot on Wednesday's show includes a philandering golf star and his club-wielding wife. When police arrive, the bleeding athlete says his spouse was merely attempting to rescue him - in this case, from their swimming pool rather than a wrecked car.

After Woods' November 2009 car crash, he acknowledged a string of infidelities and his marriage to Elin Nordegren unraveled. The NBC crime drama goes in a very different direction, with detectives investigating the murder of a female golf pro.

Sounds more like a Big Break episode gone awry!

Stay klassy, L&O.
The fine folks at New Media must drive you nuts:

Better acting to boot.

Is this an admission that you watch Big BreaK? I would imagine that there are more than a few closet Big Break watchers that follow your blog. Not that I personally would stoop that low: watching semi-talented, attractive women hit golf shots and cat fight......
If I just say that I think Brian will go postal and be on the news, and that Sara has the best butt in golf, would that give me away?

Best butt?? have you seen her chest? Not that I watch the show or anything...

PA,

she is the girl next door in a perfect world, with a great smile, pleasing funny personality, great from her hair on down.


Probably.

If I have actually watched.

Oh, heck....it was a very compelling show....I am NOT violent, but I would not have minded if the guys took a 9 iron to Brian, who may be the most insane person I have ever seen, that was not locked up.

I saw the trailer / preview for this episode the other day. The best part was the announcer saying, "Oh yeah, we're going there!"

I attempted to watch my dvri'ng of the L&A but , as was said, it seemed like an SNL parody, and evytime that scene changing sound came , I broke up laffing......other than golf, if it ever got related to TW, im not sure how.

On the other hand , Psyche was a goofy tribute show to Twin Peaks and was a hoot.

Psych was great the other night. Dual Spires. Heh.
