Is anyone else ...

watching In Plain Sight? 

This show is freaking hilarious, and I've totally gotten hooked (to the point where I'm trying to get my hands on Mary's cross-over episode with L&O:CI - though I suspect she won't be as hilarious and sassy in that).

The only thing I don't like about it is Lesley Ann Warren (but then again I NEVER like Lesley Ann Warren).

Mary is almost too sarcastic to function (which means I love her to an insane degree), and she totally studied at the Olivia Benson school of Hot!Cops.  They should cloth her in nothing but jeans and tight tops (or in nothing at all).

Fred Weller is comedy gold.  His delivery of simplest lines cracks me up.  I also cannot believe that that man is 42 years old.  He's not just aging like a fine wine, he's NOT aging like a vampire or something.  Seriously, Marshall is dreamy.

Is is just me or does Nicole Hiltz (aka Brandi) look a lot like Ashley Scott?  I think she looks like Ashley Scott which makes me predisposed to like her (though I must admit Brandi becomes more likeable with every episode - especially when she isn't burdened with scenes with Lesley Ann Warren)

Also, is it just me or do Mary and Brandi have more chemistry with each other than they do with either of their "love interests"?  Seriously, they bicker like an old married couple.  It's presh.  *sobs*  DAMN YOU IN PLAIN SIGHT FOR PULLING AN ALIAS AND MAKING THE HOT CHICKS RELATED!  *sobs more because I don't think I can actually slash them ... well, maybe if they were both drunk*

I concur on all points! lol Although I do vote for the no clothing at all option because she's just...yeah. What would really be hot is an Olivia/Mary crossover fic with Elliot and Marshall being all snarky together. I did love that in the second episode they really showed Mary's soft side when she was watching over the kid.

I also cannot believe that that man is 42 years old.

I'm sorry, what? *is bewildered*

His comedic timing is just so on point every. single. time.

And yeah, I also agree that they need to either, A) do away totally with Mary's mother or B) they need to make her less...cliché.

Could not agree more. I'm so glad that I started watching it.

That scene in the pilot when she was all naked and glistening and post-coital made my pants happy (not even Raphael - hey, I remembered his name! - could dampen the hawtness of that scene for me)

Mary's already crossed over onto CI, so it could totally work because the shows are in the same universe (though that makes the comment that Mary was watching "too much law and order" on this weeks episode a little head scratching).

I did love that in the second episode they really showed Mary's soft side when she was watching over the kid.

Yeah, I really enjoyed that. I also enjoy her scene with Brandi when they are bickering back and forth, because there's an affection there that softens her a little.

Yeah, I know! I would have pegged him for early 30s. His wife = lucky. I have a major boy!crush on Marshall.

So true. I love that he's so understated too. Like his "I know my wood. Don't" was pure gold.

And yeah, I also agree that they need to either, A) do away totally with Mary's mother or B) they need to make her less...cliché.

I want them to get rid of her. Just let her move in with eye-eyed Dan and his pretty dog and get her off my screen. Even less cliche I think I would still dislike her because Warren's acting style just bugs (in fact I'm convinced that at least like 40% of my dislike is based on the characterization and not just the writing)

I think they need to make the mom less cliche. Because, for reasons I can't understand, I kinda like Lesley Ann Warren. You can beat me up for that.


Otherwise, completely agree on all the IPS love. And I would kill for Olivia/Mary fic.
