Damages-Just a Reminder

Just a few more thoughts on Damages. If you have not seen the past two seasons, you might not want to read this. However,  if you are like me, you may have forgotten some details from two years ago. Gregory Malinas had  a videotape which contained incriminating evidence on Arthur Frobisher’s crime (think Enron). Gregory [...]

Damages: All That Crap About Your Family

Usually, I end the blog with this kind of question, but this week, I will just begin-What is it about those boots? Zedeck (Dominic Chianse) brings them to Louis Tobin on Thanksgiving day. Lenny takes them out of the apartment on Thanksgiving night?

In the March 29th episode, the members of the class action suit against the Tobins [...]

Damages: “Drive it Through Hardcore”

Hardcore is how Patty Hewes (Glen Close) played it in this episode. She gets to Carol Tobin and convinces her she won’t tell the ADA about Carol’s part in Danielle Marchetti’s death. (My advice, Carol, watch your back!) Through Carol, Patty confirms Tessa Marchetti has indeed been lying all along.
A kinder and gentler Arthur Frobisher [...]

This week Arthur Frobisher (Ted Danson) returns as an environmentalist introducing his Whirlwind Initiative. (think T. Boone Pickens)

Damages: “You Haven’t Replaced Me”

If you have watched past seasons of Damages, you will find a continuing piece of dialogue, “trust me.” And, if you have watched past seasons of Damages, you will know that when a character says “trust me” don’t do it!
This episode is filled with the continuing cat and mouse play between Patty Hewes (Glen Close)  [...]

Damages: “It’s Not My Birthday”

Damages: “It’s Not My Birthday”

What does a horse, Uncle Pete (Tom Aldredge), Ellen Parsons (Rose Bryne) calling the shots, and bloody feet have in common? One of Patty Hewes (Glen Close) dreams.
What does it all mean? I decided to google dreams and this is what I found on dreammoods.com. To dream about a horse means [...]
