I was catching up on this season’s 24 - I’m way behind - and there was a brief scene that made me think “The guys from C.S.I. would know how to solve that problem.” You know, instead of Bauer torturing someone to find out where they’d been and what they were up to, the C.S.I. guys run a few tests and say, “He’s been here, he was doing this.”
I know, I know, the lab tests take a while to process and, as Jack would say, “We just don’t have the time!”, but still, they should call the C.S.I. guys.
What other shows could solve everyone’s problems by merging?
The Suite Life on Deck and Lost.
I hate the kids on that show, and hopefully the others can take them all to the temple and otherize them beyond recognition.
House figures out that Monk’s phobias are the result of an undiagnosed physiological condition, and cures him of it (after almost killing him a few times, of course).
Meanwhile, despite being drugged, probed, scanned and prodded in multiple ways, Monk observes everything happening around him, and solves Kutner’s murder without leaving his bed.
In the final scene (mercifully this time, not a musical montage) House and Monk trade insightful and embarrassing observations about Natalie and Wilson, who are in the room and have begun dating.
