[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 280769, member: 23"] Ha ha. Yes. Sometimes typecasting can be a brilliant thing. Yes, that's my experience with this one as well. There was a lot about this one that felt like it was going for a novel approach for a change. Setting it in Universal Film Studios makes me wonder if perhaps this one was rushed and they made use of what they had rather than location scouting. I found myself hypothesising that the last minute feel was down to Peter Falk's contract negotiations, which explains the "in-jokes" about Ward Fowler being in contract negotiations. The fact that there are only three episodes in this TV season only makes me wonder even more if they were really on the back foot this year. Though I must confess the fact that there are so few episodes makes an average episode feel even more disappointing since it's a third of a season. I was hoping for pure, concentrated greatness from these three stories. [/QUOTE]
