Tonight’s the season premiere of Major Crimes, and I’m so excited, given how last season ended. Phillip Stroh was back and in the process of signing a plea agreement, in which he would give up the names and locations of other victims, but I knew from the beginning of that story arc that something was hinky. The judge who was presiding over it was an old acquaintance of Stroh’s, so he wasn’t leery enough of the bad guy…and Stroh took advantage of that. Over the course of several visits, he kept dropping his pen (using the excuse of his handcuffed hands for the fumbling), requiring the judge to come around his desk and kneel down next to Stroh. But in the season finale, using the same “drop the pen” act, he killed the judge and escaped before anyone was the wiser. They got a manhunt going as soon as they figured it out, but they were unable to find him. That means Rusty is vulnerable once more. Speaking of Rusty… He’s turned into a great kid, and I really love his character.

Other notes about last season: Sharon and Finn seem to be dating without realizing it. Sharon finally divorced her ex, and then she formally adopted Rusty. Sanchez was nearly fired after his mother’s caretaker — who Sanchez realized was stealing from her and leaving her alone — was killed…after Sanchez beat the crap out of the guy. Instead, he was suspended and ordered to get help for his anger issues, and one of the things he decided was he would move home and be able to help with his mother more. And finally, although the SOB spinoff isn’t happening, Fritz Howard will be back during the new season.

On tonight’s episode, “A Rose is a Rose,” the squad investigates a double homicide related to an ongoing string of home invasions in the Hollywood Hills. Meanwhile, Sanchez attempts to reintegrate himself in the division after his suspension over a questionable use of force, while Captain Raydor makes a fateful choice in the life of her adopted son, Rusty.

Catch the drama and fun tonight on TNT at 9/8c.

Ahh, Monday, my old friend. To celebrate the start of the work week, there’s some great stuff on tonight. Kyle had some issues with his water heater, so he didn’t have time to write up anything, but never fear…Megan and I are here. 😉 Check out what we’re recommending.

Last week’s Major Crimes was a great one. To start off with, the case was excellent. A convicted rapist and killer who got paroled turned up at the station and said that even though he admitted in court to being the killer, he wasn’t actually the guy who’d killed the teenage girl years before. The cops weren’t taking him very seriously…until he himself got murdered. When they started looking into it further, things started falling apart and then falling into place. It turned out the killer was actually the witness against him during his trial—the guy who had a crush on the victim and was upset because she was with the other guy. All around, it was horribly sad. Then on the personal front, poor Rusty learned that his mom lied to him about the prescription she asked him to fill for her before she got out of rehab to go to the halfway house. He had Sharon find out info on it, and it was a medicine that drug addicts used to help get high. When he confronted her, his mother screamed at him, blaming her drug use on him being a bad kid, and said she’d accepted the fact that he was gay, so he should be able to accept her faults. It was heartbreaking to watch. 🙁

On tonight’s episode, “Do Not Disturb,” when a foreigner is found murdered inside his hotel room, the squad must work quickly to find the killer while avoiding any international repercussions when a U.S. diplomat becomes involved in the case. While everyone is busy with the case, Rusty tries to figure out how to share a big secret with the squad.

Find out what secret Rusty wants to share tonight on TNT at 9/8c.
