Wednesday Night Drama Night

The Mysteries of Laura "The Mystery of the Intoxicated Intern"

After a month off, it's great to see Laura and her gang back and solving crimes. This week's mystery goes from college frat to a social network business.

This episode is a great way to get back into after a month on break. It had just enough humor and drama and a twist to catch your attention.

Watching Laura speaking the tech-social language was just hilarious, along with Meredith, who seems to be the mean one of the bunch, showing her super nerdy side.

That also includes when Laura and her boyfriend will have their time together at the house, and the babysitter comes back twice. The second time was the charm, as it was a murder for her to take.

Many suspects go from the college frat club to having a wife who suspected her husband of cheating with colleagues at work. There were so many turns that it was the victim's assistant.

As I said before, this episode was utterly outstanding. Full of laughs, drama, and just more laughter. I'm enjoying the new character, Frankie. She has been nothing but amazingly funny and sweet. It's just the opposite of what Meredith is when you see them working together.

I believe that this show should be renewed for another season. It might not be a young demo ratings winner, but it does grab the appeal of significant viewers who love this kind of show. NBC doesn't need to do what they did with Harry's Law. That was the wrong thing to do. This show deserves to get a second season. It makes Woman Crush Wednesday something I sure can't miss each week.

You can catch The Mysteries of Laura on Wednesday nights at 8/7c on NBC

Chicago PD: "Say Her Real Name"

When doing an uncovered job, it's best to leave your side at the front door, right? This week's episode dealt with one member taking a murder a bit personally.

Ruzek goes undercover for a suitable group to make small bombs and protest a foreign leader visiting Chicago. When he meets with a young lady with whom he talks and gets to know her, it becomes an excellent, friendly relationship.

As Ruzek returns to the House, he gets a message from a friend to meet at a hotel. When he and Alarrivee, that same friend, falls and lands in the car.

Upset that Ruzek is, everyone helps to get this person who pushed her off the window. They even stopped the foreign leader to talk, but the FBI called in the way. After the first time, you know the second time is the charm. Voight and Al talk to the guy at a local cop joint. They talk and soon find a bit of leverage that has him a bit of a video with him and the victim. 

Things go from one hill to the other, but as things continue, they find the guy who she was with at the time of her falling. They question him, and with Ruzek in the room, I've never seen him this upset or this intense. He was correcting the suspect on her name and slapping him as he told him that her name was this and not that. 

The suspect confesses, and soon Ruzek is in the locker room and apologizes to Burgess for the next few days and the way shown the last couple of days with this case. It did affect him quite a bit.

It was another great episode with an officer mixing personal and professional relationships. Next week's episode will deal with one man and one man only, Voight, as his card was found in a drug bust, and now he's on the hunt to clear his name.

You can catch Chicago PD on Wednesday nights at 10/9c on NBC.
