Wow, I thought this episode was so much better than the previous ones.
I found it more exciting: the scene with the judge in the elevator, Jimmy's fear for his family.
And then, Kathryn's sadness when she lost, God she's so good.
I also loved the funny scenes, Kathryn with Chad, and all the things she did for her neck ache ;D
And we found out some more about Jimmy this time. I really hope they continue revealing more and more about the main characters' private life.

I agree with a lot of the same things!
I felt Maura was so present in this episode - and very strong. I loved her facial expressions. It was so similar to Abby, I couldn't believe it. Something about her was different here.
Also, did you hear the way she said "yeah but WHY ME?" in the beginning of the episode? Didn't she say it kind of funny/odd? But I loved it.
I also loved the ending: I knew that she was going to get to the bottom of it, because the look on her face when she lost was a look of "no way, he is guilty and I'm going to find out how."
I thought Rob Morrow did a great job as well. Yes he did shout a littler more than necessary, but he made up for it by the cuteness with the two boys at the end. I like his character more and more, and I like his funny sarcastic interactions with Kathryn throughout the episode. It's a love/hate, and it is so fun to watch.
Things I loved:
-The neckbraces/heating pads - my mom was doing the exact same thing during the episode. Too funny.
-Kathryn hugging Chad! That was so sweet. See? she does have a soft side.
-The flirty looks to Jimmy - those eyes, it was Abby looking at Luka (I swear)

I want this show to make it. I really like it more and more every time I see it. I am going to remain positive and not think bad thoughts about it.

Finally got around to watching this episode and i agree with everything that you've both said. This episode was a complete turn around from the previous weeks. For me, there was more tension, it was less choppy and we're starting to see more of the characters personnel lives, then just being lawyers (i.e Jimmy and his family). But what i really notices was, something in Maura's character change this week (but i cannot figure out what?) whatever it was, it drew me in! I think maybe Maura has settled into her role. I agree with Paige, so much of Abby in her character this week. If the show continues on this path, it has a chance of lasting.

But i just knew that the judge would finally get arrested, Jimmy got his turn at winning last week! ;D

I have issues with my neck hurting too...so I totally felt her pain. Mine is from sitting at a computer all day long. Loved this episode...but I'd probably say that anyway. My "non biased" coworker (who is a guy...not that it matters) is in love with Maura completely...he loves her facial expressions as well. He says it gets better each week!

i just watched the epi and i think it was fabulous. the chad/kathryn hug hehe. and i also loved the end. and when they said 'not guilty', she looked soooooooooo sad. i nearly had tears in my eyes.
while watching the promo and the first epi i thought nahhh.. i didn't really like it. but now.. it's my new fav show i guess

Tara, it's funny, because while I was watching this past weeks episode, I had a moment with Kathryn & Chad where I was like, "Oh, my god. I think I want them to hook up." Love that I'm not the only one!

Certainly an improvement over the first two episodes -- it's obviously starting to settle down and find its legs, which is good. Hopefully we can see it hold out...

Yes! They would be extremely hot together. I see all kinds of chemistry there - and I love that he's kind of afraid of her but also wants to please her and is rather in awe of her. There's nothing even remotely hot - or even warm LOL - about Rob Morrow to me.

If I can see Parminder's episode and a Chad/Kathryn love scene before they take it off, I'll be satisfied LOL

I totally agree, though I'd also like the DVD with the first 13 episodes
And b.t.w. if I weren't married I'd definately try to steal Sean from you Tara

[Tara]

I'd definitely love to have those episodes on DVD. Maybe we could talk Tom into doing a bootleg release for us diehard fans, LOL.

Sean is absolutely adorable, isn't he?? And we know Kathryn isn't opposed to dating younger men, so I think a little fling with Chad would work. They could be working late at the office one night and.....

[Martine]

I like the way you think !

[Tara]

Am I the only one who didn't know that there's commentary on this episode from Tom Donaghy on ABC's site? It's not audio commentary, but written comments that pop up - some great ones about Maura. I liked this one, LOL:

Take it from someone who’s known Maura 25 years – you do not want to call her “lady.”
